Teams \ [Team] MyPS3 - Folding@Home

smASHer says:

maybe its like that, but i would think it'd be more like the computer's clients, where if your running some intensive programs etc. then your folding@home speed goes down temporarily as it just scales back its usage of the processor. The PS3 version might be able to release back cores for the game to use, so if its a first-generation game, the game might only need the power of 3-4 cores, Folding could use up the extra? im not really sure, but it could be possible to run it in the background im sure.

good work

Bev said: Howcome theres a thomas dude in our team that has done 5 work units but has no points?


he might have returned all work units too late (over 5 days from date downloaded to date uploaded (returned))

I've posted two great threads over at the Whirlpool Forums (internet related website) forums.whirlpool.net.au/
with one about focusing on PS3s - forums.whirlpool.net.au/
& another focusing on general internet users - forums.whirlpool.net.au/
Sorry i havne't put links for the MyPS3 team, but Whirlpool already has a team, & i'd just get bagged out on the thread.
BUT its all about increasing awareness of this great project and getting more & more participants!

Cheers guys

I think it helps people do more WUs, because as you can see, there is a lot of competition.

And plus, the glory when we make big achievements!

Let's try and make it to the top 1000, guys!

smASHer says:

go for glory! its good this thread has made 'sticky' status lol but maybe admins could make up a small banner or something on the homepage promoting Folding@Home and the MyPS3 team? i know a lot of big folding team's sites dont have banners or nothing on the homepage coz they're afraid its 'unpopular' for their visitors but i think they shouldn't be afraid to promote such a worthy cause
