Ah, so that was you, I wondered who everybody was talking about
I had a Commodore 64 that came after the ZX ... I guess I should have kept it
My apologies, I didn't mean to mock you for your lack of having a decent computer

I think they still have work. It's still downloading work to me. I don't really want it. I've had my fill. I just don't want the 2nd place team to get it.I tried to get some but was told no tasks are available, looks like someone has already had their fill
Nope, still telling me no tasks are available for Garli, doesn't look they are getting much work either. So take the lot in case you miss the boat next time round.

Speaking of decent computers, last year you guys had pictures of a monster system (4 Xeon E7s IIRC) that had water cooling. Did that thing ever take flight?

Back from my world tour got 128kb of memory in the ZX now so that can be turned on whenever it's needed

Well I don't how the rest of the guys feel, but I'd much prefer comming 2nd than 1st if you guys let us win. I say go for it, add some excitement to the last two months of the comptetion.

As I told PDW earlier, there is a team that did some nasty things and sometimes ones actions have consequences. This is one of those times.BTW, Big Al and I have dual citizenship, we are officially members of 2 teams. Sometimes we crunch for 1 team and sometimes we crunch for the other. Sometimes we even crunch for both at the same time
We've accomplished what we set out to do, get our TSBT team into 2nd, and we will hold that position. Going after the top spot would be a exercise in futility and only tried by people with delusions of grandeur. I may be old, but I'm not delusional ... yet.
Well guys, there's only a few projects with work that TSBT has a chance to gain any points on. Enigma is a project we can both pick up a few points on and it's not going to make much difference between the our teams in 1st and 2nd place. So how about an Enigma throw down? If you are up for it,we can schedule a throw down. Give each team time to regroup. What say yea?

Well as I said on your forums, I'm up for it, though it doesn't look like it will be much of a contest on current form. However if we do, let's not do it in Nov because I believe it would be no fun being in division 1 next season for either of us if we ended up there.
Rule 8 of FB states there are 3 divisions that are determined by RAC. Unless your average RAC for the month of Nov is over 10M then you will remain a Div 2 team.
The reason the the team who won Div 2 last got moved up is because their RAC was over 10M/day.

Yes I was aware of that, perhaps I'm just being pararnoid
Doesn't take much work on a high scoring GPU project to push over that limit.Not looking like there's much enthusiasm here for an Enigma challenge

Now there is an idea ... starting Nov 1 we'll jump on the highest paying GPU project we can find and run it for you guys
Well if folks don't want to have a little team-to-team challenge then that's okay. We can just continue on the same boring way till the end of FB.
Yeah...a hand full of high end GPU's at Collatz will easily push you to that 10 million RAC. So, you really do have to plan accordingly if you don't want bumped up to the big boys... I had mentioned this to my team in the past. One of the safest projects would be SETI considering a lot of the work units may sit pending for a few months and they aren't a high scoring project.
Here is an example of one host from a teammate doing ~2.5 million PPD http://boincstats.com/en/stats/86/host/list/0/0/173981/1 or http://boinc.thesonntags.com/collatz/show_host_detail.php?hostid=689096
Also, keep in mind many teams may be doing the WCG birthday challenge in November. WCG is a low scoring project.
