Well, the echo of fanfare for our 100 million triumph has barely died in the hills and we've blasted our way through 101 million credits!

then just 3 days later 102mil is felled.
It is also worthy to note that for the first time in the history of this team SETI@home has been relegated to second place for daily credit.
The mighty PS3/GPUgrid juggernaut being the project to dethrone the long standing King.

And, now that I'm back from doing the decent thing by UBT, our RAC will rise further and the PS3/GPUgrid juggernaut will crush all before it (eventually, SETI does have a 30 million head start!!

).

I reckon that it will be a million every 3 days from now on!

Even better we could be UK #3 before the year is out!

If today's update is anything to go by, it's more likely to be a million every other day! Credit/day for 16/Sep: 513,233

We haven't even had today's full update and yet we've hit 104 Million Credits!!

And that's the second day in a row the daily update has been more than 500k!!

Post by **Megacruncher** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:37 pm

We are on fire! The day's total of 565K was top 20 material!
And we have leapt up 2 places to 61st in the World!

am i the only thinking we should restrict this to every 5 million ? these 1 millions are getting a bit common now lol

Post by **Megacruncher** » Thu Sep 18, 2008 12:41 am

There are no, & never will be, any restrictions on Kudos!

In practice if you pass a milestone every second day... then you know that you are averaging 110 yards per hour. Draw your own inferences!

I don't know at what point last night/this morning it happened, but we've blasted through 105 Million Credits!!

I think I'm going to post every five from now; I can't keep up with this every day/other day carry on!

Ah, I can see why you say that - it should have been 110 ft/hr! Sorry for any confusion.

And speaking of 110, thats 110,000,000 Now! 8) :wav:

I'm sure it won't be long before you're right, but we're currently up two place to 58th in the world.

Doh! A bit of double accounting there.

I've got my eye on Boinc UK currently in 56th place. Still 58th isn't too shameful! :)

Yip, every 5 million is probably about the right cheer point!

Ye Gods! It took Scotland's Seti from September 2004 to August 2005 to rack up our first 5 million but now TSBT can do the same trick in 8 days! We are outpacing Moores law & some! 8)
