A new race - now for a trophy! The race has started!

[TennesseeTony]

We might take third place before this race is over, certainly 4th. If we don't take 3rd, I'll stick around with a few dozen cores until we do, as long as it seems feasible.

 

[TennesseeTony]

It may be early to discuss the next race project, but I vote for Universe, we're currently in 11th place, poised to pounce upon our prey.

I estimate 6 EASY points, and another 6 points after that which we'd have to fight for (potential to go from 11th place to 4th).

vote #2 for Universe@home for our next project.

The TeAm's production in NFS@Home during this leg of the race:

We have now 69 points in Formula boinc and we have risen quite a few steps in Formula-BOINC (from #25 to #18) and in NFS@Home ( from #9 to #5). Well done, TeAm!

 

[petrusbroder]

We may, if we are productive, even catch the next step: 12 points (i.e. two more points).

Re: Next leg of the race:
Interesting, I have had the same thought: Universe@Home.

Sorry, there is some problem with the pic-site; it does not accept any of my files with the error message:

Invalid file type, rejected.

It does not matter if I use the *.png, *.jpg or *.gif ...
I'll be back later ...

Thanks for the stats, Peter! Those are, indeed, tiny pics, but they work.

I wonder what's gotten into Geecee?

 

[Fardringle]

Universe is an interesting project and I'd like to add some points to get a few new milestones, but sadly I'll have to skip that one since it is one of the BOINC projects that refuses to suspend itself when the BOINC Manager tells it to (when the computer is in use, for example) and it also doesn't run a very good NICE level so it interferes quite a bit with normal computer use. So I can run it on my home computer when I'm not actually using the computer for anything important, but I can't run it on any of the office machines.

 

[petrusbroder]

We have added 12 points!
Voplex has at last reached more than 400K in total points in Formula-BOINC and thus all the points have been counted. As we are in 4th position we got 12 points.
WUs are scarce, so I have Volpex at the highest priority and get WUs now and then ...
It may be worth the trouble for more crunchers to do that and we may keep our place.

It is not a project for the race, since the WUs are so scarce.

 

[TennesseeTony]

VERY EXCITING NEWS!!

So how do we join the Volpex?, this link doesn't do it:

http://www2.cs.uh.edu/~jsteach/volpex/

Edit: volpexathome.cs.uh.edu/VolPEx/ There we go.

 

[biodoc]

Volpex won't let me create an account. :\

"Sorry, this project has disabled the creation of new accounts. Please try again later."

 

[Fardringle]

Some of my computers are set to ask for Volpex work whenever it is available. They have been getting a few work units now and then but it has been pretty rare ever since the project was created.

[TennesseeTony]

As always, thanks for keeping track of things!

Although this leg of the race ends Sunday, I'd like to encourage everyone to keep crunching for a few more hours, as I'm sure we can briefly take 3rd place if we do!!

Thanks for the stats, Peter! Those are, indeed, tiny pics, but they work.

I wonder what's gotten into Geecee?

Huh? What did I do?

 

[petrusbroder]

Well, nothing ...
All is well ...

Thanks for the stats!

 

[Ken g6]

Huh? What did I do?

You picked up speed after a slow start. So did I. I'm hoping to stay ahead of you until the end.

Let us now give a real finishing effort in NFS@Home; we have only three more days to run! It would be nice if we got to rank 3 and 15 points!
