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. :shock: :shock:

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!! :lol: ).

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

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

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

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

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)
