Gauntlet 2009 Joiners Thread!

As SimonB says, Berkeley have a planned outage every Tuesday (~6pm our time), usually coming back online a few hours later. Of course, connections are slow and/or unreliable afterwards for a while because of the increased traffic caused by a backlog of WUs waiting to be reported. So any connection issues around this time are normal.

Eloquently put

Pst... is it just me or is Stuart G...... putting out a bit more than normal

Cheers, Simon.

Yes. Yes, I think he is, the showy so and so...

Out of interest, I had a a quick look at the team stats for our current production; our RAC has increased by 45,000 this week alone thanks to the gauntlet attracting new users and a bigger push from some of the existing ones :eek:

Well I'm not usually doing SETI and once the gauntlet is over, I'll be back to R@H.

Also, I have managed to get my rig up and running again. Upgraded to 2 x 260GTX's which has increased my numbers somewhat :-)

loudbob · 16 Sep 2009 at 01:06

Also, Thursday should see the arrival of a GTS250 which has just been ordered so I can fill the last slot.

(I need something to get my scores up for the Gauntlet)

NightmareXX · 16 Sep 2009 at 01:13

Heh good man, that's a hefty chunk of RAC there

dekez · 16 Sep 2009 at 10:09

I switched to seti today, com'on Spankers!!!

picnic · 16 Sep 2009 at 16:41

I'm running 2 machines - one has enough units to last several days the other is 50% idle waiting for SETI to dish it out something to do

One's ever growing pending credit does have a way of damping one's spirt.

Guess that why the HMS br83taylor advised for an early start.

Full steam ahead captain, be a while before we lose this head wind

How are us mere mortals supposed to get anywhere near you with only one rig and a laptop?

I think you will find that once the Gauntlet is over, I will slowly sink back into the realms of obscurity (esp. when the 'leccy bill comes in!!).

Just compensate by replacing all the bulbs in the house with 2V energy efficient ones

I already have!

Umm... whats you bill estimate? You've got how many 295s now?

I wouldn't like to guess what the bill will be...

But I've only got 3x 9800GTX+'s and 1x GTS 250. (As you can see in my sig.)

All 4 cards are overclocked 790/2000/1200 core/shader/mem.

loudbob · 16 Sep 2009 at 21:42

And you get a Recent average credit: 39,993.54 cobblestones on those?

I will have to see what mine averages out at when I get the GTS250 installed.

I'm currently @ Recent average credit: 2,347.49 cobblestones (you can stop laughing now)
