WCG Daily Numbers

[Arjai]

OK, so, some juggling around today, Sunday Funday.

5,912,790

A decent number, for Sunday. However, we did lose some ground.

Down to 10th we go!! But we do get to move back into the 10th Street Mansion.

Sure it's nice but, last time we were here the neighbors called the cops. I guess 10 kegs and 400 people was too much of a Party. But really, I don't think it was the Party so much as, all the cars were clogging the road. If we do that agian, minus the cops, we need to rent some party busses to shuttle people in from the Downtown Ramps.

Also, whoever invited the people that pissed in the pool, they don't get to come back! This place has 13 bathrooms in the main house and the pool house has ten toilets! The pool is not one of them!!

One more thing. Let's limit the invites to 4, or 5, each and try getting only 5 kegs. It was fun but, a little over the top. If we half the size of the last one, the food will last past 9 PM, and everyone will not have as much to clean!!

Or, we can just skip it and Move back out tomorrow! It's a nice House but, it's a little old. Creaky floors, sticky windows...and the a/c unit needs to be replaced and updated!! Let's not stick around for it to break.

Let's just bring an overnight bag, let the staff have a night off and order up some pizzas. I am already missing my top floor digs on 8th.

Let's put the boxes to a 100 and let'em rip for the next 16 hours!! This Team deserves Better!!

Crunch ON!!

I can't recall any of this - probably really was too much of a party...

Also, whoever invited the people that pissed in the pool, they don't get to come back! This place has 13 bathrooms in the main house and the pool house has ten toilets! The pool is not one of them!!

Sorry...

Let's put the boxes to a 100 and let'em rip for the next 16 hours!! This Team deserves Better!!

You bet! Love your posts - please continue. Oh, Mary just told me to say hi to you.

 

[Arjai]

Well, not bad!!

We are definitely heading in the correct direction! So, onwards to the top!!

6,801,636

Let's get out of this Crazy big house!!

I'd like to be able to stop by and see Mary, on our way back Downtown!!

Let's Crank 'em up!!

10th place is so, April...yeck!

Let's keep moving up!!

We CAN DO this!!

Crunch ON!!
​

 

[Arjai]

OK, so, this Team likes the big House on 10th street?

So much, that we have lowered our output?

Let's all get this back together! We are not a 10th place Team, although it is nice remaining in the Top 10, we are better than this!!

6,585,993

A good number, no doubt! Much better number than last Summer! However, we all know what this Team is capable of, and it is better than 10th!!

It's Summer, I know. Heat, and Life, can deter us from Crunching, But we have let it go, far enough!! Crank them up, we have not, yet, bested XS! That should be a goal of ours, now, this Summer. Once the Temps drop, they are gone, along with a couple others that we have already bested.

Let's put a few good days together and put XS behind us, however temporary! Let's also get out of tenth...it's too close to out of the TOP 10, for my comfort!!

Good Night TPU!!

Crunch On, HARDER!!
​

 

[Arjai]

Alrighty then!!

Up we GO!!

Mary is Happy!!

6,601,639

Nice Number but, It was U of K dropping the ball that REALLY got us here!

Let's keep PUSHING those CPU'S!!

It's nearing a time that is going to end, We NEED to PUSH if we are to accomplish a besting of XS. I see no reason why this should not be a worthy goal of ours!!

We are the Best Team in the Universe, how can we not beat XS, for even One Day?

Turn 'em UP!! We have the ability to shut me up, about this! Let's do something about it!!

Crunch, MORE!!

Sadly my numbers will be dropping off for a few weeks. My 18 year old central air conditioning unit went out yesterday, and it's just too hot to run anything but my main PC. I only have one small single window air conditioner for a back up, so the only room in my house that has A/C is my bedroom. It's either crunch ... or sleep in comfort. (I'm only employed during the school year ..... so there are no funds to replace the central air right now.)

That sucks Bud. Summer w/o AC is miserable

Any idea what went out on it? Sometimes it's a cheap/easy fix... last time mine went down it cost me $80 for a fan motor and a start capacitor.

No worries on the crunching- S--T happens, doing the best you can within your means is 100% awesome!

FYI- where's your avatar? I miss seeing Ralph when you post!

That's a good run for an a/c system. Maybe it just needs to be recharged. But you'll probably save money in the long run if you get a newer system with higher efficiency, assuming that works with the budget. Wisconsin has a rebate program for new equipment that might save you some money.

I saved a lot of money when I replaced my oil furnace. The previous one was so old that it only had about 60% efficiency. The new one (well, several years old now) I think is over 80% efficient. Same with the a/c but there I don't know the numbers. I just know that the old a/c compressor that sat outside was huge, about the size of a medium refrigerator on its side. The new one isn't much bigger than a large dorm frig.

6,526,962

Um, this number is, aaa.. Smaller?

OK, so. Let's at least try and do something? For even a day? When are we ever gonna have such an easy look at taking XS down?

I don't foresee any, THE MOMENT IS NOW!!

Look how close we are!!

Yesterday,

Tuesday, we were REAL Close!

I know we can, Let's do it!!

CRUNCH, ON!!!!
​

 

[Arjai]

6,413,942

Um, we are going the wrong way!!

OK, so, in the morning, I am gonna dump a bunch of WU's I've sandbagged over the last few days.

Let's everyone push the boxes to 100% From the moment you see this until 7PM Central US time. If we all do this together, my sandbag won't go to waste and we will best that team I want us to beat!!

It will be easy, just follow the instructions above, and we should make a brilliant move up!!

It is a way of making this week a little brighter!!

Who's in?

If half of us can make an extra 10 grand, and the other half, and extra 15-20 grand, it's gonna be a landslide. I will be dumping close to ten grand, in the morning.

Let's go, and Get THIS!!

Crunching 100%....GO!!!

Sadly, it was the compressor that "burned out" in my outdoor condenser unit. My uncle (he has his own A/C heating company) verified my findings.
At least the system lasted 18 years with no problems.

On a little bit of a plus side, #1 .... I go back to work in 3 weeks (being employed only during the school year means "NO" income for me for roughly 3 months during the summer)
And .... #2 I can bring my quad core pc at work back online again. AND #3 ...... it will be starting to cool down in a few more weeks... so I will be able to fire up the other crunchers in my spare bedroom until at least spring!

Sorry bud, that's terrible on the ac but happy that work is about to resume

My (business) partner's ac just went out and it sucks big time!

 

[stinger608]

My god @manofthem , without ac in Florida I'd have my head stuck in a freezer somewhere.

Amen to that. I don't know how he does that. On top of it all, he has quite a few animals, so imagine the smell He does have 2 wall units, which is better than nothing, but still... my heart goes out to all without AC, no matter where you are

 

[t_ski]

Sorry Arjai, it's all my fault. That's what I get for taking a vacation

 

[thebluebumblebee]

I lived in Orlando for a short period of time. I intentionally rode my motorcycle in the rain to cool off.

 

[Arjai]

OK, well.

5,864,506

After my day, I was hoping this would at least cheer me up.

Just a tad disappointing.

And tomorrow is Sunday, a notoriously low day.

At least, I don't have to work, this one. That will, also, probably change soon.

Work has been completely effed up, and it's none of my fault. Yet I seem be the one being punished. I am not looking for sympathy, just stating what's on my mind, since my girlfriend seems to not think I want to talk about MY day with anybody. For instance, "How was your day?"

None of that happening. Thanks!

Oh well, perhaps(?) we can pull the shizzle out and make a run back to the TOP 10, on Monday?

Crunch On!!

Much of the US is in the midst of a heatwave. I'm surprised by how well we've kept our numbers up this summer.

^^^ This! We're doing just fine imho.

Reminder, some of our Team members will be heading back to school soon so their output may fluctuate significantly as they move stuff around.

Remember back 2 summers ago when our daily average was somewhere in the neighborhood of 2.5-2.8M, 3M on a good day?

Great work team!

Sorry. Sort of a buzz kill last night.

Work. And Women.

Sometimes they can really make Arjai an Unhappy boy.

Last night, I was a little pissed at the World. I tried not to let it affect me, but it did. This sudden drop in production, well, it was the little pea in the mattress.

Bygones, OK? Also, despite my meanderings in this post, I am fine. I promise! I have too much to lose to go on a rampage, I know that, and it keeps away from shooting anyone in the face!

I like my life, I like me and it's just little parts of it that, occasionally, gang up on me, and change my mood, for a short period of time. I am generally proactive and not very reactive, however, I am a failure at perfecting that.

/So, back to the reason you came here...

11th tonight.

Back to the Digs on 11th Street.

Also back in the gatekeepers spot. It's through us, to the Big Time!

Crunch ON!!
​

 

[Arjai]

Nice up!

6,511,307

The rambling U of K, as of late, kept us from taking 10th. But, we still remain as the Gatekeepers. And although U of K has been up and down, they are, overall, worthy of being in the TOP 10. Despite themselves, sometimes.

Good push TPU, Let's keep on pushing, somethings bound to give!

Crunch ON!!
​

I have a E-A-R-L-Y wake up so, Good Night!

 

[Arjai]

"gather 'round, let me tell you a story...."

There once was a man, a decent man, a hard working man. He helps others, gives sound advice from a wide range of experiences in life. For instance, he's a veteran of the Army, built cars as a kid and even roamed the Country as a Karney, among many other things. Has friends from all over and meets new friends nearly everyday.

Most people don't take offense, when he smiles or laughs.

But then, there are those people, that fear him, attack and lash out. Irrational, immature and spiteful, are these people. Oftentimes they disguise themselves as his friend, so as to hurt him from close in.

This man has been hardened by these attacks. They often shape the way he interacts, it is not of his doing. This man wants to be kind, wants intimacy and friendship. But he is guarded, because of those that hurt him.

But they still get in and hurt him some more.

But life goes on and so does this man. Rebuilding his trust in others from the ground up, again.

That, my friends, is a story of hope and the shattering of hope and the resilience of hoping again.

I hope WE can get the weebalos to take down the XS Team, before it's too late.

6,543,707

LOOK! It's like they are TAUNTING US!!!!!!!!!

Let's get it ON!! Take these flaunting XS teamsters to town!!

It CAN be Done and NOW, it Should be done!!
WE are the Best Team in all the known Universe!!

We cannot allow this team to taunt us! We can beat them, let's show them!!

Crunch ON!! Come on Team!!

Ramp it up! If just for a day, we can score better than them, doesn't that excite any of you?

​

 

[Arjai]

Ok, well. a good number, as usual.

So, it seems I am alone in this quest to take XS down, before the weather changes and they fly away. Being that is the case, so be it.

I shall fluster my way through this, from now on, with no more to say about it.

6,228,764

Crunch ON TPU, Gatekeepers of the TOP 10.
​

 

[Arjai]

OK, another nice number!!

6,021,347

For a hot-ish Summer, we are doing PRETTY darn good!

Makes me a little antsy. I want to enjoy the nice weather but, I can hardly wait until this team is heating up their homes, this Winter!!

*Deep Breath*
*Relax*

OK, sorry. Had a moment right there...

Kinda like that ^

Crunch ON!!
TPU Crunchers, are the BEST!!
