DLS2008 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 The PNY Folding Contest has started on the XLR8 Gaming website. They offer prizes for top contributors (Hint, Hint road-runner) and weekly random drawings. You need to register with them. The registration is where the problems arise. They need your username, passkey, and email address. However, they say all of this is put into the client when you set it up, but it's not. You don't enter your email for folding. Also, how do you get a passkey? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

d3bruts1d Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 The passkey is an option you can input into the GPU client. Not sure about the console version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLS2008 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 The passkey is an option you can input into the GPU client. Not sure about the console version. I know it's an option, but do you just use any old number? Do you have to ask Standford for one, or do you just make one up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 You have to register for a passkey, it is linked with your email address. If you use a different email address when you cant find your passkey it will give you a different passkey. What are they giving away and how often?

DLS2008 Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 You might as well sign up. It looks like you just give them your username, email and passkey and you're set. I didn't see anything about having to be on their team or anything. It appears to be a just sign up kinda thing and you're entered for prizes...
