Title: Congratulations - top 1000 teams!
Post by: Calum on September 23, 2009, 03:47:51 AM
Well, the CH folding team has more or less reached the top 1000 teams.  I say more or less because different stats sites give different ranks, either 999 or 1001.
Anyhow I've been waiting to say this for a week or more, so here it is.
Congratulations to the whole team on reaching this milestone, it's a fantastic achievement and I'm proud to have folded for team 67290.
I look forward to seeing your further progress, 3 million is just round the corner for you.
Once again, well done.

Regards,
Calum
Folding@Home team 171165 (from "the site which shall not be named").

You're not retiring on us, are you?

You're not retiring on us, are you?
Wasn't planning on posting again, but in short, yes, and I already have.  You may see a unit turned in under my name once in a while, if so it's a friend's computer that I don't know if it's still folding - if so, it'll be changed over.
I didn't like abandoning the team, especially before the 1000 mark and close to the 3 million milestone, but I've had to.
I'm not going into all the reasons, I'm not here to cause any aggravation at all and just mentioning the name of the team I fold for is enough to aggravate some members here.
You won't see me here again in the foreseeable future, barring something extraordinary.
I would've given some notice but I don't want to be drama queen so I just didn't say anything.

As I said, I look forward to watching your further progress, and our teams' paths may well cross in the future.
Sincerely, I wish you all the best.
