I can't see how... you don't have a high competition chance against the teams so that spoils fun, and you don't have the internal team rank competition.

yousa nosa understandies!
I DONT CARE about competing with other teams. I couldn't give a toss what team is better... Besides all you need is one guy who is system admin to to 1000 work computers and you can steamroll just about anything!

For me its about crunching. Just crunching. I like to see what IVE done. Its about getting the job done.

Even if you don't care about competing yiou can help to support a team. And you can also see what you processed when you're a member of a team... all member information is the same + a team page.

No no... not trying to change the subject, aren't we?

You will be assimilated, changing subject is irrelevant.

Oh no, we have Star Trek geeks that are getting their terminology all FUBAR'd!!

It's "conduit", not "conduct".

It is subtitled in Dutch... how should I know how to spell it.

It's a shame they aren't broadcasting Star Trek episodes atm... it is fun to watch.

Hey, don't go blaming ME for the fault's of your nation's sub-title'ers. Why don't they hire you? You seem to know what's going on in any language.

And yes, they should broadcast it ATM. At least here in Canada we have the Space channel, which give the whole series reasonable airtime.
