Yup, postie has been

Just kicked a dozen or so up. That's my lot.

Edit: Make that five days my quad was knackered. 10th place would have been easy if it wasn't for that. :'(

Unlucky, man.

I thought suicide runs were only supposed to last a few minutes not a few weeks, anyway!

I'm surprised my rigs haven't caused me more problems. Geuss I got away with it!

I think we did a damn fine job.. lets see what comes out in the wash with the final stats.

Berserker · 15 Oct 2009 at 21:30

It had to be my fastest rig that caused the bother. All the rest have been faultless (well, apart from the one that was trying to cook itself which was no loss).

I'm not sure if SETI@Netherlands use the XML stats. If they do, the last update happened at 2AM, so keep poking those queues.

Marine Iguana · 15 Oct 2009 at 21:34

Lucky i almost forgot tonight was the finish

Berserker · 15 Oct 2009 at 21:42

OK, I take that back. Looks like the update has happened and we got 3rd.

And I got 10th, by a mere 351 points. I can only assume Pending saved me. :eek:

Not bad for an all-CPU cruncher, though I don't want to see my next electrickery bill.

Me neither! :eek:

But I still have to empty my caches yet! another 6-7 days! :eek:

Yay.. double third for me

(sorry bob)

Thats OK.

My own fault really, not checking the PC and so it was not on for 7 hours yesterday.

Anyways, Congratulations to you and everyone else.

We did an excellent job, me thinks

Grrrr...
Oh well, it was fun and we didn't do too bad - well done everyone

br83taylor · 16 Oct 2009 at 07:53

yes well done team, shame we couldn't snatch 2nd, but it was a far better showing than last time. made a nice boost to the overall team as well.

Biffa · 16 Oct 2009 at 07:59

Yup, great effort

I'm gonna crunch till I expire my caches then move on

dekez · 16 Oct 2009 at 09:35

Good effort guys

Well it's been fun, I'll be switching back to folding tonight after I've got through the current units. I might still crunch on the CPUs a little for Seti or Rosetta, if anyone still does that.

Berserker · 16 Oct 2009 at 09:44

I'm going to stick around a while, though not at full output. I'll probably move on to other projects eventually but I'd like to join the 7-figure club first (I'm about 6-7 weeks from that).

Biffa · 16 Oct 2009 at 10:33

I *might* stick till 10mill

Stuart Gibson · 16 Oct 2009 at 16:01

I'll still be crunching, but only on one rig, so my output will plummet.

I could never catch Simon anyway, unless he retires!

Good fun while it lasted.

Biffa · 16 Oct 2009 at 16:05

What you going back to? Folding?

Who ? Me ? I'm switching off rigs 2 & 3 until I see my 'leccy bill. :eek:

Seti will always be my number one project.

Marine Iguana · 16 Oct 2009 at 16:22

Well that was fun and we all did well but i have shut down SETI and have got two GPU and two SMP clients on the go
