    Oktoberfest Challenge!
    From September 21st, 2019 Primegrid will be running an AP27 Challenge to celebrate Oktoberfest! The world's biggest Volkfest is held annually in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, with more than six million people from around the world attending. The Challenge starts at 11:00 UTC and ends 5 days later on 26th September at 11:00 UTC. Work units from the AP27 project, which are downloaded and completed during the challenge will count towards your challenge score. The last AP26 was found on 17th November 2018. Can we find an AP27 during the Challenge? For more information and discussion, please head over to the official challenge thread: http://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=8764 Good luck!

    And we all know why these 'Oktoberfesten' attract so many people...it must be the beer.

    So set my computers to run this project, then walk over to the festival of Beer, and crawl home if you can....





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

    …Pursuit is always hard, capturing is really not the focus, it’s the hunt ...

    A pretty good result all round for us I think, 10 finishers in the individuals table, team ended up at 9th, and fun watching Vaughan sneak up the individauls chart to position 3 after giving everyone else a head start! Also I found 6 new APs (or rather my computer did), nice bonus.

    Team floating in mid-table at position 30 out of 80 at the moment, must be the beer taking effect? Hic!

    A couple more of our team member names appearing in the individuals list now and AMD Users starting to rise in the team table (well, by one, we're at 29 now!).
