What is the Foldathon?
Every month we hold a Foldathon, or FAT for short. The FAT is a mad dash over a 2 day period where we fold on as much hardware as we can get our grubby fingers on and try to amass the most points possible. It is winner takes all. Okay, that's not true, but if you're lucky you might win something, probably not, but you will have made a honorable contribution to the science behind Folding@Home. What is that science you're probably asking, have a gander over here to learn more. All units crunched for team 37726 count, even if you can only manage to complete one unit, but if you're already a folder, there's no excuse for not folding for the full 48 hours
How it works:
Sign-up and run Folding@home for Overclock.net (team number: 37726) during the specified times. Those who Fold will be entered into a drawing to win the prizes listed below. If you still don't know what Folding@home is or need some help getting started, feel free to post here, make a thread in the Overclock.net Folding@Home Team forum or check this guide: FAHControl v7 for both CPU and GPU
----> SIGN UP HERE <----
You can verify whether or not you're signed up by looking for your name here in the member list.
If you don't submit any points during a Foldathon, you will be removed from the list, this is to push for active participation in the event.
You are required to re-sign up each month for the prize option, this is to hopefully push a little more active participation in the event as well and prevent prizes going to people who aren't active in the community.
When:
December 2019 Foldathon - Monday 16th - Wednesday 18th - 1200 ET/1600 UTC
