Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

I sent in an anonymous submission to try my luck for us and they didn't take it either. Such a shame since this project is so humanitarian.

But I'll be UnCivil Liberty's got the right idea

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

I have a feeling the only ways we are going to get mentioned again are:
A. All IBM teams merge and it becomes ~~Big Blue~~ Selson Blue vs. Slashdot
B. Linux client gets released.

One word for you : Slashback.

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

Well Slashdot's only possible competition is the full IBM foce. Behind whom we are behind. Not just does Slashdot have much less accumulated points, when I did a quick calculation a few days ago IBM (all of them) were calculating at a faster rate than slashdot.

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

I just added another machine to the task, so I can have on running 24/7. It's an IBM server of all things.. heh heh.

#1 in all rankings is great too :D

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

Slashdot deserves a lot more credit than it's getting. I learned of WCG via slashdot and I recruited several machines. I'm sure that's a pretty common situation.

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

Isn't SourceForge owned by OSTG, formally Andover.net, the people that Slashdot sold their soul to a few years ago? We could probably get them to join us under the same banner to rule the world.

Re: ./ consumes all #1 positions

I think once a linux client comes out, out numbers will double, and then we might even be able to fight IBM in the future. Nice job all
