Okay, I'm very very new to the whole RC5 thing but it sounds really cool and I just might dedicate a PC to it if I get interested enough. All I know so far is that I downloaded the client software and it says "1 cruncher has been started" but it doesn't seem to do anything beyond that? Am I missing something? Am I supposed to do something else? I don't quite get it yet...

BTW - what is the average kkeys/s for 1 PC?

I think I got it working now, is 616.72 kkeys/s good? I have 5 more pc's I could get on this, maybe could build a couple more "cows", should I? Would it really make enough of a difference?

~Wiruz - btw it seems like the keyserver is down for the moment - so some of the webpages required for setting it up, and joining this team might not be accessible.

...Looking forward to a race...

Should I join the sysopt team? I calculated the max keys/s for 3 of my comps and it came out to 4 mkeys/s.

Oh yeah, how do I know how many blocks I'm doin?

Oh yeah, one more thing: How do I flush?
