    If anyone wanted to get some TPS WU's then now is your chance since loads of WU's have been added to the database.

    Don't forget to tick "Run test applications?" in PrimeGrid preferences otherwise you'll just get normal primegen WU's.

    So far it's one a week at my current rate of crunching. I'll never have as many as VirusX but then i don't have the machines like he does.

    Yo, well done Scooter. Its a nice feeling isn't it.

    Primes being pretty uncommon beasties and that so it gives you a warm fuzzy feeling when you can see tangible rewards for your efforts on a project.

    1700 WUs and I haven't found 1 prime yet. I'm gonna be stuck on PG for a bit.
    EDIT: Congrats Scooter.

    This was a pleasant surprise.

    A Titan is "In the mid 80's Samuel Yates began the list of "Largest Known Primes" and coined the name titanic prime for any prime with 1,000 or more decimal digits. He also called those who proved their primality titans"
    Thats way cool... congrats...
    I’m Dangerously Under Medicated!!!
