    Actually, it looks like something funny is going on. HardOCP isn't even listed anymore. This may just be temporary.

    Yeah looking at extremeoverclocking.com it seems as the former #2 and #12 have disapeared.
    (Overclockers Australia and XtremeSystems Folding At Home.)

    And then looking at http://folding.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/searchteamstats (which is newer), it seems as two more have disapeared. Rank #1 and #2 in extremeoverclockings latest list ([H]ardOCP and www.overclockers.com).

    Has there been some massive cheating, is there bugs in the stats database, or have the database been hacked.

    OR...
    Overclockers Australia
    XtremeSystems Folding At Home - Sounds like an overclocker gang.
    [H]ardOCP - Overclockers
    www.[b]overclockers[/b].com

    Is it maybe so that stanford has started doing sanity checks on the data? Let different people run the same WU, and if the results differ (too much) classify the users as "possible cheaters". Then do more cross-checking to see which of the users did the cheat. And if a team has too many users with too many detected cheats, then throw out that team.

    However, some people have said that FAH doesn't fail hard as other calculation intesive programs (like prime95) if some errors happen. The errors will just carry on and give an incorrect result. Such errors is more likely when you're pushing your CPU with overclocking.

    Short story:
    Have these teams overclocked their CPU to the point where they turn in a lot of garbage WUs?

    But right now, lets celebrate our 2 digit position. :D

    That was short-lived. Back down to 106, (104 if you exclude the aggregate teams).

    Oh well. I wonder what it was that got those teams temporarily delisted?

    In any case, at least we've passed those bastards from Request Foods and Bandwidth Place. :p

    im thinking they are doing some updating and the data might have gotten a bit messed up. Right now it looks like im ahead of wavey in one of the sites. :)
