WCG - 15th Birthday Challenge

[Markfw]

Dangit. Okay, we're building our own kit then.

Newegg:
Push button $35 w/free shipping
Pager $60 w/free shipping. Both from same seller.

Amazon:
Push button $52 w/free ship
Pager $60 w/free shipping

Ordered !!!! Thank you Tony !!!

Only problem is battery. I wish it would hook up to the the doorbell wire. But I will take this, its better than nothing !!!!

Was it on my end or WCG? All machines had this in the logs.

Remember to multiply by 7 to get WCG points. The numbers are lower than I expected, after 24 hours, but that is possibly due to MCM requiring a wingman, and we are sure some bunkers are being built out there. Hopefully we get a big boost from validated MCM tasks towards the end.

Probably the most likely reason the scores did not go up much, is that this just isn't a good technique to keep score with, but I will continue regardless.

Thanks for the stats, Tony.

I have a Ring doorbell (hardwired too) that sends a notification to both my iPhone and Apple Watch when someone rings the bell. Apple Watch is especially helpful as the watch would vibrate. This could be something you can look into if you have a smartwatch.

I was going to do the ring, but nobody could verify that it would make the phone light up and vibrate. If this does not work out, I think the ring doorbell and the apple smartwatch is worth a try. Thanks !

About an hour ago, all the Birthday Challenge participants combined crossed a 1,000,000,000 milestone.

Cheers everyone!

TeAm AnandTech should reach its own 100,000,000 milestone some time tomorrow. (In 2018, we finished with 109,634,522 points, in 2017 with 72,917,807 points.)

Thanks Tony !

 

[Markfw]

Well, its over, and we got 2nd place ! Congrats everyone @! I will be switching half the fleet back to Rosetta now.

 

[VietOZ]

Congrats TaaT on 2nd place and [H] on 3rd place.
Great efforts by everyone and in the end, science won the trophy.
I'd like to thank Tony and Skillz for stopping by to remember Movieman with us. It's very kind of y'all. Thank you!

 

[Orange Kid]

Nice run all. Second place is amazing!!!

 

[VirtualLarry]

Wow, that race was ... exciting. And a little bit emotionally-exhausting.

Glad that we managed to pull off second. thanks, TeAm! (And also all those that joined during the "recruitment drive".) Look and stay around for a while, ATDC is a friendly place.

 

[[H]Coleslaw]

Congrats on 2nd place guys. Well fought!

 

[StefanR5R]

Congrats on 2nd place guys. Well fought!

Thanks for pushing us this far, and congrats to your own all-time record result in WCG Birthday Challenges. (OK, you achieved 3rd in 2018 already, not counting the cryptocurrency shops.)

Quoting pschoefer of SETI.Germany: "The biggest winners in this year are actually TAAT and [H], who, against the general trend, were able to improve upon nine-digits results of the previous year. "

Thanks to SG for the nice looking medals for the top three finishers.
