For those of you who have yet to update your lunatics optimised apps version 0.38 is available and does make a measureable difference to completion times - don't delay download today!

Congratulations to our tiffy winners this week Mr hamesy is now a multi millionaire and Mr Reavers 25,000,000 .... word has it he's still in the wc well done all.
Mr BaBa has hooked his mains supply upto a nuclear power station and looks set to surge past the lot of us at a rate of speed eye popping output this week very well done.

Seti seemed all over the place at the start of the week for those that operated on a small cache and those who had run out of work it was darned near impossiblle to crunch. I donated a tad to Folding@home and i would suggest that everyone finds a backup project for when the going gets tough .... very annoying but hey it happens.

I got an email lecture on how the news ought to be done ..... they are now blocked and it set me thinking. Have asked multiple times, i know everyone has there own lives and commitments but what does it take to get you guys to have a play with photoshop and the like to grace us with some new graphics? I know there must be a few of you well versed in shall we say "genetically enhancing" what you were born with ... please feel free to turning your talents to the graphics update.
Yup with anyluck if there is more than a few we can take a general vote and the best design gets a prize am sure there's something around here that i can drop in the post :)

So as of today work seems to be coming back down and hopefully we can crack on and get a full week in, thanks to everyone thats contributed this week.

Got a cracking headache now so am going to cut the news short and go horizontal :)

Cheers for the news T, what sort of graphics are you after, the section titles?

I actually had a pretty good week this week, but it probably won't show until next week.

Hope your headache goes soon :)

Your welcome as allways sah, yeah the section titles would be great wherever it mentions top this that and t'other if we made it a 100 then near enough everyone would be mentioned in the news then :D
Thanks for anything you could contribute - dont delay post your entry today (or thereabouts) :)

Thanks for the news Toxic. Don't mention headaches:( Some may know of my ssd woes, which are hopefully resolved now but gave me plenty need to resort to drugs.

Q I have upgrade the Lunatics app to 38 & to latest nVisia drivers. Boinc now shows gpu tasks as cuda_fermi. Every so often I get a computation error which borks something as card is still running same 70-80% but temp drops 20C & time to completion go up 5 fold. Have to reboot. Card is overclocked to 925 core 1850 shader 2150 mem This runs F@H without problem @ 100%.
If I drop to 921/1842/2150 cuda units run without issue:confused: [stock volts on card]. Should I just run the cuda wu's on the lower setting?
Click to expand...

Morning Mr Pilgrim sah!
Yes just run on the lower settings its a pain fiddling between 2 projects but its all good work, odd that you would have to lower clocks for seti i have allways found that i need to lower the clocks for f@h as its quick to throw a hissy fit on higher clocks :confused: Still as long as it works, your keeping both projects on the go and we need all the points we can get to catch Boinc Synergy. Have a good weekend :)
This dodgy ssd bug is catching mine committed harry carry overnight .... another 5am re install lol .... good job i love my seti :eek::D

Thanks for the news Tbag :)

I have photoshop but I ain't no good at making new stuff only photo shopping for comedic effect :p

My rig is going ok nothing special still at stock can't be bothered to overclock it any more :(
Click to expand...

Well at least your honest, as it happens we coud do with a bit of comedy too its very quiet in here lately.
Wether it be at stock or not at least the rigs working now get your lazy behind into updating the drivers and lunatics, it'll take 10 minutes of your time and your output will improve "me swears". Not like you to be off the boil too many late nights "polishing your chrome lad" ;):)

Sorry mate, can't help you with graphics as I have the artistic skills of the average cave man

In the meantime, since you drew up the stats I've done a bit more work and splashed out on this:

:eek::eek: Thats not just an achievement thats showing off in the grandest of styles a gobsmacking 40,000,000 tiffy you ought to be rightly proud of that .... so many zero's i thought my keyboard would run out ... many congratulations Mr Meridian sah!:D
 
Glad the motor is all up and running don't take offence its just me having a dig :) I felt like that earlier in the week when my average was dropping like crazy but you just have to soldier on .... just think of your next stomp :D
 
:D 19 days :) my outputs been so abyssmal boinc stats can't even give me an estimate on the odds of me catching Mr Meridian sah .... about 2 years i reckon at todays output lol :D:D
Top down on the motor, drive in the country, stripper on each arm plenty of shiny chrome - you'll be right come tonight :)

Well I just accessed SETI@home for the first time since 2000! Downloaded boinc. Obviously things ahve progressed since back then btu it's not downloading any work units. Are there currently no units/server issues?

Once I get it all up and running again will look for team ocuk!
Click to expand...

Hi welshdragon

There have been some problems with seti of late but once your up'n running and have a cache of upto 10 days then you should get enough work to carry you over the small blips.
Be good to have you on the team :)
Server Status page and you can click on the community link at the top and have a look at the message boards, they do have a regular scheduled outage usually tuesdays for a few hours

Thanks for the news TT:)

Must be some slacking going on if ive got got to the top in rac;)

Meridian that is a proper tiffy:eek:

Im just coming up on year 12 of the great SETI adventure:cool:
Click to expand...

Your welcome Mr BaBa sah ...slacking indeed ;) No it was seti at the start of the week cache had ran dry and no new work units, a most h'excellent rise to the top of rac ... must try harder ... must try harder ... pesky Mr Reaver is eying up my rear :eek::eek::eek::D
 
Thanks for that Mr Chasser sah very much appreciated but i have dumped a few projects and now cannot seem to find how to alter the size of the remaining text, sorry bout this:o

Thanks for the graphics input Mr dekez sah shall shuffle them into my save folder and see what transpires your effort is much appreciated.

Does anyone have a direct line to Mr Berserker ( as in someone he will answer ) as he does not reply to any emails i have sent :( . Am trying to do a few things it seems like i am haveing to coax people ... no offence Mr Team Founder but its hard to remain motivated and be prepared to help with the Team OcUk web site running costs when i get no input am trying here.:confused:
 
kolala said:
Calm down Mr TTB, I'm sure Mr berserker will be along soon enough.

Have a look at the sig page on team ocuk http://www.teamocuk.co.uk/tsig/bs_setup.php

You can change the font size there, and see what it does to the example code, and then apply the corresponding logic to your own sig code as necessary.

Back at 3.8Ghz and GPU's are running on high lets go!! :D :D :D

Edit: Make that 4Ghz I haven't been to 4Ghz in ages :eek: :)
Click to expand...

Morning Mr 4g nice to see your up and about with the rig, how you finding the newer gpu drivers and lunatics ?
 
Nice one, mine is on the rise too funny how it plummets so quickly and it takes forever to crawl back up to where you once stood :(:)
 
Morning all, seems as though seti is back where it was earlier in the week. Allthough the splitters have been running constantly for the last few days they just cannot keep up.
So hopefully you all filled your cache earlier in the week and you will not be seeing "project has no tasks available" constantly :(

**Edit** There was a time when i blamed Mr Halz sah for everything as he is on extended leave i have no other option to point the finger of blame at ... Mr Marine Iguana :eek::eek::p;)
 
Morning Joeyjojo :)

Sounds like you have lunatics setup right, when you install it it finds the boinc path etc.
Its machine related problems they are having from what i can tell, true funding is allways an issue but right now its hardware.
In boinc manager click on message boards and there is generally some news about whats going on (or down as the case may be) or add the link to your favourites

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_forum.php?id=10

**Edit** Mr Marine is just showing off coz his cache is full when he knows i am sweating like a big girl at a a disco with only 11 tasks left :p;):D
 
BaBa said:
For the first time in ages all my rigs have work:D

Also got my 560ti soc's back in the game, was beginning to think i would have to rma them cos seti was throwing up errors, added a little voltage and now they are stable(at the stock clocks) should be good for at least another 35k:)
Click to expand...

Bravo Mr BaBa sah nowt worse than having to rma something glad it worked out.
Myself hmmmmph am a bit work starved at the moment will keep my fingers crossed today, you'll be stomping me before long sah :(:)
