When I crunched for the team (just before BOINC was released, so only 4 WUs) I didnt do it for any other reason than to win. I am pretty sure a lot of people got into competing and forgot about waht it was actually about. No chasing aliens here.

That's exactly how it is. I looked for aliens for OcUK, contributing about 6000 WUs. I switched over to folding and never looked back. You don't have to enjoy particle physics, little green men, computational microbiology, or anything else to enjoy DC. I dare anyone to join an OcUK DC team, particularly the shiny and stylish Folding@Home project. I bet a tall glass of stout that you get addicted like the rest of us. :D

Heh,

I thought it was a forgone conclusion that some other boys would win it by a country mile?

This wont mean much to most, and its not that accurate, but I guess the guy deserves a credit here.

I'm still crunching but hadn''t been in the DC forum for a while, and been on BOINC too.
What great surprise news this is, I thought the Germans had it sewn up.
Well done all who contributed to the cause :D :D

I think Queen put it best when they said

OcUK are the champions - my friends
And OcUK'll keep on fighting - till the end -
OcUK are the champions -
OcUK are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause OcUK are the champions - of the world!!!


anyone wanna do a OcUK - S@H ver? Here are the full lyrics

I've paid my dues -
Time after time -
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime -
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face -
But I've come through

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world -

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls -
You brought me fame and fortuen and everything that goes with it
-
I thank you all -

But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise -
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race -
And I ain't gonna lose -

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world -
