This final sprint of the 2023 Formula Boinc season. We'll announce the project. Join us please!

The project is Yoyo! Crunch and earn a badge. I recommend plain ECM.

Of course, if you have an AMD GPU and running WIndows, you can install a custom version of m-queens and run it on the AMD GPU

Update on the sub-projects. Plain ECM is the easiest to run but some WUs now use up to 3GB so make sure your systems have their prefs set to limit the amount of RAM boinc uses. Also, ECM P2 WUs have a much faster runtime than plain ECM but they use 8GB RAM per WU so make sure you manage the client properly so you don't max out the RAM and cause response issues or crashing. One more thing, if you run multiple boinc clients per computer, yoyo does not support that and WUs on either or both clients will get marked abandoned and disappear. That can be a wicked pissa if they already had 12 hours runtime on them.

Despite all of which, we won Day One by an unexpectedly wide margin. Hurrah!
So let’s crack on and make it a clean sweep of 2023 FB sprints!

Yay!
We won it.
Which means we won all the FB sprints in 2023.
23 we won all 3 days.
596 out of a possible 600 sprint points. Nice!
Hurrah for TSBT!
