Deep Impact: Thank you for joining the QJ.net Folding@Home Team! |
Ó
Yay for saving lives indeed, Barakku (Unregistered). We can't help but feel very, very grateful (and lucky) for the overwhelming response to our invitation to you guys on PS3.QJ.net to join our Folding@Home Team. We still shake our heads in amazement every time we see the stats. There's probably only one word to describe what we feel: miraculous.
As of a few minutes ago, the whole QJ F@H team, composed of 399 members, has completed 3,642 work units (WU) of research calculations, with an average of 442 active CPUs. Among all the teams registered, QJ ranks 621 out of 57,762 - and now you know why we're still amazed. We have accumulated an aggregate of 837,391 points towards our team's grand score (ceritificates for points and WU are reproduced below).
As a point of comparison, lemme take you guys back to before the PS3 launch (in Japan/North America). Checking our pre-PS3 stats back then, only PCs were netted together, and the QJ F@H team was only composed of a handful of volunteer PCs. We did some good, but the stats weren't this good. What a difference a PS3 and an open invitation can make!
This isn't to set aside the efforts of our long-standing PC volunteers, though. Having been there longer, they've achieved so much through patient, hard work in the background - much like the tortoise racks up the miles one step at a time. And who knows? Perhaps our team's PS3s are carrying on follow-on research on the products of our veteran PC members. We all pull together here.
Our team. Has a certain affectionate ring to it, don't it? When we think about it before we sleep, it's like, "Damn, perhaps someone I love might one day be stricken with some dangerous disease, but by that day, we will have the knowledge to cure them." It's that thought that keeps us plugging F@H in our PS3 for as long as possible, every chance we get. I'd like to think it's the same thought that drives you guys, too.So again, from the bottom of our sometimes-jaded, but still pleasantly surprised hearts, we thank you. Thank you for getting QJ F@H to where it is today, and tomorrow, and the days to come. They say it's hard to believe in miracles sometimes, but it's harder not to when you're looking at one on your PC screen, one work unit at a time.
[If you've got the PS3 or PC to spare, by the way, not hooked up to F@H, and are still interested in joining, by the way, the digits you're looking for are 52781. That's Team ID# 52781.]

Join team 55265, the official playstation.com folding team :)
QJ needs to work harder to support their readers. Not just expect everyone to join up with them when they post negative articles about the ps3 every day.
Oh, and will everyone leave their PS3s on? Look how few of us have been actually running constantly? It's down to a third of the people who have tried it!! What the hell are you all doing.
Oh, and first.
playstation.com shelters you from all that because it is the official site.
but dont get me wrong, i luv the ps3
