    October competitions

    It's October again and Brigade du Cosmos and BOINC Russia have jointly decided to go and search for the little green feller,
    offering no less than five consecutive challenges for Seti@Home. But there is more to do:


    October 03 to October 06 - Crunch with the best, or lunch with the rest ! [Season 1 - Episode 10-12 : Oktoberfest Crunch]
    For this tenth edition : all in Munich to celebrate the last 3 days of the beer festival [Oktoberfest] before blow of cannon is fired at 12:00am ! A sandwich and a beer with our german friends within a friendly party internationally known ! Merry beer festival to all ! But don't forget to leave your computers switched ON for crunching during this challenge ;)

    October 07 to October 08 - World Architecture Day
    BOINC Russia has gone through an encyclopedia of rememberance days and has build upon that to celebrate this day. Will they start building with or for little green men?

    October 08 to October 09 - World Post Day
    BOINC Russia has gone through an encyclopedia of rememberance days and has found the post day to celebrate. Will they send post to the little green man?

    October 12 to October 16 - Moon* Shine Challenge
    Sicituradastra has left us with the choice to either drop our pants and show them our behinds or -more likely- to try to beat them at DistrRTgen.
    Be sure to have the right characterset file in your project map!

    I'll try to close the gap with my medium artillery, but you'd better watch out for the guys with the big guns...

    World Architecture Day has a little over four hours to go and still we have three members in the top-100: Dufman, B Johansson and me. I'm so glad with the load of AstroPulse I've been handed out by the project, helps me to maintain position!
