sub team?

Hey all, obviously I am part of the Anandtech S&H Team but I now have the capability of possibly starting my own team. Is it possible to create a sub team? I would stay a member of Anandtech but I have my own little team cracking away?
 
You can certainly do that as many other have done. 😉

The best way to handle it would be for you to run SetiQueue on one of your personal machines and then have each of your teammates using your SETI EMAIL ADDRESS get their WUs from your miniteam's Q.

If you need some help contact me by PM or email and I'd be more than happy to help you out. 🙂
 
I already have someone doing that, my idea was somewhat like Team Anandtech is. Have my own team but be able to have everyone's stats on the site and all like it is for us.
 
If you want to start a team, you can certainly do that by going to Seti@Home Groups and then to Create a New Group.

There is no way to create a group this way and have them be a part of Team AnandTech SETI. You would end up with your own team and be a completely separate identity.

If you wanted to remain affiliated with Team AnandTech SETI, you have two choices:

(1) The SetiQueue method that I have already mentioned

or

(2) using a naming scheme for each of your miniteam members such as:

Team smokey7722 - Member A
Team smokey7722 - Member B
and so forth.

I'm pretty sure there are no other options.
 
That is indeed a very nice site that Pazoo has created. I have just asked him to post to this thread and share his methodology with us. 😉

I think he must have created his own script to use the SetiQueue Stats but let's see what he hopefully may add to the discussion. 🙂
 
Thanks for the interest in our miniteam website.🙂 First of all, I myself did not create it but one of my friends who is an great programmer did. We ran as a miniteam for quite a while and all thought it would be cool if we could get some individual statistics. Thats where the idea for http://aliens.blueorbb.com came from. I'll try to explain how the whole site works below.

Although some of us do use setiqueue, we do not get our stats from the queues. There is an installer that we use called setipazoo.exe which is the heart of the operation. The installer installs seti onto the given machine under our team name along with another file. The other file, lets call it Zoo for now, is a program which reads the current work unit data along with some other information (Computer name, CPU type/speed, OS, etc...) and sends it at given intervals to our webserver into a database file.

That basically describes the first step of the process. From there on out its all just parsing the database file to derive statistics. We have entries for each user and which computers belong to those users. Each and every WU completed using Zoo is recorded into the database file. We then have a lot of data that we can use to get the stats you see on our website. I'm not entirely sure how each and every one of the statistics we have is generated but thats the general idea.

I know this probably isn't much use but I hope it gives you an idea of how our miniteam site works. :frown:

If anyone has anymore questions shoot them my way and I'll try my best to answer them. 😛
 
Cool site Pazoo 😀

Although i haven't officially called Spacehead a mini-team, i consider it to be(at least temporarily), as there are now myself & 3 others(maybe 4) crunching under my name. They joined with me to help out in the race i'm in.
I've just been keeping track of our stats using SETI Watch, as everyone is using the SETI Driver/Spy combo and keeps a "SETILog.csv" file that i have them email to me every now & again.
I can keep track of everyones stats(avg times & # of WU's) on my computer, at least.
It'd be hard for me to do the SETI Queue thing as i'm on dail-up, one computer has no internet connection at all & the others i can't guarentee their computers are always on.
