I noticed you have been slogging away on PSP, nice work, I'll try to add some cores myself to reduce your sentence

and I agree, the one after next is a long way off, probably the only one stompable would be the Goobee team, I can see the rest of them putting up a fight if we ever got close.

Welcome back Phill, only just noticed you there too

I'm currently only contributing to Milkyway, YoYo and Cosmology@home.

Of the three Milkyway is getting the most focus because the hardware I have for it is ideal. Yoyo I've climbed 1,526 places in the last month, and Cosmology 1,756 but my output is only 2.5-3K per day for each one.

As you know I primarily do folding, however I've also thrown my other Milkyway hardware at mining currently to desperately offset some of the leccy costs.

So are there any other more worthy to the cause projects I should be looking at instead?

Started doing a bit of Docking recently as it looks like an easy option for points. Perhaps threre are better targets? Concentrated efforts such as with Asteroids are good for quick gains but its all about maintaining position too.

Still limeted to CPU work atm though. Possibility of upgrades for my birthday though.

Yay, I'm beating Biffa on something - Cosmology

Biffa · 15 May 2013 at 15:24

LOL

Just checked my laptop and I'm actually running

rosetta
Docking
Seti
Cosmology
GPUGrid
yoyo

Just some of them are running REALLY SLOWLY (and shouting)

Thanks

Just got a new work laptop so I've got DPAD running on there at night while its docked. I plan to switch some other machines over once we get the next team stomp on PSP (about 25 days).

It's about 80 days to a team stomp on muon with the one 3770k on 24x7. Should be worth about 180 points on vault.

I can help with this, perhaps we can have a coordinated assault sometime.

PhilthyPhil · 17 May 2013 at 21:34

diogenese, have you noticed any problems with credit on DPAD? Whenever I upload results to muon1.dyndns.org they do not seem to get credited :confused:

j_Remos · 20 May 2013 at 09:24

We are going to get hammered in Asteroids so I am going to hit it with all I have.

j_Remos · 29 May 2013 at 06:49

Looks like we might loose 11th soon unless we can find some big gains. Any ideas?

Too many projects, too little time.

Biffa · 29 May 2013 at 14:46

11th overall or 11th in Asteroids?

MGP · 29 May 2013 at 17:12

Asteroids we are well down, something like 33rd now. But we'd need a lot of output to make up ground as our average says we should be much lower than that. Overall though we aren't doing that badly.

There is an element that being BOINC with so many projects to choose from people will do the ones of interest to them rather than doing the ones that help this particular stats manipulation thing. Indeed for this there are some less popular projects that a couple of participants have the potential to make big gains.

diogenese · 29 May 2013 at 19:56

I'm giving dimes another shot now I have proper broadband, i don't know how much pointage is up for grabs though.

Agreed. And we do very well on the most popular projects, the weighting is a little off for points but on the other hand the Vault does get people helping out on the less "Cool" projects which can only be a good thing (as long as there all good Science).

I'm just happy to move from project to project where needed and offer the little power i can. Theres no way i can make a huge impact with the hardware at my disposal. That said my lovely wife is buying me a GTX 650 Ti for my birthday so that might help me gain a couple of point in a suitable project.

There's a week long Asteroid challenge in a couple of weeks if we're up for it? should give us a nice boost if the last challenge is anything to go by.

diogenese · 3 Jun 2013 at 20:35

Is stashing allowed?

It seems to be... if the last one is anything to go by.

might start now

hanluc · 2 Jul 2013 at 07:33

Dimes stats have gone doolally and we've dropped a place, hopefully they'll be fixed soon.
