How far ahead is considered unfair before joining the race? <grin>

I don't think I could join; I'm at 870 now, and doing 20/day, so probably just another week for me to the four digit mark.

well you can include me if you like. I don't know if I'm gonna ramp up anymore or not, but I'm gaining on kwatt and polo for the time being.

I'll never have more than three of my own computers + the one at work but I'm toying with buying a pIII 500 and downgrading the celeron to replace my current third machine which a p166mmx. That would give a piii 450, piii 500, cel 300 @ 450 and a k6III -450.

Next weeks stats will look very different ,everyone much closer together I'm guessing

Getta outa here!:p;) ,hehe ,your too much of a big gun to join us in this race ,unless you want to spread 2/3rds of your output between us all;):D

BK

Hehe ,not my first race ,I've raced MisterM when we fist joined up ,it was a race into the top 100 then (out of about 140 members).
I also raced against Regulator &amp; others ,I forget who now.
This is probably the biggest race I've had so far ,5 people now :).

BTW I was thinking of calling the thread 'a race to 1000K's' but I thought an RC5 member might sue me for breach of copyright;);) hehe

I can't guarantee i'll keep up this pace, I might not have access to the piii 450 forever.

Hey Ass1 ! You're doing great these days ! :)
And Kwatt too ! :)
I must assimilate, I must assimilate,I must assimilate, I must assimilate,I must assimilate, I must assimilate,I must assimilate, I must assimilate,I must assimilate, I must assimilate...... ;)
I'll try to put another PIII 550 on the battle field. :D Perhaps tomorrow ??? Check my stats. ;)

[not to be read by RC5 TA members]My keyrate will fall because this PIII is actually crunching RC5 24/7[/not to be read by RC5 TA members]

[to be read by RC5 TA members]I've just assimilated a C433 crunching RC5 24/7 and shall try to add another PIII 450 24/7 (this one is not sure :( ). :) [/to be read by RC5 TA members]

Polo-

I think that we can hold off DCypher@Poland and Team 3D Now! in Gamma.
Maybe you should switch back that K6 to Seti now.

Sorry A1 :)

ack!!! Assimilator1 you just ripped past me! I tried adding a celery 500 to my herd but now my Mom wants it off right away... she doesn't like how it dials up on its own even though it hangs up in 10 minutes... ARGH

Man I wish my Dad would hurry up and give me the money to build his new office computer! I need some more cows!

MUCMAN, why don't you setup setiq and keep a little buffer there. then you could monitor it while it DL'd new wu's. Plus it could be your secret weekly flush :)

Ass1 : My K6-2 450@500 is actually crunching Gamma Flux. And TA is doing very well at Gamma Flux so I think I could point my K6-2 to the SETI side just to race a little faster... :)

I guesss I need to learn how to use SETIq then... is there any way that I can only allow it to dial-up at a certain time?

Mucman, you can either set up SETIQ to connect at a certain time of the day, or you can have it connect only when you want it to, by running a little batch file.

Hey kwatt,

Don't worry, I don't think its gonna be all that. I'm only producing like 7 something WU's a day. We'll probably have time for a beer as I go by.
