Do we want to beat the Germans or what????

Update: Well well, wow, we're now way into the top 10 and heading for 2,000 replies to this thread!

Weldone everyone, we're gonna need more members to get much further though, and we can theoretically get into top place if we get just 50% of the currently online OcUK members signed up!

Alternatively we clone Gilly, myself and davidmarq, but apparently people dont' want that option *sad-but-evil grin*

-----

Now that I've got your attention

p) I'd like to point out that there's only 12 members of our tkc team, so what are you slackers all upto? You type away on your PCs, so do your kids (where applicable), so get the ickle tiny standalone tkc running in the background, join OcUK and get us into the top 100, you bunch of slackers!

Sign up now and follow the links in the account manager area to download and join OcUK (you have to cycle through the pages, in order of ranks we're around page 7).

I expect to see us zooming up those rankings in the next week or so, or it may be a trip to spanky for you all! :eek:

: D

Edit: Read the comprehensive all-expenses-paid guide to TKC *big smiley cute wonderful happy face emoticon*

Who gave you the keys to spanky? :eek:

Hope my little contribution hasn't gone unnoticed (wasn't quite 80K, but soon will be).

Muchos appreciated

- infact, that would be the reason we suddenly shot up - I was trying to work out why, but FF was loading a cached version of the page

Hmm, maybe there should be some tiffykats for tkc. I know someone I could try persuading

Likewise, luckily PC with cordless keyboard in same room as TV so I can idly press keys whilst watching telly.
Here's another 187 keystrokes for the team (plus a click for the smiley).

Hadn't thought of that. I have a diNovo which has about a 5m range on it, so clicking all round the house.

Yes! The MediaPad is detected as keystrokes!

Works more than 5m for me..about 6/7ish diagonally through a couple of granite floors, so I can sit hitting it while I watch TV hehe.

Oh, wait. I never watch TV

And thanks for joining up everyone, moved up a couple of places in just the last few hours

Get clicking!

Berserker · 24 Oct 2004 at 03:13

Can you believe it, the PC with the diNovo doesn't have TKC on it yet. I'll rectify that ASAP.

Mattus · 24 Oct 2004 at 03:29

I hope you're all helping us catch those Germans in BOINC as well as all this distributed clicking

Now running on main machine, and the vnc'd webserver

(double strokes, maybe

)

Yes, it does. Naughty.

Clark Nova · 25 Oct 2004 at 14:21

Right, that's it. I've signed up! I'll do the machines at home later too

Clark Nova · 25 Oct 2004 at 14:43

Right then Mr Beansprout, explain this:

Oct 15, 2004 at 09:41:55 PM

Keys Pressed: 1,722,485

Mouse Clicks: 340,896

Wheel Scrolls: 299,528

How are you managing to make so many keystrokes? Surely you must have some cunning plan there?

How many keystrokes are in "carpal-tunnel syndrome"?

(22 keystrokes, by the way

)

Mr. Brightside · 25 Oct 2004 at 15:06

I want to sign up....

When I click submit on the register script, I'm told:

An email has been sent to [email protected] containing instructions for activating your account.

Thank you for choosing TKC.

That's all very well, and I assume how it should go... But I never get an e-mail. I've waited 20 minutes now but still none. Any ideas are appreciated :eek:

When I signed up it said it sent the email immediately, perhaps try telling it you have forgotten your password and then it will send it again.

Or you could just use my account

Muahahah - the wonders of coding and MSN. And of course posting

Mr. Brightside · 25 Oct 2004 at 15:48

@si_sleaf

Thanks, it's sorted now, after 1 hour! I think it was just being slow

Clark Nova · 25 Oct 2004 at 16:00

I've posted a thread in the TKC forums but I suppose I can put it in here as well, might get an answer a bit quick

I can't submit the stats from TKC from my computers at work due to the firewall blocking most of the ports. Is there a way that I can save the file(s) and take them home with me and send them from my own computer?

Any ideas people?

Mr. Brightside · 25 Oct 2004 at 16:12

I thought I'd sorted it.....

But I haven't... Downloaded, installed, everything was fine. It logs mouse clicks and scrolls, and uploads them.

BUT, it won't log keypresses. My keycount is just staying on zero

I had the same problem when I tried running Pulse recently, hence switching to TKC, only to find that won't work either.

What is there that could be preventing TKC logging keypresses? Pulse only stopped working when I installed SP2 for XP, if that's any use but apart from that I can't think what it would be, and I would really like to get it working.

Do we want to beat the Germans or what????
