If they would reconcile their differences, I'd be ahead of GeoffS.

hmmm... can't have that! lol... any idea how to get the client to work on a dual proc system? It will only chew up half the CPUs...

Yup. Just run two instances. Easy-peasy.

I just made 2 folders and placed the client in each one, only one will restart on a reboot so you will have to manually start the other one. On my xeon 2.4 I have 4 clients running.

 

[GeoffS]

Oh! Cool... downstairs I go... back in a bit...

Geoff

 

[GeoffS]

Well... that was embarrassingly easy... zoom!zoom!

If you rename each executable a different name (cuboid1.exe, cuboid2.exe, etc..) and put them in your startup folder might that work?

Yes that will probably work.

I like the Cuboid peeps. They recombined me, and I'm looking at the top 20 soon. w00t!

BTW, changing the username in the file Ken mentioned does indeed re-assign any new credits to the renamed user. Of course, the client must be stopped prior to the change and restarted.

We're about 3 million away now. :thumbsup:

[Silverthorne]

We've done it, we're now 4 million ahead of everyone.

Nice job Team.

 

[caferace]

Silverthorne, they have a tribute up to you! Cool!! :thumbsup:

Wow, now that's pretty cool, isn't it? :beer:

Cons Silver!

 

[Silverthorne]

That's cool.

 

[salvorhardin]

Congratulations Silverthorne on a well deserved tribute. Does anybody know if the project is still active? The stats haven't really been updated and i'm sitting on about 10 million results that I haven't been able to send in.

 

[Silverthorne]

Yes it's still active, there was a problem a couple of days ago.

 

[GeoffS]

Well.... I think I lost a buttload of tosses... all of the clients (2 duals and 2 singles) were locked up... not the PCs... just the client... I couldn't get the client to pop up so I rebooted all of the machines... guess we'll see... tomorrow I should pass the 10% of Silverthorne (also known as 100 000 000 toss) mark!

That must have happened when they had server trouble, I lost a lot also.

TA, Top of the Mountain!

Dear users,

The Cuboid Simulation is entering a final race. It will run in a constant fast mode until December 31.

The simulation will be shut down at 00:00 GMT on 1 Jan 2007. Every computer still running a this time will be allowed to upload its data, such that no tosses will be lost. Your program will display a proper message, when it stops running.

If you have a machine to put on this project now is the time. The simulation is running extremely fast right now. I have put all machines back on this till the end, it would be really cool if the team could break the 2 billion mark.

Now check out the Cuboid page.

My only question is where does Felix come up with 16K one day and 23K+ the next day ... sounds shady to me ...

 

[Silverthorne]

Actually it's very easy right now, the simulation is running very fast. Just watch my output tomorrow, I have three more machines that are not running.

 

[caferace]

Awesome new tribute image there.

edit: Five hardball cores back on. Look out, GeoffS.
