Making Foldit more appealing on shorter time scales

I enjoyed puzzle 630, the Quick Frozen Cutpoint Puzzle (http://fold.it/portal/node/993498). Even though you couldn't move everything in it, you could move enough things to make the puzzle interesting, and it got me to think about how sheets can bond to each other and arrange themselves. It would be neat to do other puzzles like this, perhaps some involving mixtures of helices and sheets.

Did puzzle 630, with all its frozen parts, fold faster than an unfrozen protein of the same length would? If so, this could be a good way to make puzzles that can be solved more quickly. Freezing sections as in puzzle 630 could also let us solve larger proteins in the time it takes to solve a normal-length puzzle.

I was perplexed on this matter as I have no idea on how to acquire this with the nodes but it is only form you that I came to lean more on the same. Sincere thanks form my part for this
