Well my "Team" consist of me. It was created because I'm lazy and it is the best way to check stats across all projects on one page. So I will be joining you on this challenge too.scole of TSBT wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2017 12:11 am If you signed your team up by all means run it with your team. We won't disable your account

I can't get it to run on my Xeon without every WU erroring out after 1 sec but I'll try & persuade the rest of the croft to give it a whirl.

It's not a computation error. The project is declaring them Abandoned for some reason. Don't know what it is but it looks like maybe that host doesn't have SP1 installed. Some projects apps require that but I figure it would either not download WU or you'd get computation errors if that were the case.Megacruncher wrote: ↑Thu Sep 28, 2017 12:10 amI can't get it to run on my Xeon without every WU erroring out after 1 sec but I'll try & persuade the rest of the croft to give it a whirl.
Looking at the top computers on the project, Windows appears to be the preferred OS for this project and I didn't see any computer inside the top 140 or so running Win 7 that didn't have SP1 installed. Could try installing it.

It is the ladies team from FC Rossiyanka, which hails from Krasnoarmeysk, not far from Moscow.
Another publicity still:

TSBT also currently sitting in first place
Tejas 1st

Alez 11th
Megacruncher TSBT 32nd
There's plenty of room in the posts for me to happily add more names. Every unit crunched adds points to the team !!

TSBT still leading the pack - although it's close and the Russians are gaining on us.
Great individual standings too -
scole 1st
Tejas 3rd
Alez 10th
I've moved up to 14th. I got the Xeon to run it eventually - Win 7 SP1 just would not install so I ended up giving another £99.99 to Microsoft for Windows 10. Still it's zinging along nicely now. And Cortana is friendly.

Got home tonight, got my dead server up and running, updated linux on my main server and it promptly died. Awesome !!!. Server has now been rebuilt to lubuntu 17.04 but can't get it to act as a wifi hotspot just now, so server back and running but no wifi for the droids. That will be a job for tomorrow after finishing the pro kart rebuild for it's debut on Sunday.

The pendings do build up. Around 20% of what I've completed are pending.

My pendings are closer to 40%. Hopefully they start flowing in soon.

Does it run better on Windoze or Linux.
I had a 1M project disappear off my stats and couldn't figure out which one it was. For some reason Acoustics is the culprit and when I checked the FreeDC stats I saw that Scole and Pete had big numbers. I didn't know this was going on.
As my machine roll off of Leiden (FB Sprint) I'll put them on it since I have to run it anyway.

Hey Dirk, did you see me wave when I went by?
Why are you guys complaining about pendings ... only 16% of what I've turned in has validated. That really sucks!

Classic project with high rate of pendings challenge. There's 80 hours left in the challenge. To minimize pendings you need to load a full 80 hours work on each system now and hope your wingman completes his within that time.

Over half way thru the comp and TSBT are well out in front in a two horse race with Russia Team. :wav:
Surely there's no reason that the pending situation should favour the ruskies? The harder other teams try the more likely it is that they will validate our work? Or am I missing something?

#46 Re: 28/9 - 5/10 Ocean of fantasy - Acoustics@home
Most of your pendings are probably sitting in Scole's cache Actually, I checked quite a few of mine and there are a number of Ruskies that have a average turn around time of 4-6 days. I have bunches of finished WU where they are my wingman. The best ones I have are some of Scole's machines.
Things are getting better on my end, 21% of what I've turned in has validated ... that's progress

My Threadripper has landed.
Early indications are that it kicks the Xeons arse for much less outlay!
I'll put it onto Acoustic for a day or two. But we are so far ahead of the Russians that it shouldn't be necessary. It might just put me in with a chance of joining scole, McShane, Tejas & Alez in the top 10. Not that that matters!

Thanks for the help Pete.

18 hours left, no chance of us being caught. I've nearly 1500 pendings, think it's safe enough to coast across the line now.

I wasn't planning on doing this until after the challenge ended however the FB Sprint is going to be announced momentarily. I have to enable my network so I can pull work. Sorry Tejas!
Depending on the percentage that goes into pending the Russian in 4th position may get pushed a bit.

That was my expection -or- Enigma maybe. Since GPUGrid only allows Nvida GPUs and no CPUs I really didn't think they would ever pick it. That shows how much I know
Who knows, they might even pick Wep/Wanless with only Linux support. I guess if it is on the list it is fair game.

@Pete, if you change teams to one that is not registered it takes you out of the individual standings. The team you were crunching for doesn't lose credits you just don't show up in the individual stats anymore. If you had rejoined TSBT then on the next challenge update you would show up again with all your credits. If you had changed to a team that was registered your credits would have continued to show but the team would change.
