PrimeGrid Birthday Challenge June 12th (1 day).

[NeoGen]

I'm in too with my AMD X6 1100T, all 6 cores are on it!

My only drawback is that in such a quick challenge most of our WUs are not even going to count because they will be waiting for validation for longer that 24 hours, but we will do what we can.

It would be nice if BOINC had an option to allow WUs to be sent specifically to members of the same team instead of randomly, that way we would validate each others WUs real quick.

Team stats and individual stats

Looks my WUs are too old to count for the challenge. I did score 279 credits today, only 40 of them counted...

For these PrimeGrid challenges (as I understand it), all WUs which are sent out after the start time and reported before the end time will count for the challenge, regardless of whether or not they've been cross-validated by the WU's second user. You won't get the credits on your own account until the WUs are cross-checked and validated as ok, but the challenge allows for this and puts the credits on up-front in its stats tables, then only removes them if the WU is later found to be invalid, which is why the positions can move around a bit for some time after the end point. I think this is how it's working anyway.

Three and a bit hours to go, I can see four of us on the leaderboard at the moment - Vaughan at position 137 (22,750 credits), you (Neogen) at 253 (6,346 credits), me at 262 (5,587 credits) and Brucifer at 344 (997 credits), top 300 get points towards the annual totals at the end. Team AMD users currently at position 28 in the team table for this challenge (top 100 get points at the end). Looking good! Better than the last one anyway.
