    The BOINC Pentathlon consists of 5 disciplines:
    1. Marathon (14 days)
    2. Sprint (3 days)
    3. City Run (5 days)
    4. Cross Country (5 days)
    5. Javelin Throw (5 x 1 day, only each team's third best daily score counts)

    To make the Pentathlon as exciting and trouble-free as possible while at the same time maintaining a maximum of flexibility, all five projects are chosen by a small group of the organizers this year.

    Projects are not eligible if they
    • cannot provide a sufficient number of workunits
    • do not support at least Windows and Linux
    • provide non-CPU-intensive (NCI) applications
    • are test-only projects
    • do not allow the creation of new accounts
    • do not support WebRPC

    Somebody is getting spanked for spilling the beans somewhere, I guess

    Yes that was foolish of Natalia to announce the Marathon before SG.

    If I was admin of SG I would cancel that and select another project then place a permanent ban on any projects Natalia is associated with. But that's me.

    Let's comfort ourselves with the idea that Natalia is in for a big surprise on the 30th, when the gates of the Pentathlon are opened upon her dear project and the hordes are fighting over her WUs -for a full 14 days.
    That ought to quieten her -or force her to react in her usual way, not very quiet at all.

    Oops: it appears that I am mixing up two Natalia's here. Sidock's Natalia is Natalia Nikitina, while I thought her to be ODLK/ODLK1(Latin Squares)/T.Brada Experiment Grid's Natalia Makarova....

    Don't get me wrong I feel it was very poor form to leak the marathon project, however it appears tasks have a 72h deadline so it didn't really help nor harm anyone.

    Any specific strategy this year?
