Tour des Primes 2025

[Dirk Broer]

Nine days into the 2025 edition of the "Tour des Primes" (Primes being plural, so "Tour de Primes" is just bad French)
Despite major efforts, our team is prime-less this Tour -so far.

EAGLE from team Romania holds the Yellow Jersey, having scored 15 primes so far, closely followd by Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP (14) and [TA]Skillz from TeAm AnandTech (also 14). Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP leads in the race for the Green Jersey (highest total score). Biggest Prime and Red Jersey so far for ext2097 from SETIKAH@KOREA, who discovered a PPS

Day 10 update

EAGLE from team Romania still holds the Yellow Jersey, having scored 18 primes so far, closely followd by Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP (16) and [TA]Skillz from TeAm AnandTech (14). Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP leads in the race for the Green Jersey (highest total score). Biggest Prime and Red Jersey so far for the team-less moshk97, who discovered a GFN-18.

Day 12 update

Our team finally found a prime! And of course Vaughan was the lucky one, doing the major effort.

Meanwhile EAGLE lost his Yellow Jersey to Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP (19), who also holds the Green Jersey.
The Red Jersey is still worn by moshk, for his GFN-18.

Day 13 update

Vaughan found a 2nd prime! ...and I just received a mail from PrimeGrid that I also have found one: 1469*2^2192717+1 (660077 digits)

Day 15 update

Vaughan found his 3rd prime, a mega-prime this time!

[KarmannGaz]

Yay! No luck for me yet, but I'm still trying for a PPSE one.

PPSE is definitely the subproject to go for, badge-wise (I have a "Do You Feel Lucky?" coming up for the mountain stage as special surprise)

Day 16 update

The Red Jersey has changed hands and is now on the shoulders of Johnny Rotten of SETI.USA, for a GFN-18.
The Yellow Jersey is still firmly on the shoulders of Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP (27 Primes by now).
The Green Jersey changed hands a few times (Trotador, Icecold) but is back again -for the time being- with Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP.

[vaughan]

PPSE odds are about 1/21,000 tasks so this is your best chance at getting the P2025 badge. Put your GPUs to work on GFN17mega tasks, odds are about 1/38,000 I think.

Aperture_Science_Innovators from [H]ard|OCP is the Eddy Merckx of this Tour: he is #1 at every ranking at the moment! Biggest Prime, Most Primes and Highest Score. I do hope my "Do You Feel Lucky?" is lucky indeed...
