It's looking really good for Tom! :thumbsup:

 

[petrusbroder]

Yes, it does.

I have 849.5 credits pending. All these credits come from one computer - my dual Athlon MP. These credits need a quorum of two and almost all of these WUs have not yet been resent to other computers, because there are very few comps with this CPU. I am now in the situation - after having a mail-conversation with the researcher/admin of Leiden Classical, that I have to restart my dual Athlon-MP to recrunch and thus obtain the credits. This i can not do, because I am on vacation far away from my home and that computer is one of the few I can not reach from outside my house ...

I can see that computer crunching away on CPDN ...

Therefore: I see no chance of winning this challenge under the given circumstances. As it is now I get 16 - 40 credits/day and at that pace I'll not reach my goal (24 995 credits) until late in August. Only 2 WUs for a total of 39 credits have been sent out to a cruncher. I do not see any miracles happen.
I propose, that we do not wait until August 3 until we declare Tom Philippart the winner.

Fred, why don't you prepare the parcel with the belt and send it to Tom ...


Edit: spelling ...

Tom is still getting credits -- if he gets more than 8.04 by Friday, he could toody!

For that reason, I do not accept Peter's cry of "Uncle!"

 

[Rudy Toody]

I checked Tom's pending credits and he has none. So, today's update will be his last.

"Uncle!" is now accepted from Peter.

I cannot see Christian's computers to check on pending credit. So, if he checks in to tell use he won't get enough credits by Friday to get closer than 8.04 credits, we will declare Tom the winner!

OT:
Excuse a question: "Uncle"? What does that mean?

Oh, back on topic:'

This gets more and more confusing: :Q
My pending credits are still at 849.51 - no change from previous post/check.
But my total credits have increased from 24 145 to 24 169 and I do not understand why ... all my WUs are accounted for - either pending results or crunched results. Where do those 24 credits come from? :Q

"Uncle!" is what kids yell to give up in wrestling. I don't know the derivation.

I'll check out your pending. I picked up the numbers from LC team page.

You created a host 31 July and crunched one WU and credit of 24.14 was granted 1 August.

FYI: the LC machine # 27240

I don't have any pending credits anymore at all, so TOM, you're the WINNER!!!
