    I'm not going to lie, getting a colourful name would be an impetus for me to get some moar points.

    If they did it would prob end up being pink not that that would matter, some official recognition would be nice.

    Definitely liking the pink name @ 1million points idea! (Mainly because I've already got a million!)

    And top 100 should definitely be a target for next year

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    I will be coming for you and Nibbler again soon, I've had to install windows 3 times in as many weeks and actually had stuff to do on my PC and i don't like folding when I'm using it in case something goes up in smoke

    But I've done two GPU3 clients today and neither have shown up on my stats
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Word on the street is that there was a slight problem and all the Fermi WUs completed yesterday morning have vanished, with no hope of the points ever being received

    Looking at the list there isn't much of a choice:

    Dark Red = Mod or SuperMod
    Orange = Admin not employed by HEXUS
    Light Blue = Admin employed by HEXUS
    Dark Blue/Navy = care@HEXUS
    Red = ATi-multimedia.care@HEXUS
    Dark ish = Antec.care@HEXUS
    Green = HEXUS.Social membership

    Maybe the hexus forum could make our username's a different colour when we hit a million points milestone, like they do with the social lan guys when they do 5 or more lan parties?
    That's actually a REALLY good idea. Or have some sort of star system like ebay uses....

    Seriously though, it might be worth mentioning? From Hexus point of viewer though you'll probably get the folks in gaming moaning that they want their own star system. It might be somehting that can be untiversally adopted even. Someone can get stars for pawning X noobs at farmville similarly to us getting a million points.

    Think that's definitely a plan....
