Have you got pie today?

Woohoo, lime pie!

Nicely done everyone, it's great to see 4x4n getting pie again

 

[twilyth]

crap. I think I grabbed the wrong pie. Not sure which one it is, but if you ate any, just keep schtum - pie, what pie?

Seriously. I don't know what i did wrong but that was definitely the wrong pie or pie from a parallel universe.

It's fixed now.

It looked right to me...at least the first couple slots?

Mindweaver again leads the crowd with everyone else more-or-less falling in where they always are. Competition was fierce for spots 2-4

I installed bionc today and have been crunching for like 5 hours with TPU on my previous WCG account but how long does it take for your points to update?

WCG sends updates 4 times per day, about every 6 hours. You won't actually be awarded any points until a WU (work unit) has been validated. That might happen right away, as soon as it is uploaded, or it might take days. It's hard to say.

If you don't want to wait, you can always go to your account on WCG. Log in and go to my grid, then results status. They are reported there in real time.

Sort by return time rather than sent or due times and the completed wu's should appear first. You can also filter by host (cpu), project, status

It'll take 0-100 hours for your WUs to start validating (some WUs validate instantly, some can literally sit for a week or tow) and then points will show up on Free-DC and BOINCStats within a few hours

Domination by Mindweaver with everyone else falling where they always do (with the notable exceptions of KieX who is down a couple spots and dustyshiv up a couple spots)

 

[[Ion]]

Myself dropping out of the pie market for tonight meant that there was a new spot open--in this case for dhoshaw

 

[[Ion]]

Competition is fierce tonight, especially for the first few spots, held by Mindweaver and KieX with 23.6 and 17.9k points, respectively!

 

[[Ion]]

It's been a few days since I last posted pie, but here we go, and very nicely done everyone

 

[[Ion]]

Mindweaver leads the pack by about 10k points, and KieX is down a bit, leaving room for HammerON to move up more:

 

[brandonwh64]

were you get your points from?

 

[twilyth]

were you get your points from?

It's the same link as in the other thread where you asked about the stats, but there is a button just above the table you have to click on called "show graphs"

 

[brandonwh64]

Hmm why does it show diffrent stats than the WCG site? i still dont know how this boinc points system works LOL

Didn't we have this discussion? Or am I thinking of someone else? I don't remember.

1 boinc point = 7 WCG points.

The historical reason for it is that WCG used to run other software (United Devices) that did pts calculations differently. This was maybe 4 or 5 years ago. For a while, they ran both the United Devices client and BOINC but eventually switched to BOINC only. At that point they had to reconcile the 2 systems and this conversion factor is what they came up with.

I'm bookmarking this post so I can refer back to it in the future for explanations. Very well explained, thank you

Today sees Mydog joining from XtremeSystems and pulling 2nd place pie on his first day! Mindweaver leads the group with 34k points, in total there are three members with over 20k points today
​

 

[[Ion]]

Mydog has another 30k+ day, earning him No1 pie today. Again, there are three members with more than 20k points today
​

 

[Mydog]

Good work pie eaters

 

[HammerON]

Nice farm

Nice farm

Sure gotta love i7s and their PPD/W

Yeah the i7s have good PPD/W but this farm still use over 2k W crunching and I'm paying the bills here

My PentDC farm is about 3kW.....and it only does ~13-14k PPD w/ all that. So about 3x the PPD of my i7 for about 12x the power
