Re: 12/12-19/12 Ramjet memorial WCG challenge

A pretty good showing in the end. Gutted at not having all of these machines online though. Even an extra 1 and I'd have had an easy top 10 position and the team would have held 4th comfortably.

Ah well.

I'm loving this.

Going to go out on a limb here though and suggest that Led Zep may be fairly high on their list of influences.

Good stuff :)

My chances of a top 10 are slipping away :(
I've lost about 30 cores in the past few weeks and it's hurting me.

Re: 26/11-30/11 CRUNCHATHLON WCG [MONTHLY RUN - RACE XXXI]

We're back in third. We can do it!

To be fair to Gruppo Italiano Boinc though, its one guy and he's done an incredible job so we shouldn't feel at all bad if we were to slip and have him take 3rd.

It's amazing how maybe ~15 hours of crunching on day 1 got me into 10th place.

We are 13th out of 94 in the challenge at present which is very respectable given the quality & quantity of opposition, and after all this is WCG we are dealing with. Where do you see this? The link in the first post doesn't seem to update with any stats unless I'm missing something https://www...
