I'm on 717,000 points. Anyone want a race to 1,000,000?

verbal · 6 Jul 2008 at 20:23

Between theheyes on 618,000 (and going strong) and Emily on 856,000 there is a lot of active crunchers. I'm going to be putting on my folding boots and upping my ppd so who wants some?

Race me to the big 1 million

theheyes · 6 Jul 2008 at 20:38

Lets roll.* :cool:

*Unless you've got a few GPUs standing by to go live.

PhillyDee · 6 Jul 2008 at 21:42

Tempting . . . .

theheyes · 6 Jul 2008 at 23:13

Just did some quick maths and I'd have to seriously ramp up otherwise Emilystoodinsomechocolateicecream and lightning512 will have me well beaten. Hmm.

booyaka · 7 Jul 2008 at 10:34

BRING IT ON!! - count me in!!

booyaka · 7 Jul 2008 at 11:35

estimated in 38 days for me to hit the 1million at current ppd

Will be very very close between me and emily and lightning512 to get there first!!

verbal · 7 Jul 2008 at 12:50

Who says I won't get there first?

theheyes · 7 Jul 2008 at 12:53

You know, if it wasn't for watching the pennies at the moment, there would be another 8800GT winging its way to me by now.

I'm not conceding defeat but I think there's too much ground to make up for me.

Yeggstry · 7 Jul 2008 at 12:58

If I managed to get my PPD back up (i've been away for a few days and the computer has been off) I'll be aiming for 1mil in about 60 days.

booyaka, you'll be #1 in the single cruncher's league for this week ONLY

yeah!! - i can retire happy now knowing that!

shadowscotland · 7 Jul 2008 at 20:56

Nice thread guys - if you ask rich nicely you might even get your one NEWS section

verbal · 7 Jul 2008 at 21:53

Optimistically i make that five takers so far. Our own little news would be very nice mr scotland sah!

booyaka · 7 Jul 2008 at 22:09

indeed - race to a million sections - sounds cool as!!

shadowscotland · 7 Jul 2008 at 22:27

I hadn't ment to offer my services but as you asked so nicely I'll see what I can do.
And I do try to encourage rich and mrs numbers to have a fish supper ever once in a while not that he listens so...

In no particular order.

Verbal
Booyaka
Yeggstry
theheyes(?)
PillyDee

There as lease 5 other that could be in with a shot - make yourselves know if you wants some stats action.

Yeah yeah, count me in. I'm gonna have a pop - I just don't expect to win!

Unless of course some people want to start folding for my username and catapult me over the finish line.

HINT

Yeggstry · 7 Jul 2008 at 23:32

Realistically, I see booyaka winning it. That's not going to stop me aiming for #2

I am very suspicious of you mr. verbal, what are you up to?

booyaka · 8 Jul 2008 at 08:45

will be very close if you project forward in the EOC stats!!

Still a bit worried about Mr verbal as well!

new T7700 2.4ghz core 2 duo lappy arrived yesterday - that may have to be used in dire emergency times!!

Also the gpu WU's are getting a bit harder to crunch now - got a 5011 crunching which is taken the ppd down to around 2000 rather than around 3000 that it was doing with the early units!

shadowscotland · 8 Jul 2008 at 22:27

Just setup some excel sheets and graph tables that I'll post in an official thread in a few days when that data means something

Here's a quick taster, listed in points order. Feel free to comment and make surgestions - may even implement them if not to much hassle

all based around achieving the 1 million finish line.

List of stats so far (top to bottom)
Total points
Points gain (24h)
% of 1mill
% of 1mill gain (24h)

Planning on doing daily stats (snapshot at 8pm each day) but might not be able to update them daily depends on work/home life - will try but no promises.

booyaka · 8 Jul 2008 at 22:31

nice work - happy to help out if you want - let me know if you need a hand with it and will take it on board.

shadowscotland · 8 Jul 2008 at 22:44

All being well, from now on I just add the current scores of all five (or more) members into the spreadsheet and it does the rest (inc the dodgy graph)

As i'm using Kakaostats it's not a problem if i miss the 8-11pm windows as its a rolling 24h cycle and the same info will be avaliable the following day at the same time (does that make sence...)

Thanks for the offer - if life gets silly busy again I'll gladly offload the excel on you
