To give you an idea of my involvement with this - I've got in running 24/7 on 3 pc's at home. When I did a reinstall of 2k yesterday - I had my folding restored within 6 hours. But it mainly comes down to what people are willing to commit. Everybody agrees in principle that it's a good idea/cause, but once guys get the magic "5" to enter contests - they seem to quit.
Personally - I have mixed feelings about prizes for folders - because 1 guy running it 24/7 @ 100% on his 850 deserves it a lot more than somebody running it for a week on his 3.06 just to enter a contest - but how do you gauge someone's commitment? I have an unfair advantage because I use the machines in the house <and no one else does>. I like the idea of having custom titles though because it's a prestige thing and a reward that you can only get by staying an ACTIVE member of the team. Heck make up titles and indicate whether someone is active or not. Make it either by points or WU's.
