What are your personal goals before the end of Seti I?

[RaySun2Be]

A bit off topic, but I reached one of my goals this year on Saturday. I finally reached Platinum.

That is, Platinum level in the American Red Cross Donor Olympics. I pledged to give blood 4 times this year, but was able to give 6 times. 3/4s of a gallon. I got a nice coffe mug for hitting it too.

I have a somewhat rare blood type, A-, and they are always needing donations, so I do what I can to help out.


On topic, Not sure now if I will hit the 10K mark by the end of SETI, putting out only 4 to 5 WUs a day now. But I'll give it a shot! The Red Rascal may have lost the turbo and nitros, but she's still chugging along best she can.

 

[MoFunk]

That is great news Ray!

The rascal just needs a bit of a tune up maybe!

Hmm, I'm a newbie, but changing to SETI from RC5 bit me with the upgrade bug again! Watch out, I've finally got DDR systems all around the office and home now

I'd like to get into the top 100 on the team. It may be possible by the end of February for me to do this, but probably not.

I just wish RC5 had lasted a little longer I wanted to get to 10 Million and top 500, but missed w/ 9.3M & #511 overall. I did however squeak into the top 20 on the team, so that's all good

Well you may do it, you have some good numbers going there!

 

[BGod]

jatwell, I know the feeling. If RC5 had lasted a few months longer I could have caught up and passed ForceSHO. As it happened, I finished only two places higher than you for the TeAm.

As promised, I switched all my home machines to SETI once RC5 ended. I will be shutting all but one down at the end of this year. The outragious power bills are more than I can take and I've got to sell off some of these machines so I can afford a newer car. It's been a great run while it lasted and I hope that my debt to "The SETI Cavelry" is paid in full.

 

[Swanny]

To be 1st in my registration class. I'm currently 2nd and about 3000 WUs behind.

 

[jatwell]

I still resent you for passing me in RC5 BGOD!!!

lol

Nice job there and you've always been great to race around in these projects

Thankfully, I only have two computers here at home, so my "fleet" is a little more user friendly for me.

that really sucks.. blah.

Don't worry ,SETI2 will take over

Bgod
I sure count your debt as paid ,that doesn't mean you can stop just yet though

Jatwell
Wow! ,with you doing so well in RC5 I'm sure you'll scream up the charts & reach your goal

 

[micron]

10K

 

[zodder]

I will hit one of my goals: 25K. I hope to make 99.99%, too.

Top 30 on the TeAm would be nice, too.

 

[Crazee]

My goals have changed as I have progressed with the project. I had hoped to make top 1000, but the project will end before I get there so my goals are:

30K WUs
TeAm top 30
Top 600 Home Crunchers (Currently #845)
Top 1500 Overall Crunchers (Currently #1956)

 

[lobadobadingdong]

I'd like to hit 500WU's, I just started less than a month ago, what's the story on SETI II?

 

[Assimilator1]

Look here for info from SETI

What a coincidence, I have A- blood too! We're a very special group you know.

Unfortunately, illnesses have crept up at very inoportune times, and so I've not been able to donate blood as often as I've wanted, but I still look forward to hitting the 5 gallon mark.. I'm at like 37 pints now.

It currently looks like holding #4 may be as good as we can hope to accomplish but there are still a couple of scenarios that offer even greater heights. :Q

And no I'm not going to divulge what those scenarios may be (at this time).

 

[Tarca]

Pass Networkman!:Q

only 43 positions out of 2000th place in all of Seti

Go TeAm

I have over 50k WUs and I'm still not at 99.99%, my rank is 99.987% . Hope I didn't burst your bubble!

 

[JonB]

Well, at my current rate, I should reach 2500 WUs by the end of February, so my goal is 3000 WU

Anyway, I'm just a reformed RC5'er and OGR'er and should reach my first 1000 milestone in the next few days. Not too shabby for only 58 days of SETI !!!!!!!

If SETI 2 starts everyone off at the same point, maybe I won't be suckin' such stale air back here in the rear.

After reading the link Assimilator1 provided, I am really looking forward to Berkeley's distributed computing future. It's so AWESOME to realize that I CAN HELP, PERSONALLY with the exploration of our universe! I know I'm doing it now, but to read that helps realize what I'm really doing! So, so few in the past have been able to explore the unknown world and they were such discrete efforts. This project symbolizes a very important part of our humanity- the quest for knowledge.

And all I have to do is sit at my computer and move my fingers around and I'm helping. Zero cost, VERY little time involved in setup and maintenance, using unused computing resources.

I've been doing well over 100 WUs a day after just a few minutes of playing with Flexinstaller. That's so cool!

OK Scratch getting to the top 99.99% off of my list! LOL

 

[Ken g6]

My goal is still 7500. I've wanted to reach the top 100 for a long time, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen in time.

But you never know...

 

[ShotgunSteven]

Hit 2,500.

I hear ya!
