Day 1 Results

Looking good team!

[Ion] · Nov 17, 2015

Weird, that hadn't updated last night when I was trying to update the Challenge thread :eek:

Seems the Challenge updates usually kick in during the AM (est) the following day.

silentbogo · Nov 17, 2015

Over 8 mil. That's crazy!

Even my phone is in the contest mood. It pooped out more than 5000 points yesterday and keeps it at average >2000PPD for the past 4 days :rockout:

stevorob · Nov 17, 2015

I'm in.

thebluebumblebee · Nov 17, 2015

I would highly suggest that, to get the most PPD, run OET only. I'm seeing higher than expected PPD on my W7/8 systems and MUCH higher than expected on my Linux boxes. My 4.4GHz 2600K is averaging >9K and got almost 12K yesterday. I have been running only OET since November 1st.

Edit: BTW, the 3450 and the 3770K are not dedicated. The 2600K's are 24/7 on Linux.

Crap.. That's what I wanted to do prior to challenge and forgot about it

Then again, I've seen better pdd over the last day or so too so not sure what's going on but I'll take it

thebluebumblebee · Nov 17, 2015

Got a friend to fire up his 4690 for the duration.

T-Bob · Nov 17, 2015

Count me in! Still crunching from the last one

Day 2 Results (a little late)

Judging from the current points, XS may catch Seti as they're making daily gains; also looks like we shall be quite content with 5th :rockout:

stevorob · Nov 19, 2015

I finally have setup BOINC on my wife's PC - set it so that it only runs while she isn't gaming or doing anything super intensive. This should help bring in a bit more.

Silvertigo · Nov 19, 2015

Still playing. The 775 fleet is grinding along still all with Quads and small OC`s running stable.

Just bought a X5650 for $120, now gotta save more pennies to build something around it

I don't know @manofthem , I think we can overtake Plantet3Dnow!! Not that far behind them. :rockout:

I would love for that to happen but P3D is maintaining a good lead over us. We need MOAR POWA!

t_ski · Nov 19, 2015

It doesn't look like their lead is steady from the first day. Maybe we can catch up

thebluebumblebee · Nov 19, 2015

We were 1.6M behind China this morning. Now we're 1.7M behind. We're not catching up, and @[Ion] is dropping off for some reason.

t_ski · Nov 19, 2015

meh... maths...

No worries Team even if we don't catch/pass someone to get to the next position we've made them step up their game and push a little harder to keep their position.... making MOAR win for science and WCG :rockout:

*Note- I apologize for not getting a lot going on prizes this time around but wanted to let you know that we do have some challenge prizes to giveaway. Watch this thread as the challenges closes this weekend for more details!

AND

A game giveaway coming courtesy of @manofthem coming up real soon :respect:

Three of my systems had run out of work because my Ethernet bridge failed. It's been restored so numbers should be back up :toast:

It isn't all about the prizes @Norton Its more about the way this amazing Team TPU works together to make some amazing challenges and having fun all the while helping medical research! As far as I am concerned, I would still be doing the EXACT same thing regardless of having prizes or not.

To Team TPU! :respect:
