How do the scores work?

Every unit I fold nets 186 points, but some people seem to getting all sorts of points per WU.

FOMz, you've averaged over 200 points per WU. What are you doing different to me?

Initially my work units were all 50000 whatevers in size but recently they've been random so I guess that would make a difference - Tashymans is a good example

No mate.

All I did with my settings was cliick on advanced, change my core priority to 'slightly higher',put my CPU percentage to 100% and my checkpointing frequency to its lowest setting (3 mins). I also put my draw rate up to maximum in the display tab.
 
Yup mine are random as hell recently. Using the old Folding from Tray thang, it tells me what score you get for the current work unit. Recently I had a 500 odd point one, as well as a 200 point unit and the current one is worth 755 points.

That'd be the graphical interface as opposed to the console one then

We're doing well, nearly in the top 4000 now!! Lets keep folding out there!
 
It would be sooo much easier to stride up the league ladder if we had a few more folders...look at the start of this thread to see how easy it is and join in...

If I can do it then a strategically shaved chimpanzee could so you bunch have every chance of success!
 
Like Vim said its so easy and you don't even know its doing it!

It just folds in the background and when its finished one WU(work unit) its starts another automatically so no need to do anything realy once its all downloaded!!

Come on folks what you got to lose?
 
1st WU finished wahay next one commenced. Its so easy to do so come on goaters and join in!
 
Well folks we cracked the 4000 mark on the team rankings:PDT_Xtremez_19:

3927 of 66605

All for a good cause and no effort needed!!!!
 
The goat team is now ranked at 3755 of 66997

We're climbing up the stats quite quickly

Even I'm doing this, and finding it easy, afterall I don't have to do anything once it was downloaded

Would be moving up quicker if we had more folders
 
I must remember to set up the new vista machine to do this on the weekend !
Mono, I might need a hand removing the service as SB jnr is now the proud owner of my old Athlon 2100 :PDT_Xtremez_28:

Just to be a misery guts, I reckon that a lot of the climbing we've done so far has been through defunct teams and part timers. At some point we'll probably catch up to the back of the pack and stay steady.

Some of the front runners have webites and forums dedicated to folding and have special PCs just for it. Some of the members have 9 or 10 units thrown together from old cast offs stacked up in their garage that just fold 24/7. Good for them, but I just don't have that much cash or space.

We have over 4k members and growing every day...If more took part we could get up to a credible position...I think somewhere under 1000 would do...

Good point Vim. C'MON YOU LOT. JOIN IN.

Of course, I'd fold more myself if I didn't spend so long playing a game that hogs my processor.:PDT_Xtremez_40:
