Alright I'm pass hasselbad!!!!!!!!!!!! Back in the top five again.

[mutz_nutz_uk]

OK. Just checked the stats for SoB, and we have 70 members in our team!! Wohoooo.

Only prob is, it appears that only 30 of them returning results.

Hopefully they on dial up, and we will get some results from them over the next day or so. Would be a shame to have all those names, and no power.

We need more power!!! Securiteinfo starting to catch us, and they crunching more than us. Not good

MA or CP we need to push this thread onto the main page peeps. Get pushing this project, or we gonna end up in the lower leagues.

[dperino]

CP did put it on the main yesterday

http://www.majorgeeks.com/

Maybe that's how we got the extra members. Looks like a lot of the entries are the same people with the names spelled different.

Drop on in here and say hello folks. We would like to meet you.

Hi

Just joined the team. I have to apologize, most of the username with "gunner" is mine.

The Client kept on dying on me for some odd reason during signon, and I didn't realize the usernames were being registered each time.

I've got it running now. Got some catching up to do.

Aiming for the top half of the list.

Me too - les, lesmond, lesrobertson and subhumanhamster (don't ask :D) are attempts I made, trying to work out how to cancel them now.

[dperino]

Hi Rubble. Glad you could join in.

Good to see you again Lesrae.

[Corporal Punishment]

I removed a bunch of the obvious mistakes. My apologies if I accidentally toasted an account, but it "should" just rebuild it automatically, even if I did.

Perhaps I need a better install tutorial for this one.

Our daily rate just took a major upturn to over the 4m mark. We jumped two places per day!!!

Still a bit behind though. We need yet MORE power to get the top spot on daily production.

Another week at this rate and we will break in to the top 10.

Keep crunching guys!

Oh, and we still seem to have about 20 names on the list not returning results. Grrrrrrr. Shame we cant get them all crunching for us!!
