Hey guys,
I know how hard a lot of you are working on at increasing Folding Participation on overclock.net and I appreciate it a lot
Overclock.net isn't only about Folding though, we are a very big community with many projects, one of which is BOINC, another distributed computing system. They are approaching the 10 billion points mark which the OCN F@H team has already broken.
They have a similar event to our monthly Foldathons and their next one, at the beginning of November is sure to put them over the 10 billion mark. I will be taking a couple days break to show my support for BOINC as well on my Team Competition GPU and would love to see the rest of the Folding section show that we are all capable of helping the cure, even if just for this small event.
Without further ado though, here is a much more detailed message from the BOINC Editor himself, gamer11200.
Let's show OCN's BOINC team that we are all good people, maybe we can steal some of them for our Foldathons in the future, or even the Folding Forum War.

From November 5th to November 8th, the Overclock.net BOINC Team will present its 23rd installment of the monthly BOINCers Gone Bonkers (BGB) event. Similar to the Foldathon, this is an event 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.
This BGB event marks a special milestone for our BOINC Team. We are closing in on the 10 billion total credits milestone and we are throwing a celebration to mark the occasion!
I personally invite you, the Overclock.net Folding@Home community, to join in on this event. Join our BOINC Team in helping us meet the milestone and you could win some sweet prizes for participating and learn more about BOINC in the process! (Did you know that Folding@Home was once a BOINC project?)
