I've actually switched most of my systems back to other projects, but they still have several days worth of HCC WUs left in the cache :toast:

The WCG badge is linked to Free-DC, which is, as Gopal mentioned, currently experiencing technical difficulties. It'll be back, I promise!

Harder it may be, but I welcome a good challenge! Just sailing through life unopposed isn't as exciting as putting up a good fight once in a while

I totally agree

Not sure if I stumbled on this by accident or I'm the last one to the party.. but the hosts of the (8th Birthday) challenge have a dedicated page to track the progress on an hourly basis:

http://www.seti-germany.de/wcg/statistiken/challenge.php

And.. we're winning! But this is seriously close!
