    Found a Prime Worthy of the Top 5000

    Earlier today, I received an email from Primegrid stating I found a prime that was one of the Top 5000. This was a surprise, never expected to find a prime to get in here.

    Anyone else here in the team submitted any primes?

    A few people have submitted primes, I'm taking note of them on the wiki.
    Vaughan is currently the one with more primes submitted (almost 30), but bwhite is the record holder for the biggest one (one with over 600k digits).

    Give me the link to your page on the top 5000 and I'll add yours to the wiki too.

    Congrats gamer007!

    I just went looking for yours in the top-5000 database...here it is:
    http://primes.utm.edu/primes/page.php?id=86941

    Brucifer, Vaughan and myself have top-5000 primes through the NPLB project. There are 399 other prover codes under the PrimeGrid project so I guess there could be a couple of other AMD Users PrimeGrid submissions about somewhere.

    Hey nice work gamer007.

    Its great to get the recognition isn't it? Quite a buzz. As AMDave wrote I have found some in No Prime Left Behind and also have a few from PrimeGrid too.

    I've got around 91 primes now through NPLB, both in the top 5000 and then many that were too small to get listed there. Never did get primes with the other prime projects as I put *considerable* effort into sieving. BUT my first prime was in the top 5000 and I well remember the rush from it.... am smiling just thinking about it as I sit here and type this. Congratulations on your joining the top 5000 club. Quite the kick isn't it???

    Glad to see it!!!

    Dave, can you give the link of your page on the top 5000 page? I just noticed I haven't got any primes for you in the Wiki.


    Gamer, your prime is saved for future generations on the Wiki.

    Everyone else that I haven't created a profile page in the wiki yet... Be patient, I'm working on it
