[Norton]

I think my rigs will be at full spool by the start of the challenge.

I should be as well- have an upload issue on 2 rigs that should be cleared up by the start time.

About 2 hours to go before start time and there are 26 Teams signed up!

Thanks in advance to all of our crunchers for their assistance!!!

(I am out of the loop, where have GPU wu's gone?)

the 7000 series cards ate them all up, there are none left to do now

 

[TheGrapist]

i'm in,will get my i5 3570k running and maybe a mobile i3 if it doesn't start on fire

 

[AlienIsGOD]

3570K and 2400 have a 3 day min buffer and 6 day max work buffer, been like that for the last week. totally g2g on this challenge. Currently i run one rig at all times, i just switch from pc to pc and start as needed, but bedtime both rigs crunch for about 7 hours each

It's getting crunchy in here. Hotter than I'd like, but acceptable for now. I believe I'm on a generic kernel which I hope to remedy soon. Kind of a rocky start, but we're off!

We have some more additions for the game giveaway courtesy of Vinska

Will update the list later today (OP post #2)

 

[AlienIsGOD]

for the win 7 key prizes, is everyone going into that draw or just ppl that need/can actually use a serial key ?

 

[Peter1986C]

I suppose it is not possible to use a US key outside the US? By my knowledge MS likes to limit the amount of keymaps supported so localisation may be an issue. I don't know whether MS cares about "exporting" the keys, though, speaking in terms of legality.

 

[brandonwh64]

Got my amd quad going so I am back in!

 

[Norton]

I'm thinking we can draw the Win 7 keys as a side drawing when we do the hardware drawing.

Does that sound OK?

 

[Nordic]

3 cores running like champs.

 

[manofthem]

Great to see everyone so ready and up to spool, with even more prizes

Just another thought: there are 4 codes for Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. But considering the issues that dozer recently had with his giveaway, I think we need to limit that game to US residents, only because the codes seem to be region locked, with users outside the US being unable to activate the code.

sounds great, maybe ppl that need the key can submit their names for a separate list?
