Tanpaku Update - August 2006

[Nflight]

As of this morning we the Team Effort have slipped into 4th place, and congratualations to All the Team members that have made it possible. Since we are young as this project is young and has just been introduced to the other BOINC projects with being capable of running on version 5.0 or better I think we are doing a wonderful JOB Everyone.

Thanks to Dave Mitchell who has graciously taken over 1# place to lead our Team to top spot or close to it. I would also like to make mention to one of our newest members; The Phoenix. The Phoenix has moved up in points so rapidly he has given our team a tremendous boost to pass 4th place and in about 3 days we will be in 3rd Place.

Thank You everyone who helped to make this all possible! ! ! :!: :wav: :greenjumpers: :shockingzap:

3rd place, congratulations everyone, but we will lose the place very soon. Too many people have found this project pleasing to run with numerous updates from the Administrators. Quick fixes to bugs and pleasant working atmosphere from the Project leaders make this project worthy of your machines. Come help us maintain our position :!:

:D :D :D :wav:

Please remember as of Wednesday August 9th Tanpaku has posted they will be turning off the server for maintenance, grab some work units to crunch while there down.

Any questions please contact me or look at the main page for details. Look on the right hand side in the grey area is where the news is posted.

Upgrade and maintenance of TANPAKU server have been finished. You can use BOINC client Ver. 5. We appreciate your continued support.
They work fast. :) It's close to 1:00 pm of the 9th here and they're already finished.
Then again... I don't know what is their timezone... :roll:

Everything is showing offline to me

Yea... that's odd... I guess that note on the top of the page doesn't refer to the state of the current maintenance then. Maybe it was left there since the days of their switch to boinc 5?

Project is back online all servers are now back online and running at 100% capacity.

We have regained 3rd place, then lost it and regained it all in 24 hours. Seems Boinc@Australia has stopped running the project completely and so all those still on course are now retaking the position of Third place.

Thank you to everyone who continues to maintain a presence on Tanpaku. I will be offline for a few hours this afternoon as electrical work will be performed on the whole house rewiring project. Can you say more power ? :!:

I seem to be the only one having troubles, seems I am unable to receive new work units? Is anyone else having the same problem as I am? The server says everything is A ok :-k :dontknow: :signhelp:

You're not alone...

I received a message back (on the Tanpaku message boards) already from someone else complaining the same thing as me, There fore we either wait or move to another project till their return, Hmm where shall I put my efforts?
Predictor is down, tanpaku is out of work units?
How about Rosetta - Pause - Still in the realm of Protein folding, and I am really far back on the numbers on that project. I wouldn't mind being in the top ten if possible, but 56th place is just not me.
