The BOINC Championship!

[dAVE]

NeoGen. Temperatures here have at last hit the 80s and I have had to wind the overclocking down. I am also without an optimised client at the moment so I there is a real chance that I will drop below 3000 credits this week. It was sort of agreed that if you were mainly in one league then you stayed there. Can I elect to stay in the Pharmers league because I don’t want to mess up the close contest that I see developing in the regulars’ league? dAVE

[NeoGen]

That's one matter I haven't thought about thoroughly yet...but yes, people should only appear on one league. And that reminds me that I still have to upload the updated contest files... but my net connection is so bad that I can't stay more than 30 seconds online without it breaking down...:?

Well... let's see how it goes this week and I'll think of something. I have faith that you'll still be able to reach 3,000 by the end of the week.

Speaking of race and credits... this goes to everyone -> since my net connection is barely holding up, it might take a bit of time until I extract the base values of everyone tonight. Please wait for my post saying that the race is started, before you dump the stored workunits.

I can wait. I just finished HL2: Episode 1 so I need to make up a few hours. :P

What are the odds of a Prime Grid contest being added? It would be so nice to over take team Picard in style

[Empty_5oul]

if any of the projects have downtime or are not "race-able" on then we will switch (this happened in the second week - possibly before you were here though).

so if any of the porjects we decided go wrong prime grid may take their place. but I would say the odds of this are fairly low.

Ok...maybe next time :?

Or... I could add an extra round for Primegrid. I'll think about it. ;)

Brilliant, I am very happy that this is going ahead...we are a top performing team in PrimeGrid and this race will help us catch up to the teams with nearly 1 million credits

Thanks Neo :D
