Suffice it to say that I am but a poor refugee from oppression and boredom, and TeAm AnandTech seems to be "where it's at" in the DC community.

Past my bedtime, so I'll bid you goodnight. Must get my beauty sleep.

Fine, added a 3200+ to it, but someone had better work on HIV when this is done.

You're right to say that it's a little bit useless to figure out exactly how many hours someone participated in Seti so the Seti members can return that to let's say, the DPAD team..
You're also right that it's boring to do just one project. I'm also active in three projects. Only Seti is just to help out our team mates
UD is my project and I will run that for as long as the project goes. I like D2OL also very much and am rather active at that one as well (did 180+ candidates yesterday..)

Reffering to your 'vocal output'.. Well, your only here for about 2 months.. And calling someones ideas 'useless and stupid' to some other members ideas, well.. I don't think much people would appreciate that..
Ah were in the same team, so we shouldn't argue about that, should we, team mate?
By the way, I'm also not that good at this language cause I'm a fellow european...

Heh, I used to like UD very much. but then WUs became sooo long, and client doesn't save 'em good enough, so I switched.

Reffering to how long I'm here - I used to be here earlier under moriakaice account. At that acct I joined on 03/15/2003 11:24 AM, so it's not only two months. But then I aslo have a break from DC & TA.
I'm just saying what I think. You know, all this counting looks for me as ppl @ SETI worry they will give more than we give you.. I think it's destroy the idea & atmosphere here !!

If for good reason and with good arguments, we should

Maybe for Europe members [except English members] we should use another language? (*hint*hint* Polish )

@Thoreau and other that-way thinking guys...
I won't agree with you. Maybe we will just create list of DCs from which ppl help you @ Seti? Anyway, it will be member, not TeAm decission, to which DC move after SETI1!
Don't concentrate on number. Concentrate on IDEA of HELPING EACH OTHER IN TeAm !! That's most important, not big figurees (however, they are good too!).

Think about it!

I'm not really sure how to respond to this. Other than to say that there are a lot of people here that do not know about all of the other DCPs that are out there. This will give some people an idea where to start looking. To imply that I don?t want to "repay to much" !!!! A four letter word followed by a three letter word should be included here but I digress.

I for one want to know if I need to move one or more of the 90+ PCs I have to a DCP that I havent heard of, and isnt being "rewarded" for there help with SETI1. You know of a better way for me to find that info out?
Im all ears.

Listen to your heart

As I said: create a list of DCs involved in helping in SETI.

However, left members free choice, not because 'thay said I need to repay for what they did'...

For *me* it will be stupid if you join particular project not because you like its idea but you need to repay something...

BTW. Who is going to help Team Norge in D2OL if they come here helping us with SETI?
Brage offered his help to us! And I think the fact of effors to help shouldn't be forgotten, not the number of WUs he will donate!

@brage
#2 isn't that bad

Never too early (or late) for new friends, good scotch, more WUs, and a little payback for past favors.

Welcome aboard Kokomo!

D437h, You are really confusing me.

In the same post you said

and then you say:

Hmmm THATS MY POINT!!
WE NEED A WAY TO FIGURE OUT WHO HELPED OUT WITH SETI1! And make sure they get back what they gave.

There is no way my heart can tell me who took time away from there team, there DCP. Those who lost races, who lose a spot or two or three in world ranking.

I don't know why I am even bothering with this. You seam to be the only one having a problem with keeping track of TeAm mates from other teams donating time.

 

[Smoke]

Good Morning, TeAm Mates! :sun:

We are doing better.

With the help of our new members and other DCP TeAm Mates we have been holding our position with BBR over the last several days. But upon closer inspection the situation is still in doubt.

At the current power level, measured by our "new production", they will catch and pass us before the end of January.

We can't count on "new" members to hold them off. We still need more help. The crisis has not passed!

We need to divert more power to the Seti TeAm. If you have it to give ... now is the time!

Let's not get side-tracked. Let's keep our eyes on the prize!

Contribution from other team isn't the same as contribution from your mates... Or, at least, it isn't for me.. If other team help us, we really need to care on number, as we don't want to give them too less.. We care about this only before repaying, than we forget it and remember only that that team help us!

And inside the TeAm, i think number aren't so important... and you, who are concentrating on number, kill the idea of TeAm, in which members help each other because they want to do it!

Maybe I'm the only one misfit here. I don't have problems with tracking it, however, find this idea useless. That's all...

But now I have one question, SNC. How you gonna keep track of mine, even if I don't send too much and far lower than I want, when now I'm part of Rebel Alliance in Seti? You are going to watch their SETIQ to know how many I crunched?
Oh, if you allow, next question. In which DC I participe in you are going to repay me what I have done here? That's really bug me...

Excuse me, Thoreau, but I find your idea useless.. Let's say our DPAD team donated 10 CPU's 24/7 == 10 points, right? So what, you when SETI ends will add only 10 CPU's to us? That's stupid, really..

It is very boring listening you all talking only about how many each DC add to SETI.. I'm crunching ZETA/ChessBrain/D2OL/DPAD - which project will you be in to repay what have I done? :/

Wouldn't it be better if we just supp. you guys now, and after SETI you will look for your project, don't watching on how many each of them add to SETI? Join DC you like, not that, which supported SETI!

Why put effors in creating another stats page, it's better to create accurate and updated project list!! It will be very good for all of us looking for new projects to join!

PS. 31.9% WU done. 5:01 hours left Total: 7:22.

D347h do you think you could of been even much ruder to the guy?:| ,he was only giving an idea as to how much cpu time was roughly switched to SETI for Christ sake!.

The whole point of tallying up a rough idea of how much cpu time was devoted to S@H1 is so that it can be returned (approximatley)to various chosens projects of choice afterwards.
Personally I don't know if its going to be practical but its an idea worthy of debate.
Check your attitude!
And I think you owe Thoreau an apology for being unnecassarily rude!

Btw re signals ,I never said it was proved either way ,that's the point of SETI ,you are the one who catorgorically said there were no signals

Also we don't normally ask to focus on one project ,as has already been said this is a one off event.
Anyway ,lets not taint this thread any further!


Welcome to TA Kokomo

 

[D347h]

Rude? Hmm, maybe it's because I don't know enough words to express my minds well enough.

You said, that he gives an idea to debate, and I said, that I think it's stupid idea = I don't like it... Sorry, can't think about other negative words for it as useless or stupid. Heh, I hate my poor vocabulary.

If I hurt somebody, I'm really sorry. It wasn't my target to do it, I just wanted to add my comment about the idea, which I don't like :/

OK, now you know what I wanted to say, I won't post about making such stats anymore.

To the signals:
How guys @ SETI knew which frequence to chose? What makes them so sure? Maybe I'm the only one who think there is no life want to communicate with us, but I can have my own opinion, right? Not meant being rude :/

 

[Kokomo]

Smoke, newbie that I am I won't comment on the "cross-project credit" thing, but I really like the open forum with its healthy and sometimes heated exchange of facts, ideas, and opinions without undue "censorship." Interesting that when such differences of opinion are allowed to run their course all team members involved (usually) smooch and make-up for the ultimate good of the team.

I'm working on getting a bud with 10M+ WUs to join us, and have invited him to look over TA tonight. If the forums and all the other bells and whistles don't persuade him to join TA, I will resort to a "time honored" method --- bribery. I know for a fact he has an idle P$C 2.6 looking for a mobo, and I just happen to have a D875PBZLK laying around, unopened, in NewEgg's original package.

No reflection on his current team, which is a good one, but IMHO he would be happier here, as am I.

okay. i'm trying to get setup again (i haven't done seti in probably a few years) and i'm having issues getting setup.

i know my account exists, but when i try to do the initial setup i hit 2 and enter my email address and get:

connect: No such file or directory
Can't connect to server

and then it loops infinately. any ideas on how to get past this? can i enter a server somewhere else?

thanks.

This is partially why I stay here. This TeAm is great at that. We are all different people with different views and sometimes we can step on someones toes, but it always seems to work out for the greater good of the TeAm!

fisher,
1st - cool & welcome back!
2nd - maybe the server was just innaccessable right at the moment you tried?
Do you have normal internet connection on that machine? Are you connecting directly to seti or to a proxy?

Glad to hear, MoFunk, that this is "normal." After a few fits and starts, it looks like I'm finally home. I'm "off-topic," and will now hush lest the "topic police" zing me. BT, DT.

fisher, cool!! maybe just a connection issue

We all agree we have the right to disagree and it's all cool in the end just like a family

I presume you mean 10,000WU's or I think BBR's race will be over.

At least if he doesn't want to move his old WU's over he could crunch of TA on this new rig under a new tag.

What price 10K units?

Not sure what is wrong with the BBR day for a day crunch with induhviduals making their own agreements with those who swap over. Maybe a bit too simplistic?

 

[paf077]

Hey fisher,

If it doesn't finish d/lding from Berkerley,you're welcome to use my Que.
Set proxy to paf077.dns2go.com
set port to 5517 , all in seti driver and you'll get all the WUs you need or want.

Glad to have you back.

And a big Welcome to Kokomo. It would be nice to get some of your friends to
join the TeAm.


Paf

I really think this has been beeten to death. either you are not reading what I am writing or you just ingore the parts you dont like. There is no way for me to know how huch you gave to SETI or from what DCP you gave up to do it IF YOU DONT TELL ME!!!!!!! ergo my reason for a tracking method. (deleted explitives).
Your begining you make me think if might be a good idea if I just join BBR. That would put an end to this.

 

[Smoke]

As I wrote earlier today, let's not let the little things distract us.

fisher, you have a PM that might be helpful.

Kokomo, very nice observation on your part. You will find the DC Forum the most friendly of all of the AnandTech Forums. Yes, we are all free spirits and sometimes our diversification gets some of us looking at each other cross-eyed (lol) but for the most part the ANANDTECH MODERATOR gives us a little more breathing room.

And for the thousandth time: SMOKE IS NOT AN ANANDTECH MODERATOR
