The Scottish Boinc Team

I switched back to SUSA but returned most of the machines back to their "normal" crunching. Hopefully the stats export is at 1200 UTC. If so it won't show that I was ever here

Congrats on the win guys!

@Scole, congrats on the new milestone as well!

That would certainly explain it.

@Dirk, it appears you have the problem with LAF taken care of quite nicely

Look out Dirk, I'm on your six :) I am busy battling 10 members of LAF for 5th place, so please pass... Dirk do you want to do it on your own or would you be open to a "little" help? I could give you a couple hours worth. I don't know what is happening to Sphynx and CIneon ... it appears ...

Look out Dirk, I'm on your six :)

Should we be able to return the favour in the future you know where we are. We raise a glass to your boinc cooperative spirit, fill it with a tipple of your choice. SlÃ inte. I think you have it backwards! If it wasn't for the help we received from TSBT during the Pentathlon we would NOT have finis...

My impression of a SUSA team challenge discussion... http://marvelmods.com/forum/Smileys/marvel/captainamerica2.gif "Mumps. Smash." http://marvelmods.com/forum/Smileys/marvel/hulk_icon.gif Or from the old movies; "Igor, kill" or "Release the Kracken" :roll: Boy I'm gla...

Something like 1500 cores :) Far beyond we mere mortals!

I'm still in the top 10 despite mumps coming past me like a freight train through a crossing, oh well, still happy days With the change in Mumps' ramp I'd say that B@P might get bumped before it is over. The last hour's numbers puts SUSA within 89k with the time remaining. I'm betting his output in...

When you bunker for 10 days before a challenge, by day 5 of the challenge you're ready to start on something else :P That is certainly a true statement. I'd rather be working almost anything else right now :lol: 2 more days and then it will be a very long time before I return! I'm not even tempted ...

I did my final bunker dump I am now running live. I think we have a fairly decent chance of winning this one ... unless B@P can out produce us by 20k/hour for the next 3 days.

Team Rank

We are currently 9th:

8th in 3.5 hours
7th in 6.5 hours
6th in 3.5 days

Try this: http://denis.usj.es/denisathome/top_teams.php RAC That shows us with the #1 Rac and if you note the credits 1.6M and then sort on total credits you'll see that we are #10. They just haven't updated the list on credits yet. Click on any team name in the list to see their current credits. We...

If you go to the project's "top teams" and click on TSBT you'll find that the credits are up to date. When they export stats the next time it should show:

TSBT is now the #10 team on the project and we have the #1 RAC . 8)

I would still complain about the bunkering though. Every challenge needs some controversy. Should I complain right before or right after I do my next bunker drop? I'm in the same boat as you. We're heading out of town for a couple of days so tomorrow I have no choice but to do a drop. We will get b...

So Sphynx, how is the view from up there on the top of the heap?

I think I'm going to get on the challenge chat and complain about people bunkering

Scole must have been your wingman on quite a few WU. He got a really good bounce that matched your drop.

Welcome to the team and challenge Hal-TSBT and Crannog.TSBT. You folk are new around here, but I can tell you're going to fit right in. http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/personnages/1ecossais.gif Hal (Sphynx) had a 8000 WU bunker at the start. I think he has only released about 1/2 of it. Crannog (c...

@Dirk, I really think you looked at the stats incorrectly, I'm almost positive that TSBT is one of the top 10 teams on Denis. Maybe the stats sites just haven't caught up yet

Welcome home Alez and thanks for the help!! This is going to be a wild ride!

There's gonna be

I got the 1st bunker (5k) uploaded.

Oh ye of little faith ... are you sure that TSBT isn't a top 10 team on the project?

Well there are two ways to look at it Dirk:

Either it gives us more butts to kick -or- we won't finish any lower than 14th position

I will have the last of the bunkered WU completed about 6 hours before the start. It looks like this: In progress (22396) Â· Validation pending (668) That'll give us approx. 670k ready to go. B@P has 37 folks putting up credits so our small team needs all the help it can get :evil: I will release ap...

I'm looking forward to hour one of the challenge, see what Bryan can offload in just 60 minutes... :o Actually I'm planning on doing something I've never done before ... I'm going to do drops every couple of days. If I totally unload up front then everyone has a target to shoot at. If I stagger the...

July 4 18,000 Tasks in progress July 7 39,000 Tasks in progress July 10 60,097 Tasks in progress I know where 1/3 of them are: :twisted: In progress (19175) Â· Validation pending (826) The 24 thread machines will run out of work tonight so I will add 1 more VM to each and grab 1920 more WU so when ...

BTW, DENIS has stopped allowing new hosts for the time being apparently. At can't add it to a new client anyway. Yep, it's difficult to add a project to a new client when the firewall is blocking access to the server :roll: It would be a little more challenging that way :lol: It looks like B@P is t...

No, I'd want this if I were to buy Intel....

You're right ... that has come out since I last looked in December. Much better!

And for only $100,000+ you could be the 1st kid on the block to own one!!

BTW, DENIS has stopped allowing new hosts for the time being apparently. At can't add it to a new client anyway. I added 4 this afternoon (VMs) and got 640 WU loaded and crunching now on each machine. I had trouble attaching yesterday morning but after several hours I was able to get attached and l...

@Dirk -- screw the Opterons, This is what you want. http://www.memory4less.com/m4l_itemdetail.aspx?itemid=1474732391&partno=E7-8890v2&rid=90&origin=pla&gclid=Cj0KEQiAiO-kBRCNxtaJp4-En6sBEiQAnkvW306Mm3obVirY3wlK-t9gGf1D1tNRTp9awbEeV1NbIjMaArtX8P8HAQ BTW, 8 of them will work together a...

When I 1st started the bunker there were 18k WU in progress and now there are 39k so there are others bunkering as well. Only 11,000 of those are mine :lol: My 24 thread machines will be out of work in about 3 more hours so I'll have to switch to Linux VMs to get another load for them. The 12 thread...

I have 5400 finished so I'll start the 2nd bunker (5760) in about 2 hours

I just started bunker #1 a few minutes ago. I'm chewing on 5760 WU (175k) and in 2 days I can switch to Windows BOINC and start chewing on 5760 more :roll: It appears there is some serious bunkering going on. I've been running the project for 3 days and over the last 18 hours my pendings, which had ...

Dang, if I wasn't running native Linux I'd kick 3 7970s your way and help kick SUSA butt. Unfortunately, I don't have a clue as to how to get them to work on Linux and I'm bunkering Denis so I can't switch to Windows yet.

A good friend of mine, Bowmore, said that he plans on attending the party :occasion7: He also said that the project has a 10 day deadline and will give 10 WU per thread with a 640 WU/machine max. So those who have 64 thread machines and set their BOINC preferences to .5 / 10 days will get a full loa...

@Alez, thank you! That kept me from having to shoot back at an old friend. I'm sure that my 144 threads are what caused the project to run out of work

It's good to be back Steve. I'm afraid that I won't be able to stay long (a few more hours). I have CAS and Sztaki WU suspended and I'm getting close to the deadlines. I don't want to piss off the servers by letting them time out.

We caught ngb so I can help you get a little bit of a lead.

I'll give you a short boost but will move back home before BStats does their daily update. That way it probably won't show me changing teams. Then after the update I'll move back here again. ngb won't be a problem to catch

Well done everyone, a great result :thumbright: Obviously I would've been challenging Bowmore for the lead had the project not run out of work :wink: It's a good thing you guys were asleep when the work came back otherwise I would have been in trouble :lol: Great run guys ... it was fun! We'll do i...

And I haven't learned my lesson yet to keep my bunker full. :oops: Yes, stupidity on my part. I wasn't having any trouble getting work so I had my cache set at .5 days. Lesson learned, that isn't the way to load up for a challenge :( Poland is tapering off as well so we may hold #3. I still have 3 ...

Well there is 3rd place 8) I'm getting low on cached WU and some machines will start running dry in the next few hours. If the project doesn't start giving more work I will be totally empty within 6 hours.

I was doing some spying on the competition, SUSA, and found that they've seen that I'm running Enigma and were glad to have me. I just said; "Yep, I'm running full bore!" I just didn't bother to tell them where :lol: Unfortunately, a friend said since I was running it he would join in the ...

It's looking MUCH better. We need 2k/hour to take down SUSA for the #2 spot and right now we've got them by 5k/hr! 8)

We're gaining on them but far too sloooowwwwly

Flog them cores guys! Think we can kick some SUSA butt? :violent1:

Looking in my crystal ball I see the number 3 ... I wonder what that means?
