This is a milestone BOINCers Gone Bonkers event. Join the Overclock.net BOINC Team as we push for the 5 billion credits milestone!

Similar to the Foldathons; this is a 48-hour period where everyone fires up every computer they have, and tries to earn as many credits as they possibly can in an effort to boost our team ranking in both overall ranking and per-project rankings.
It's also a great time to take a break from gaming to increase your credits. Plus, it raises awareness for BOINC and distributed computing as a whole. Getting word out is crucial for the long term stability and success of our BOINC team, and we hope to get some new long term BOINCers in the process.

As of this post, the following are being donated

if we achieve 5 billion credits:
($300) - EVGA GeForce GTX560Ti 1280MB 448 cores - Donated by Admin
($100) - Ducky Keyboard - Donated by Admin
($100) - Ducky Keyboard - Donated by Admin
($50) - 8GB (4x2GB) - Corsair Vengeance DDR3 ram - Donated by Hydrored (Added on Feb 28th)
($40) - Used SpinQ CPU Cooler- Intel 1366/AMD (link) - Donated by Tex1954
($25) - $25 Kiva donation - donated by Overclock.net
($10) - Overclock.net lanyard - donated by Overclock.net
($0) - Run any BOINC projects of your choosing on Tex1954's AMD 1100T+HD6990 computer: Donated by Tex1954
($0) - 3-Day Pass for TrackMania² Canyon - donated by gamer11200


Note that the Ducky Keyboards and the GTX560Ti will ONLY be given out if the team achieves 5 billion credits by the end of the event!

39 members so far. If you join, meet the credit amount and we hit the 5 billion mark, you have a very high chance of walking away from this event with a prize. (Well...everyone wins a prize, knowing that they helped humanity and all...count it as 2 prizes if you win a prize! biggrin.gif)
