Support Team Rage3D! Start Folding and Save Lives!

JasonQG · Jul 14, 2002, 03:57 AM

This is long, but please at least skim it.

Do you want to give back to the community? Do you want to save lives, including lives of loved ones and even your own? Do you want to have a lot of fun in a competition? Do you want to win free prizes? Do you want an avatar without 1000 posts? This is what can be accomplished by joining Team Rage3D and running [email protected]

[email protected] is a small program that you run on your computer. It uses your spare CPU cycles to help cure diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's. You won't even notice it, and you'll be doing a lot of good.

Still not convinced? Here's a short list of some of the reasons why you should be running this program:

1. SAVE LIVES
This is the obvious one. It cures diseases. You might save your own life running this program.

2. EASY TO DO
It's easy. You don't have to take a bunch of biology classes or something. Just run a program.

3. COMMUNITY
You support your favorite site, Rage3D. This is more than a video card site; this is a community. This is one of the many ways you can be a part of this great community.

4. COMPETITION
It's a fun competition. There are statistics showing which teams are doing best, and stats showing which individuals are doing best. Think you've got the fastest computer at Rage3D? Prove it.

5. PRIZES
There are prizes! Periodically, we have random drawings amongst active folders for great prizes. There will be more of these drawings in the future, so you better get in on the action before it's too late.

6. AVATARS
Active members of the team are entitled to an official Team Rage3D avatar without having to wait until 1000 posts. They're available in a variety of colors, and all the cool kids have 'em.

Frankly, I don't see why you wouldn't join the team. For more information about the project, instructions to join, and a place to post your questions, head over to the Distributed Computing Forum.

Me too, and I'm not even you. I just confused myself.

Five-seveN · Jul 31, 2002, 02:04 AM

Yes, instead of b1tching over who has the fastest video card in the world, YOU YOURSELF CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Stop running that damned piece of crap 3DMark program and HELP HUMANITY OUT! Run a simple program and contribute to a greater cause. Who gives a flying **** about a benchmark score. After all, chicks dig hundreds of folded work units more

Blackhawk · Jul 31, 2002, 07:48 PM

Yes, what am I doing here with my little Athlon XP 2000+?

C'mon, don't put those idle CPU clocks to waste! This is very easy to do and is for a good cause...I've seen many people with 1 GHz+ proc's around and am just wondering where all those CPU clocks are going. @Five-seven: I got laid twice thanks to folding.

superbotje · Aug 1, 2002, 06:19 AM

Don't even think about it, just do it!

Nepoc · Aug 21, 2002, 10:46 AM

Well there is a problem... I have been folding but it usually is a waste of time. For some strange reason the program constantly crashes my computer. Actually it crashes all my computers. I have no idea why, they are all very stable with everything else.

However I haven't tried it on my 486 DX2/66

Are you, by chance, running overclocked? [email protected] tends to stress a CPU unlike anything else out there, and will reveal stability issues not present with anything else. You will also notice that your temperatures are a few degrees hotter than any other program at 100% CPU usage will produce.

Nepoc · Aug 23, 2002, 08:09 AM

Nope not running overclock and infact I tweaked everything so that it could be as stable as possible. Still after anywhere from 1 hour to 20 hours it hard locks my system. I'm trying to track it down, and believe it or not may be related to videocard drivers!

The reason I say that is thats the only other thing that crashes my computer. If I play DAoC after an hour or two that will also hard lock my computer, and sometimes I get a BSOD with one of the video card driver files listed. So I'm going to try a few different drivers and see what my results are.

JasonQG · Aug 24, 2002, 01:59 AM

Good luck. Let me know if you figure it out.

JasonQG · Sep 8, 2002, 06:07 AM

Come on, guys. We're slipping. It's the easiest, most productive thing you'll ever do.

Wotan81 · Sep 16, 2002, 11:08 AM

Hi!

I had to reinstall my computer and now I only have 1 finished work instead of the 18 I should have! Can you help me fix this?

That number is just a local statistic. Your totals on Stanford's stats and Statsman's page are in tact:

If you want you could change the number to 19, or 20, or whatever.

Edit the client.cfg and modify the line "local=(number goes here)"

Mine says "local=611"

***Lupine*** · Sep 19, 2002, 02:52 PM

I installed the [email protected] client several days ago and set the team # to 64 to join the rage team. However, the online stats is listing me on team 1520 (Vegas Odonist). Yet in the config, it still says 64?

What's going on?

Thanks!

What's your username? It's possible that there's somebody else with the same name on a different team and you haven't turned in any work yet.

Username set to Lupine. I've completed one work unit (88% on #2).

Thanks!

There's somebody else with the same username as you. Check it out here:
http://folding.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/...ed?name=Lupine

At the top is a huge list of all the work this other Lupine has done. At the bottom, is what you have done so far for Team Rage3D. All is in order.

Well, that sure isn't me ...

I've changed my username to 7up1n3. That should do the trick.

Thanks for the response.
