Bad news fellow Crunch Monsters, we had a severe thunderstorm here in Cleveland right after I left for work. I lost 8 hours of production on 9 rigs. I rig got soaked with water. I hope the power went out before it got wet. It is drying out now. Find out tomorrow. I am not drying out however. I am enjoying a few Molson XXX 7.3 % alc . Tastes good. Gonna get a big bottle of Vodka tomorrow. Goes good with mountain Dew Code Red .
 
Ken you aren't alone. Power outages have had my entire fleet out of commission off and on for the last 24 hours. Thunderstorms are in the forcast for the next four days so this could get interesting.

However, I have been able to repair a wounded cruncher and on the weekends I'll crank up my laptop so maybe I can keep my pace up.
 
Ouch Ken. Baldy I know what you mean, in Wisconsin the weather isn't looking too good for long term stable power. I do have them all on UPS's, but still. Hopefully it doesn't get any worse then last night, alot of rain mostly.

Good Luck teams!!!

Back Luck and we are only on day 3...

I did get to add another machine yesterday, so that should be worth another 100 or so..

My beer of choice is Newcastle Brown Ale, my local beer pub has it on tap 🙂

:roll: Must be another flaw in the client! 😉
 
Can someone stop the lightning around here? This is getting out of hand. Every night for the past 3 nights we have been "visited" by storms. I live in Fond du Lac, WI and we have gotten the most rain out of anyone near here. I have 1 smart UPS, the log files are great form these nights... brown outs, over voltages, etc.

Ok, no more whining,
Good luck teams 😛

Could be worse, my area is under a tornado watch right now.🙁

As long as the weather co-operates and the power stays on I'm above my prerace capacity right now and looking to make up lost ground.🙂
 
We also have had some bad storms here in Ohio. I can't be sure if lighting took out my main cruncher, or it's this POS DFI mobo. :disgust: Anyways sorry to team Moove Over about my drop in production. I'm back up running my old and trustee NF7-S2 mobo!
 
Day 4... looks like the stats server did an unattended reboot sometime during the night... been drooling over THIS as a replacement server for the stats, but my wife would have my nuts if I did that! :roll:
