Welcome overclock.net one and all. It is time to bring this contest out of the depths of the earth and have another test of the OCN communities internet speeds. This was a big hit in April of 2008. We are also going to broaden this example and continue this with www.pingtest.net , while still in beta, it proves to be a fun and useful tool. Fun in regards that it passes the time while at school, and useful when attempting to diagnose a connection problem to certain geographical areas.

Speedtest.net Event:

Rules:

1. This is open to all users, and all types of connections. Residential, Educational Establishments, and Business connections. Each connection will be split into different groups. If someone submits a speedtest.net link they must clarify for which of the above it applies to.
2. Members will be able to submit an entry for each residence (Home, Business, School) however, please, only make one post. You are free to edit your posts however many times to get the best entry you can.
3. All entries must use www.speedtest.net for their entry.
4. All entries should be formatted as below.

Entries in this contest will be rated on:

• Download speed

Special Note:

• You will note that there are three options for the type of Residence this connection will be tested. There will be three separate entry groups, if you would like to enter for home and business, or home and education, feel free to do so. If anyone has been confused by this, I do apologize.
