[email protected] New Donors: How to Read the EOC Point Chart

642 Views 14 Replies 11 Participants Last post by  MadCatMk2
Since new donors maybe overwhelmed at the beginning, and want to figure what the heck is going on (and where on Earth can they find their stats in a sea of 1200000+ donors), here's a l-o-n-g screenshot to explain the most important details.

The most important thing to remember is OCN needs to be above that thin dark green line. If it falls below it, EVGA will get even more of a hourly points advantage. We have to out produce EVGA because getting to #1 is only half the battle, the other half is keeping that #1 spot!

Nice job man! +rep!

~Gooda~
Nice one.
Maybe you could add how to get to folder's own stat's page & what's shown there.
Nice~~
But still a little overwhelming for new folders... let them settle in a bit before swamping them with all that!!!...
How about:
The stats they really want to know about...
Their own stats!!

(OH CARP) I was gonna use your stats for the "sample" page! But couldn't find em- but, you DO fold for OCN-- right?!!

Anyhow, without all teh fancy graffix-
If you go to Here
And just put in your folding name in the box where it sez "Name Search"
You'll see a page similar to: My Stats Summary- everything you really want to know!!!


and then at the top of it- just click on your own name and you'll get to the User's Team rank!

See the point spread- who on OCN you're about to PWN- Who's about to dust you!
Those are really the only two pages you need- unlees you're a Gibby, or Nitteo -in which case you don't really need the guide!

Anyhoo... It's just so nice to see so many [email protected] threads on the leader-board- I really hope everybody is gearing up for next weekend! !!

Cheers

(don't forget there's also a quick sidebar Vista gadget that gets you to your stat page in one click!)

You might also want to mention that when we experience a drop in PPD, it is sometimes not because a huge farm is down but that the Stanford servers are down. I know that there are some instances when my and everyone elses stats will not update for a long time due to this.
outstanding post. I know that I've seen that particular page 100 times in the past day, but didn't really know what exactly was going on. This isn't overwhelming for a new folder. I figure, if we can comprehend the installs, etc.. we should be able to find our own stats. If not, those links are already listed in the member check-in.

great job pointing that stuff out.

Edit: (400th post!)

True. But it'll be more common that a mega farmer's rig went down, than Stanford's site. When one of the big producers does go down, folks will see a huge drop. Important to point that out in case donors thought half the OCN's folders went playing CounterStrike.


ADDED: I'll pretty up the chart later tonight. Did it while folding, and system resources was taxed!! lol

I've noted this thread in my guide but just noticed the images are no longer available.
Could you re-upload the images here?
