:biggrin: How come the Sic****stra guys all have asterisks in their crunch names? Maybe we should use !! dajeepster!! Rudy Toody!!

Their name is Latin, sic itur ad astra, "thus you shall go to the stars".

Maybe we should capitalize any A's and T's in our names, like "dAjeepsTer"? :hmm: Maybe not. D:

We appear to be securely in sixth place. 🙂 But don't stop crunching yet! There's still five hours and thirty-eight minutes left 'til the solstice.

don't worry... thier car will have four flats soon...

.. and i have no idea how it happened
😱 Wow, you weren't kidding! Or at least you passed the SETI.Germany guy again. 🙂

Edit: P.S. Chronodekar finally made it into a race. And I bet he wasn't even trying! 🙂

Shutting down cores that can't make it for some that may.
The AMD is very close,( 20 min of the deadline to late) everything else looks like it will report before the deadline.

I'm not doing to bad for not having a Nvidia card in the house...🙂

Maybe the boost will move me up a couple of spots.

Best i can do.

Go TeAm AnandTech!
 
i'll get 5 more in (All GPU)

All the CPU has been done for an hour.

A little trafic managment and i get a few more, (two or 3)

But thats it, maybe i can hold 132 place...🙂

Go TeAm AnandTech!
 
If we stay on for one more day, we can get the TeAm over 100 000 000!

Also, we might send a CARE package to dajeepster. He could be suffering from battle fatigue!

I suggest some Crunch bars, Mountain Dew, and a fresh pair of socks!

Well done all! There is no clean up period in this race and the data above are the final stats. Thanks for taking part!
 
That was a nice little race, thanks for having me 🙂
Give a call on the next one, ill try to bring a little more firepower..

i fell asleep two hours before the race ended D:
 
Thanks for the stats, Ken!

I couldn't stand looking at that log-in screen. It was too much like Schrödinger's Cat. So, I borrowed a kb from the building manager to see if boinc was dead or alive. It was alive!

Do I understand that you got both Quad machines (with multiple core gpus) to work properly?

If that is true, congratulations are in order.

Hip Hip Hooray!!!
 
The results are finally official for all races! Some final results from this racing season:

The TeAm moved up to 13th with this last race! Which means that, among others, we beat the US Navy! (At searching for prime numbers, anyway.)

I recognize a few TeAm members on the individual listings:
  • 20th, with 1773.5 points, Petrusbroder
  • 73rd, with 569.75 points, Dajeepster (with only two challenges!)
  • 97th, with 396.00 points, BlackBox
  • 159th, with 149.75 points, Biodoc

@Fred: Not yet. Most of the sieves are very different from this one. But I'm working on a Cullen/Woodall GPU sieve for early next year. And see also the GFN challenge (NOT a BOINC challenge).
