Lost TA members

[Riv]

Should we notify all members that think they're still cracking for TA but were lost in the recent DNet stats mishap or would it be considered spam?

 

[Dale]

good idea.. do you have a list of ones that were lost??

..Dale

 

[Riv]

I assume every member on the yesterday TA participant stats (here) with a last submission date earlier than November 11th. I'll write down all e-mails before they disappear and then we can decide on whether to notify them or not.

 

[Dale]

well here is your list of the ones that dont have an email listed
these people should rejoin

I've compiled a list of all members that submitted block yesterday but with an erroneous last submission date. The list consists of 65 e-mails or names (not including alpha_7x and JimMC). What next?

 

[Dale]

[Riv]

And let's not forget about the OGR people...

Edit: Seems OGR is ok today at least.

 

[DanC]

OK guys - I guess I open myself to the flames...

THIS ISN'T EVEN REMOTELY SPAM

Let's contact these people post-haste!!!!

 

[Assimilator1]

lol ,you have your work cut out! 😉

 

[dennilfloss]

DanC,

Just compose the appropriate message and send it to them. You can do this in about 1 1/2 hour. 😉

 

[Riv]

Ok can somebody write a letter describing what has happened and how to fix it so we can notify these lost souls?

 

[DanC]

Denis, YGPM

 

[DanC]

How's this?

Dear fellow Team Anandtech member.
Due to technical difficulties with Dnet's stats server - many of our team members have inadvertently dropped from team ranks.

It is imperative that if you wish to continue to have your blocks submitted to Team Anandtech that you go to the Dnet site and re-join TA.

We are now #1 in the world, but we still need your support! We are contacting you because it appears that prior to the server problems, you were part of Team Anandtech. We want you to be aware of a problem that was published by Dnet as a known error in the recovery of the stats box.

If you have chosen to withdraw from the contest, please do not consider this to be a recruiting letter. We are simply trying to make you aware of a problem you may not know about.

Sincerely,

 

[DanC]

[dennilfloss]

Ouch! :Q Watch where you put that pointy thing! 🙂

 

[SSP]

Thats great Dan. I think you should do it. 🙂

 

[DanC]

I was hoping those with the lists would grab it and go... 🙂

 

[striker64]

Well I've rejoined (mscrivo) .. I usually check the daily TA ranking to see how far I've moved up 🙂 and I noticed that my blocks were the same as they were before the stats server went down. So I rejoined a couple days ago, but that didn't work (as Decibel had confirmed), so I rejoined again today, hopefully it will stick.

btw, I've never made a post here before, so I thought I'd let you guys know what I'm cracking with:

24/7:
P3 550 @ 790
Celeron 600 @ 810
Celeron 333 @ 375

Part Time:
Celeron 566 @ 730
AMD K6/2 233 @ 250

Mike Scrivo

 

[Rickr]

I was on that list, and I would not have minded an e-mail!

It is very confusing, I checked my personal stats page a few days ago, and it said I was still a member! Oh well, I rejoined, and all blocks should be submitted to TA.

Just as a side note, it makes the whole RC5 project look cheesy when they can't even keep their database properly backed up. Once the key is found, I will not participate again.

 

[Ken g6]

I'm going to private message a few of these guys I recognize from the forum. Surely, that can't be considered spam, and I'm not even using their e-mails from D.Net. 🙂

1. Artemedes - check 🙂
2. Office Boy - check 🙂
3. JimMc - check 🙂
4. NakaNaka
5. Chuffmaster2k
6. Wishmaster

 

[KGB]

Hey ppl!

Are you saying that with the dnet fiasco, all TA members have to re-join?

KGB Man (aka biggles)


I just checked my profile at dnet and it still says I crack for TA!?
WTF

 

[ViRGE]

Ya, I see nothing wrong with sending it. I'll see if we can't use the admin@teamanandtech.com addy to send it from.

PS DanC, it's just Team Anandtech; no capital A in Team

 

[WetSprocket]

Rejoining the team now works at least. I was out for about 10 days but its back today. I'm on the front page of OGR overall. Moooovin on up!!!!

 

[divide by zero]

KGBMAN,

I re-joined two days ago and my profile said I
was part of TA but my blocks we not being credited
to TA. I just re-joined again and it said my
previous team was "0"!!! So don't believe your
profile, go ahead and re-join.

Cracking for the good of Humankind!

[Goi]

[TA]Goi reporting for duty SIR! 🙂

Actually I've noticed that my personal stats and the team stats didn't agree, but I haven't been able to join for the past 2-3 days. I just rejoined yesterday so hopefully those uncounted blocks(around 18K altogether) will be added to the team totals.
