Now that the CASP8 results have been published, I'm curious as to how we did. The results page is here:

There are results for dbaker and baker-robetta, but I have no clue where the foldit trials fall. Can anyone from the Foldit team fill us in on how we scored?

Ans many thanks to the Foldit team for making it possible for us to participate in this effort. ;)

Yeah, I'm on the Foldit team, and I have no idea either. I guess you'd have to ask one of the biochem guys. :p

It might be nice to have a news post about this, right? It's kind of off-putting to have our latest news item be about bugs and crashes, anyway…

Hey, I just found out that we'll have a news item really soon about CASP8. One of our team members went to Italy for some sort protein-folding conference about it, and apparently the people there were all pretty excited about Foldit. So, he'll be posting a news item about it soon.
