I need to earn that sapphire Zika badge. Who else is in?

[Silver]

Yeah, I could give it a go.
See if I can upgrade a badge too

[scole of TSBT]

It's well within the WU deadline on Ebola, Zika, TB and MCM so time to bunker if you want to.

[Silver]

I'm not sure I'm that organised.
I can bunker ok on my pc, its getting my droids sorted that's more the problem

[scole of TSBT]

I don't ever bunker my androids. Last time I did that they acted up and I had to re-flash a couple of them.

[Silver]

Of course if I just thought before I typed, I could have come to the conclusion that I could just bunker on my pc and leave my droids alone.

[Megacruncher]

I'll be there.
Bunkering where I can.
Plus I'll do my utmost to get the droid patch going again.

[scole of TSBT]

Alrighty then! Everything loaded and relaxing for the next 6 days.

[Megacruncher]

The bunkering has begun.

[scole of TSBT]

We're off to a great start!

[Megacruncher]

Yup! Eight hours in, Gridcoin are in a commanding first place but we are a convincing second. There are some big hitters on our tail so we may possibly lose some ground over the next 3 days, but we should end well up the field (of 21 so far).
It's a fairly well subscribed comp with 1182 users involved so far. Currently TSBT claim 4 of the top 50, including scole in pole position! :wav:

[Megacruncher]

It's Tough at the Top #1
Our convincing second is now a plucky & pretty-good-for-a-wee-team-on-WCG 5th. Still, we should finish in the top 3rd of the field. And before the comp is out we are likely to gain a couple of places on the long march back to the top 100. :) Already we are up to 65th by RAC! 8)

It's Tough at the Top #2
I reckon I'm a day away from being over-thrown off my throne as heid-honcho for TSBT on WCG, as Sphyxx's much appreciated assistance hits home. Never mind, I'm always happy to take one for the team!

[scole of TSBT]

We've broken the 1 million mark for this comp!

[Megacruncher]

We've broken the 1 million mark for this comp!

:wav:
Yup and with us 600K ahead of AMD Users and with just 17 hrs left, we can be sure that we won't drop below our current, quite respectable, 8th of 22.

[Silver]

Great going team
I was hoping to make the top 100 but it's not looking good, unless a fair chuck of my pending units validate soon...... anyway go TSBT!

[Megacruncher]

And 8th it was!
Well done team! :wav:

The Individual Contributions were (top 500 first - I'll sift the other 1500 later):
scole 8th
Sphynxx 12th
Megacruncher 29th
alez 61st
Skywalker 141st
paul 146th
stuartsjs 185th
Andynichol 294th

[scole of TSBT]

Good job gang. I was able to upgrade my Zika badge and should have my 5 year MCM badge after tonight's or tomorrow's update. :)

[Alez]

A sneaky wee pirate ended up 18th from 22 teams as well, crushing the likes of the mighty Wet Noodle Factory and others :)
