another late competition by Hammrammstein. Seems to just call them when bored !!
Anyhoo heading towards the first day in and we are currently 9 from 11. Beating Hammrammstein at least

For some reason my computer didn't want to download any work for this. I'll be bringing up the rear I think

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Sun Oct 06, 2013 11:15 pm

Well there is 21 of us contributing so far. You are #5

so crack on lad.
We are still #9 but that can improve...... and we do need a boost to get away from #98 in the world standings.
Got the IGPU working on this too, my inner geek is very happy

we are now 11 from 15.
on a plus note i'm #33

The bad news is that we have dropped to 11th in the challenge.

The good news is that this is out of 15 teams. Better yet is that we are up to 97th by TC for the project.

Best is that we are gaining momentum and could reasonably aim for 7th place in the challenge and at the same time elevate ourselves to 95th in the all time rankings.

Lets go for it!

Our RAC will rise if I can get any units to validate

. Should manage to jump a few places and ensure top 100 status for a while yet !!. Pity the credit suxs compared to Collatz. Feel like I'm back to cpu crunching only.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 12:28 am

we're up to 8th place now having passed our fast becoming traditional rivals of Korea and AMDusers

So far I'm still ahead of Mega but expect to be caught soon. 175 pending

The drop in team credit between running Einstein and Collatz is eye watering, but since Collatz isn't playing ball just now, hey ho

Post by **Megacruncher** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 1:16 am

Beep beep!

I'm now 18th & you are 20th! :)

But that doesn't matter [much]. More importantly we are 96th in the world for Einstein with 95th imminent and 94th likely before the end of the week. Which after months in 99th is rather nice!

Back to the real money in 48 hrs.

Of course it doesn't matter ....... much......
Not much I can do about it either. Over 170 pending GPU units and my 7970 doesn't perform much better than my 660ti's so it's back on Collatz and some Seti for that.
Nice to see Einstein rising as well. I to was getting pretty sick of seeing 99 next to the project on BOINCstats.

Joined! Better late than never, methinks. Most of my self-induced infrastructural problems seem to be straightening out, so back to the fray!

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:35 pm

How on earth are you getting units that validate ? I'm up to 193 gpu units pending now. Absolutely everything going to pending

I had almost caught you , now I'm 38 k behind again and back down to 20. Not a happy bunny.

I think the secret is to be lucky.

Having said which I've got 90 pending units myself.

Anyway we are up to 95th.
We are 8th in the challenge - 7th is probably beyond us and we aren't as far clear of the Koreans as I'd like to be. So crunch on to the end.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 11:38 pm

Aye aye captain. The Koreans are a little too close for comfort and I might as well see if I can hit 200 pending... or 250. The 7970 going back on the case.

Post by **Megacruncher** » Fri Oct 11, 2013 10:20 pm

Just under 20 hours to go and we are sitting 132K clear of the Koreans. This should be enough to secure us 8th place. But no slacking quite yet.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Sat Oct 12, 2013 8:18 pm

That's a pretty impressive list.
Someone has been doing well with a recruitment drive :)

Indeed! There are a lot of silent stalwarts running Einstein.
The best out-come of this is that TSBT have risen to 94th in the world after many months of being parked in 99th.

Our overall credits have suffered a bit though. The DistRTGen challenge should change that however.
