Who can guess or recall the absolute highest position that Team 10688 has ever held in the Global Folding Rankings?
I think I know, and I think I'm right. But there may be more elder sages out there who know better.
We're 59th now. But what's the best ever Sudhian rank?

When I first started we were 19th or 29th. I don't know if it was ever any higher than that.

when I started late 8/07 we were ranked 50th I think I have been doing my fair share we just need more active folders I have crunched out over 1 mil points for the team since I started.

That seems to be roughly where Mark Foster started cutting back on his folding...

I remember his departure, we never knew for sure what happened to him. Can remember too that someone tried to contact him on the phone but never said on the forums what he found at the other end of the line.

I did some Googling, and I think Mark J. Foster may have become a lead designer for the OLPC project. Of course, I have no way of knowing if it was the same MJF, but the skills matched.
I remember that crazy Shuttle he built with the LCD screen in front, and the folding-farm he set up. I think they were SK41G's? Good times.
Thanks for the history-lesson, 100fuegos. My lame P4/Celeron ass wasn't on it. Even though I think I started in 2001.
The highest I recall seeing us was 17th. We were pioneers!

Wow, 100fuegos screen shot sure brought back some memories. Quite a few Nicks I haven't thought of in a long time.
Icebiker, Colin_Stoner, ShinySteve, Caveman_Basser, and even though their names weren't on there, Zeus, Pith. I can also remember that at one point passing 100fuegos was a big goal of mine.

I also noticed hardly anybody uses the little Sudhain folding logo on their avatars anymore. Notice in the lower right of my avatar. At one point a LOT of the Sudhian folders had them. I just looked and I still had it and I am attaching it for anyone who wishes to use it.

FX Hehehe I have good news for you FactorX, in the attached image we can see till 28th position ... well you were 30 then with just 27,519.80 total points. I have the whole web page (one page only, no linking) Let see if I can upload it somewhre, my ftp seems to be broken. Pudge I used to have it on my avatar, I think I lost it when we changed from the old board... that was many many years ago, I may have it somewhere in my HD. Edit: Here it is just unpack it and remember good old times hehe. Enjoy everyone |

Congrats guys, the Sudhian Folding Team has cracked the top 30 teams and we are up to 286 processors. For being such a young team we are performing very very well. Last week we were the 14th overall performing team. (...) Nah, by then we were among the top 30 but the 14th best producer overall. |
