This invitation arrived today:
Hi Vaughan, hi AMD Users,
here we go again. From 05 May to 19 May, the tenth BOINC Pentathlon [https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pentathlon/] will impose the known, but also new challenges, and [sg]SETI.Germany[/sg] warmly invites all enthusiast teams to join.
While the basic concept of five disciplines at five projects of course remains untouched, there are again some innovations [see also https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pe...n_Rules.html]: Javelin Throw is a fresh and new discipline and requires the teams to cleverly split their resources, as the rankings are not based on the sum of all points, but only on each team's third best day out of five (not necessarily consecutive) days. This year's Marathon will take place at a subproject of the World Community Grid chosen by the project administrators. The preferences of the participating teams are taken into account, with some limitations, for choosing the projects for the other disciplines.
Until 27 April, the teams can sign up and vote for their favorite projects using this form: https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pe...g.php?&lang=en. So, don't be shy and join:
It will be exciting again at the BOINC Pentathlon!
Best regards
pschoefer
