Not a lot of fanfare in this project, but a decent and worthy project none-the-less.

Welcome Kokomo, who has climbed over 10,000 points already to Team Rank of 50 and Overall Rank of 2763 (of 5069 members). :beer:

We are currently in 17th place.

I'll report on those who have turned in results in last 2 days:
COMPOST-HEAP at #38 with 38,181 :beer::beer::beer:
Da Dark Warlord at #31 within 6 points of 69,000 :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:
SoftNuTek at #28 and 74,613 :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:
Chadder007 at #27 and 83,744 :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

Mloot, who retook #1 just a couple days ago back at #2 with 962213
and me, BCinSC, currently at #1 with 981898, but likely to be overtaken by Mloot again. Who will make 1Mil first? The RACE is on!!!

There are many who have contributed recently, more than 2 days ago, but within last 2 weeks. Many thanks and given length of current molecule time, I know we'll see you updating soon.:beer::evil:

Thanks, BCinSC. Should have some nice stats today as machines are starting to complete jobs.

You have a 2.8E Prescott, right? What is it's rating in FaD?

Pretty poor, considering all the "hype." Hyperthreaded, it's 93x93=186.

Awesome info! Sure adds to the fun.

I wish there was more info like this. How did you create this?

Some quick question guys. Can I use an offline cache for this project. I have basic crunchers that at the moment aren't connected to the internet. Would I be able to d/l a big cache to work on, & just dump the results when I am able to connect?

Also, does everyone generally stick to the latest build, or is their a certain one that users prefer. I know in seti, the screensaver version is considerably slower, is the ss version the only program available to run this project?

Still trying to absorb all the necessary info. Thanks for your help.

Great thing about this project is YES you can do it offline. It automatically downloads a batch of jobs based on your settings and can be set to upload at a specific time or manually. You can make one machine the master queue and have all others point to it thereby not having to install client on each. You can export completed jobs and transfer via floppy of CD to another machine connected to internet. The possibilities are endless. Version 1.21L has been out since last June and seems very stable. They are Beta testing 1.23b, but I'm not one of the testers, so I can't tell you much about it. Nor do I run the screensaver; I just let it crunch in background.

Thanks BCinSC!

It's great to see a little "hype" about this very worthwhile project.

Stats finally updated, but the 20K of points I've uploaded in last 2 days are MIA while they continue to work on hardware issue. Hope they show up soon so I can claim Millioniare.
