Important Chimp Challenge Notice

post #1 of 19
5/12/09 at 1:44pm
Thread Starter 
I know that our Chimp Challenge is completed, but the Challenge itself is still running. For those teams still involved, it is quite important, and they have history and bragging rights involved. Both EVGA and OCN were far enough ahead, that the real race between the other teams is still very important.

As such...
Until the Chimp Challenge is over, please only fold under the OCNs banner. Both OCN and EVGA have been officially warned that tainting the rest of the Chimp Challenge will result in the Challenge being ended early, and that would not be fair to the rest of the teams involved.

There are ways for this to be tracked on the stats servers, so please dont get caught with egg on your face.



Thanks again to everyone that was involved, and lets all cheer on the remaining teams from the sidelines.

Earlier today I made a post regarding this at EVGA as well, though I was unaware about the official warning. Everyone seems to be in agreement with the notion, so I don't think we'll have any problems.

I agree that is was decided it was not a good idea, but there was talk on different forums and here about the potention to do it. I know that it was discouraged, this was just a friendly reminder.

So what does this mean exactly? That we're not allowed to go fold for another team to help them? If so, no problem, I'm back to folding for myself under 37726 .
