But what about all the other jobs....they'll be lonely and never get done cuz everyone's tweaking these "advantages"!:(

Ahh...that's the reason so I've been struggling so hard, because I'm running all my foldings without any tweaks. I just run it, enter my name, team, no, no, no, no, and let it run.

So I'll get all the jobs everyone else passes up and discriminates against!

We are still folding for the possible cure of cancers and other things. Just that we are doing it faster and better than some other teams.

Points are great, just not the most important thing.

well if u had a p4 u'd use the forceasm thing anyway to make the stuff go faster. i really dont know what advmethods does, do we eliminate some proteins by using this switch?

If you go to the server status page and look out to the right of each server you'll see that each one has as many as 3 identifiers. FAH, ADV, BET

There are certain proteins that are under Beta testing and these are on the servers with BET.

Certain other proteins have passed their Beta testing, but are not quite ready for release to the general folder. These have a ADV on them.

Then after a protein has passed all its tests it is released to the general folding computers. FAH

If your using -advmethods you will be first directed to the servers with ADV. If there are none then you'll goto a FAH server.

Seems that each generation of proteins that are put out have just a little bit better points per hour assigned to them which is why you get a better point average by using -advmethods.

Of course if you run into problems with your setup while running with -advmethods you are expected to report the problem to Stanford so they can look at it and maybe correct it.

Not to T crap but how do you tweak your folding client?
