So that's how they're getting to be #1--by cheating. :-)

It was a real pain for me to figure out how to join the team--
it wasn't obvious at all from the website or the client program.
I had to manually enter the number "346" when prompted for team
number.

It seems to be working now, and I'm climbing up the ranks quickly
(I have a two fast machines that are always on, always on the net,
and idle for most of the day).
