Extreme Overclocking updates F@H stats every three hours, beginning at the top of the hour. Takes them about 5-10 minutes to update.

The hours of update are 6AM, 9AM, 12 noon, 3 PM and so on, in US Central Time Zone (CST). Translate to your time zone.

Congratulations all. When I kicked this off a million years ago now, or something of that ilk, I'd no idea that you capable folk would take the team and run so far and so hard with it. Well done.

[brokenportal]

Thanks very much for starting this team. You planted the seed that has turned into this mighty oak and will be continuously now dropping seeds on the heads of the pro aging trancists around it. The tree is very vast now so it should get a lot of traffic walking beneath it.

[Ben_Wraith]

It feels good to have been a part of this. Congratulations everyone!

[dnamechanic]

Everyone, thanks for your comments and images for the Top 100 celebration.

Thanks Reason, for your $2,000 to the Methuselah Foundation on this occasion.

[brokenportal]

Nice, $2,000 contribution. Today has been like christmas. And extra big thanks again to Dnamechanic for keeping this folding at home team dialed in to the imminst frequency and keeping that "Oak Tree" watered every day. I dont think we'd be here this year or any year soon possibly with out all your work.

..and a week before Christmas, excellent progress.

Special Thanks to DNAMechanic for what is particularly hard, CONSISTENTLY being the back-bone of the project with the reports and ongoing encouragement for all members new and old.

Also for the Chung-meister for actually executing a huge proportion of the research single-handed. Buy the guy a white coat!!

Well done chaps.

[kismet]

Great job. Now we need a "The Longevity Meme F@H Team - To Get to Rank 50" thread...

[maestro949]

Great job. Now we need a "The Longevity Meme F@H Team - To Get to Rank 50" thread...

I've got an idea for getting us to 50 and perhaps much further. I'll unveil it a few weeks from now. For now, savor this victory

I'd also like to throw kudos to DNAMchanic. Awesome job staying on top of the numbers and project in general. Kudos to Mind too for the promotional efforts.

[JediMasterLucia]

Congratulations everyone!

[Mind]

At the meeting on Wednesday we thought the top 50 in 2009 would be an achievable goal.

[MichaelGR]

Congrats, nice work everybody.

Personally I crunch Rosetta@home for the LifeBoat Foundation team (which I started), but if I had a PS3 or GPU that could handle F@H, I'd definitely join this team.

Cheers!
