Awesome! I've been a part of team hack-a-day for a while, but I'd be happy to put some cycles into unfiction. Rock on Jamesi!

I too have been Folding@Home since January. A fellow uF member asked me to join his team. I thought a Team Unfiction would be a great idea. Thanks for starting it.

ok, I just have to say that I started doing this a while ago thanks to the geeks2go folks. What I was doing a tech thing? Yes, I was. But I will try to stop with them and do the unfiction group if I can figure that out. Smile

From the F@H icon in your systray, right click and select configure. On the User tab, just change your current team number to the team unfiction number, 69464.

I'm an old seti@home processor that kinda started wondering why I was doing it and haven't been active for a few years.
I tried to get involved in the 13thlabour project but the client kept bringing down my machines. So, I'll give this a shot. Sounds like a very worthy cause.

Rose: If you run the non-GUI client with the -config switch, it'll let you set-up your UserID and Team(69464) fairly easy.

I tried the Windows GUI and it (for me) was a little too intrusive on system resources. The non-GUI isn't as pretty, but is quite a bit faster and is pretty non-intrusive.

Every once in a while it seems to cause an IE instance to hang but I just close that browser session and reopen it and the problem goes away.

jamesi: You must be working on a really nasty work unit.

I've been folding for a good while now but since my upgrade to vista the random crashes have been nuking my work units (everytime windows crashes you lose all progress on the current unit). If I can actually get my client producing again I might be able to contribute a bit to the UF team, I'm currently folding for Custom PC but I doubt they need my WUs as much as UF does Wink

Oh, joy! I was wondering where I might find the perfect team (now that I'm using my PS3 and folding away), so I Googled Folding@home Unfiction, and bingo! Very Happy

Joining!

Edit: Any idea how I get my name added to the list of honor on the Unfiction team's section of the Stanford site? I've completed a WU and refreshed the site, but... no Mokey there...

Edit again: Hehe. Nevermind! I was too fast for my own good! I'm up there now. Rockin' out at 1 WU. Cool
