How do I join a team

[kiore]

Dumb question, how often does this crawl? My team (created 2 days ago) isn't showing... I get a homer :-p

If you are looking in the 3rd party stats https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com ... ist.php?s= they don't show all teams you have to reach a certain threshold.
If you aren't looking at that then try doing so your team may be on there.

It should work, see how you get on and if you have any problems report back

I tried a bunch of stuff both nothing seems to have worked. I've put the signature on the back shelf because even if I did get it to work for some reason the statistics aren't correct. When I go through the logfiles and add up all the 100% complete and points expected and total them up I get a total of 1.2 million points March13-21. The F@H Donor stats page has about 641k so about half the points have gone missing somewhere.

This is what is currently in the signature line with some "X X" added to try and force it to show as text

Folding@home has a long history of reliably recording credits/points, but sometimes it does take some time for them to propagate to the stats webpage, especially under the very high load that we're seeing now.

Bill, are you using a passkey with your name?

Yes I understand it seems it difficult to add or edit signatures on this help forum at present. Even though I have one that works I also cannot edit or change anything on it. I assume this will eventually get fixed but at present admins are busy answering questions on how to fold.

NB forum set up that it only display sig once per page and mine on a previous post.

You mean... RTFM? whoops... clear as can be now, nowhere near the threshold yet. Thank you!!!

The first 2 days or so I was not aware of passkeys. When I found out about them I applied for one and received one and set it up in the FAHControl with my User Name. Since then all the folding I have done has been with My UserName and passkey combination. I have not seen any document that really explains passkey and the bonus it provides, but I understand the bonus is significant. One user said it was worth 10-20 times the base amount of points.

If the bonus truly is that high and if in the logfile the expected points assume you have passcode, then the points mentioned in the logfile for the first 2 days PLUS the first 10 WU after I entered the passkey, those points are ALL overvalued. And significantly so, it seems. So maybe there is no problem with the points system, as you suggest, and the problem is that I am relying way too much on the logfile, when in fact I shouldn't be doing that.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Hey BillAnderson, if you are still looking to join Canadian group specifically, you're welcome to join 246627. I recently created it to unite my friends and teammates. This group doesn't have high rank yet, because we started recently and you won't be able to use that custom signature with statistics from ExtreamOvercklocking team for some time.

Hi,
I hope it's ok to post here as I have the same question as the title of this thread. Having read through most of it, I still see no answer to it, just a lot about the stats box. I wanted to join an Australian team and the Stats page showed Overclockers Australia (there seems to be no option to search for Aussie teams). The join team field wants a number but there is no number shown. Seti@home was a lot more user friendly I feel.
Many thanks for any help provided.

You can search for teams on this 3rd party site https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com ... ist.php?s= OverclockersAustralia is team 24 on this list when you click on their team name the team details will appear.
Also this has the team number: https://stats.foldingathome.org/team/24 This could be confusing because they are ranked 25th .
