[VietOZ]

Great finish, guys!
Good luck with the WOW event!

And the project that has been announced is...

MOD_PYTHON ERROR

Again.

Please continue your normal SETI work until further notice.

Dammit, I prepped by flushing SETI out of all my queues, since I'm keen on FB. Sigh.

 

[crashtech]

So, yeah, I've turned SETI back on, for now. Should have known that would happen.

 

[crashtech]

This is the longest delay that I can remember, I wonder what's going on? Is FB on its way out?

 

[biodoc]

Maybe Sebastien will announce the project at the start to avoid bunkering on a "fragile" project server. Or perhaps he's on Holiday.

At this point, yafu would be a good choice.

 

[StefanR5R]

Don't tell anybody, but I am currently bunkering POGS, Leiden Classical, and Xansons for COD. In all likelihood, the sprint project will be one of these.

 

[Orange Kid]

I'm doing EDGeS@home, CONVECTOR and Constellation.

 

[Ken g6]

I'll work on RNA World. You can't create an account there anymore, but I still have Tony's account on the computer he sold me.

 

[TennesseeTony]

I'll do some POEM since the GPU fleet is still running....

 

[lane42]

Ill do some Seti, ya never know

 

[Markfw]

I do anything medical, let me know if it is.

 

[lane42]

Is the up coming PrimeGrid - Oktoberfest Challenge a GPU project.

 

[Ken g6]

Is the up coming PrimeGrid - Oktoberfest Challenge a GPU project.

Yes, it is. But nothing you do now would count for that challenge.

 

[crashtech]

Well, well, this is an interesting development. I wonder what project race/aggregation could capture our interest instead of Formula BOINC?

 

[Orange Kid]

Yes, I fear this sprint is cancelled due to a technical difficulty.
Hopefully next week will be back to normal.

 

[TennesseeTony]

I hope Sebastien hasn't gone past his due date and expired...........

LAF/Sebastian....although you are our 'enemy' (*most immediate competitor), we love/respect you and hope you are well!!!

NOW PICK A FREAKING PROJECT!!! Even if you're dead! The Sprints must continue!!!!......err. sorry, having trouble with Mr. Hide speaking....

 

[StefanR5R]

l'Alliance Francophone members apparently don't know more than we do. Sébastien was around earlier this month. I too wish him well and hope his current absence is for pleasure, not for business or even worse. That said, like ourselves, other fellow DCers are suffering from withdrawal now...

 

[TennesseeTony]

So......ODLK it is perhaps? Which one is that? Lemme see...ah, this one: https://boinc.progger.info/odlk/ ((blame marsinph of BOINC.BE (Belgium) if this is incorrect))


Why not? Switching now, even if no points for the Sprint, because of the written intent of FB in general, (which I can't quote since the whole site is down), but something along the lines of bringing attention to smaller projects.

EDIT: It seems this project has 3 types of tasks...has it always been so?

 

[StefanR5R]

@TennesseeTony, while nobody knows what the sprint project could have been, we do know where this guy always ends up when he is jumping to conclusions.

 

[TennesseeTony]

I do believe the ODLK project admin Natalia was expecting to be the topic of this Sprint: She posted the Python error, then asked "What is that supposed to mean? ODLK accidentally not in Sprint now?"

She goes on to say (sorry for the rough English from Google translate):

I think that one of the projects (ODLK or ODLK1) is now in Sprint, but many still confuse these projects and are going to consider the wrong project :)
Or maybe not a single project is in Sprint, just such a coincidence is a simultaneous increase in activity in both projects.

In the ODLK1 project, the tasks also end. How would Progger not overslept :)

And the Formula Boinc site still does not open for me.

edit: Darn it, nevermind, after further translating from French to Russian to Klingon to English, she says no no no, she only went to FB's site to see what the Sprint was, just like everyone else....or is she just being Russian, and trying to not let the cat out of the bag? Hmmmmm. I don't think we will ever know. Hope Sebastian is alright... and learns to share responsibility....

 

[crashtech]

Interesting! I haven't run ODLK for a while, this seems a good excuse as any!

 

[StefanR5R]

This is a lesson to me; I will never link to a post of that Marsian Phd again, ever.

 

[Ken g6]

Well...

The good news is the FB site came back.

The better news is the sprint project wasn't any of the ones we didn't pick.

The bad news is the site still says "Project to be determined" for the last sprint. So I guess we really did skip that sprint.

And the Belgium F1 results.

• Charles Leclerc 1:23:45.710
• Lewis Hamilton +0.981
