This time it appears to be out of disk space, so no results are uploading. On the plus side, all of my work Pending shows a deadline of August 17th, so we've got some time before deadlines pass.

Edit: And now there's the message "Database Error" when trying to access their forums.

Edit2: Okay, the A@H forums are back up, though uploads still aren't happening. :/

The PrimeGrid race starts in a little over three hours if you need something to crunch

 

[networkman]

I'll keep that in mind GLeeM, although as I've posted previously, I've come to expect this kind of thing on a semi-regular basis with this project so I keep an extra couple days buffer of work units.

The depressing thing here is that I just lost another rig too, so that's another 25,000 credit drop per day in production.

Damn , I switched to SETI for the race so it hasn't affected me this time, but what a pain!
Asteroids used to be quite reliable, at least in the previous years I ran it.

(btw I'm curious , how come the new avatar?)

 

[networkman]

For the longest time, I kept the parrot because it was cute and neutral, but as I've gotten older and (maybe) wiser, I'm realizing what is important to me. So as I already have a signature that pretty clearly spells out what it is important to me, I figured my avatar could too.

That's not to say that Israel is infallible, because it's not, but it too is important in a way that matters much to me.

OT, but i stand in support of Israel as well, so cheers to your new avatar :thumbsup:

oh yeah, and to make this post official, damn you Asteroids@Home!

 

[GLeeM]

I prepared early for PrimeGrid and Seti races and so finished and sent in results already.

Psalms 122:6:
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. ()

 

[networkman]

Thank you both for the support, both for the new avatar and the DC project.

 

[Assimilator1]

Ah ok, fair enough , I will say my support for Israel has gone from luke warm to cold just lately, they've been far too aggressive in their defence recently. I won't say anymore here though, if you want to discuss it further PM me or I'll join ya in a new thread in P&N .

Back to Asteroids I see their forum is back up but 2 servers are showing as down, the feeder & db purge, whatever they do!?

You able to get WUs?

 

[networkman]

On the topic of Israel, I respect you and your right to disagree and agree that further discussion on the topic be taken out of the DC Forum.

Back on topic(A@H), no, I've not been able to obtain any additional work, but then it wouldn't be an issue for me for another few days yet.

Seems the admin is back from holiday (as am I ) & the servers are back up :thumbsup:
