Which team should I fold for?

And you somehow think that you're going to get an unbiased opinion here? I vote for Team AnandTech (number 198 if you're referring to Folding@Home), and I will personally hunt down and administer 40 lashes with a wet noodle to anyone in this forum who votes otherwise. 😉
 
Obviously posting on this forum will get results for Team Anandtech, and posting the same question on others will get results for them.

And, whichever forum seems to have the most people watching the thread, will have the highest number of votes.


What I will do, however, is try to point out some of the good points, outside of purely the DC project 🙂

I feel that here, on Team Anandtech, you will be with the best people on the internet. The people here are quick to jump in and help with any problems you're having, whether it be anything from setting up a DC project, something wrong with your computer, or even if something has happened in real life.

We have Team members that have literally had their life saved by the people here. David McOwen is one of those people. His life was literally shattered when the State of Georgia bought fines on him for running RC5 on computers he had at a place he was working. The people here donated money, time, support and ideas, which helped David overcome the huge legal bills, and the stress bought on by this ordeal. He for one is one person who owes his life to the Team members here.

We also have another person, Roy Cain, who is going through terrible difficulties with his home life, and, again, people here have donated money and offered him a roof over his head, all out of the kindness of their hearts.


Going back towards the computer/DC side of things, we have a very close community. The Team morale is super high, and there is support all round, and congratulations and celebrations when the Team passes others, and when members hit milestones.

I think, that in choosing Team Anandtech, you will become a member of the best Teams in the world, maybe not in rankings (however you can help change that), but in the people that make up the Team. Team Anandtech is not about the numbers (although that does play some role), it is the community spirit, and the feeling you get from being here.


I wouldn't be anywhere else.

You will learn more here and never find a better resource for any questions you may have about ANY DC project than any other forum/team. (Does than sentence even make sense???) This is the place. Fold with the TeAm!
 
The question you should ask yourself is "Why shouldn't I fold for TeAm Anandtech?" 😉
 
Your question shouldn't be 'What can TeamAnandtech do for me?', but 'What can I do for TeamAnandtech?'!!!
Go TeAm!

Kk
 
hey, yer here...... why not 😀

(BTW, are you talking about F@H or Distributed Folding? Of course, my vote is the same either way)
 
Fu**, i lost my whole earlier text... So I will say everthing shortly:
I you like join UD - be part of Team wanderlust (their are very nice - just look at UD forum !!)...
But other DC - don't found cooler team then TA !!

But what to do, if you can't decide... The best way I found... go to fficial forum of DC you like to join & post thread like this 'Searching for team to join...' and then just look at replies... You can chossee for example the fifth reply, or the first... It is your decision - and no matter what team you will choosse, ti will be good as long as you hepl running any DC !!
