    I have no idea about those projects, does anyone know if they all support the same sort of sensor hardware by chance? They seem to all be around the same kind of "family" of projects, like the spin offs of Climate Prediction.
    I wondered about getting one of those sensors for QCN in the past, but now looking at 4 of them I wouldn't want to have to get a different device for every quake catching project that pops up.

    As far as I can discover you should be able to run all eight projects using the same detector (and by the way: they all claim to run on Raspberry Pi).
    As they don't have work all eight of them all the time this seems to be the way AMDave has scored credits in four of them.

    The android app uses the mobile phone / tablet sensors, when the device is plugged in to power, fully charged and the screen is off (ie when the phone stationary and not in use).
    If you have an android phone or tablet you can install the boinc client from the app store.
    The is a URL based menu option for adding non-listed projects like these ... once you find and dig through the menu. It wasn't immediately obvious.
    Instead of selecting "Add project" from the main menu, select the projects view and open the sub-menu via the 3-dots icon on the top-right.
    This should give you the option to "Add project by URL".

    PS - I found it wise to add an existing project that you normally crunch on a PC first to get your CPID onto the device so that you don't end up with a CPID split by getting a new CPID for one of these projects when you register with them for the first time. Hopefully that will save you a CPID-splitting headache.

    Updated the 'Quake Catcher Network' table. The two Stanford based continuals actually have work at the moment too, unlike their Mexican and Taiwanese counterparts.

    Quake-Catcher Network Continual (Taiwan)

    Quake-Catcher Network Continual (Taiwan) is the first QCN spin-off that for me does *not* throw the error
    "Message from server: This Project doesn't support computers of type arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf",
    leading me to think the errors lie in the other QCN's server departments, not in my client/OS combination (BOINC 7.4.23 client running on Raspbian Jessie).

    It -Quake-Catcher Network Continual (Taiwan)- just says there's no work at the moment (after downloading *all* needed files).
    In the list of apps for the project there is even a Raspberry Pi 2 application!

    Edit: Quake-Catcher Network Continual (Taiwan) is now running on my Raspberry Pi B+, now hoping for it to communicate well with the accelerometer on the Sense HAT...

    If so, I can write code so that the impressive LED array of the Sense HAT will respond to the application...

    Both EMSC / CSEM projects (EMSC / CSEM and EMSC / CSEM continual) seem to have had a database failure, the team names for AMD Users are 26 and 16, respectively.

    What a bummer! Quake Catcher Network (Taiwan) Continual does not export stats.....

    Well, I've disconnected the Pi B+ and have started the Pi 3 in its place.
    The Pi B+ will go on headless and under solar power, Turing should have lived to see it -after all, it crunches Enigma...
