WCG team position

[Bryan]

I need 4.5 days to get the Zika badge I'm hunting and that will be that for WCG. At least until the new projects come out and then I'll have to get those badges

[Megacruncher]

Personally, I’m more than happy to settle for us ending the year as 91st!
This far exceeds my ambitions for 2018!
We are now secure in the top 100 for WCG & everything else.
Rejoice!

Merry Christmas Megacruncher

[Bryan]

Happy New Year too Megacruncher!

I still need 3 days to get my 100 year Zika badge so we will be close to 90th or have it when I wrap it up. I will definitely pull off of WCG the second I hit my goal

Hi there Mega - good to see you back

As far as WCG goes, I will be happy to keep most of my cores busy on there while you mercenaries go off hunting badges I think the rest of the TSBT team should be able to largely sustain our #91 position (with one or two possible exceptions; Fairleigh Dickinson University, 5by14). We'll soon holler if we need the cavalry

[Cruncher Pete]

Yeah, Happy New Year Willie, we missed you but noted that your machines were still working in the background.

[Megacruncher]

Thanks guys.
No reason to switch the machines off even if I couldn’t contribute to the Xmas banter.

[Hal Bregg]

So we are we atm?

[davidBAM]

#91 but should be #90 on next stats update

Hoping to gain a place by the weekend #89 beckons

[davidBAM]

now at #89 well done all

[davidBAM]

We are going to drop a place soon as Project Natick are doing in excess of 4M per day

[davidBAM]

Ah ha ... Project Natick is Microsoft's underwater data centre using renewable energy to run 864 servers. It is based in Orkney. I googled it and immediately recognised Stromness in this photo

[davidBAM]

Think I'll drop them an email suggesting that they join the TSBT team

[davidBAM]

Neumannium Labs are resurgent at 2.6M per day; can't live with that. We'll drop another place tomorrow

[davidBAM]

And Neumanniums defectors are still with Byteball.

Neumannium Labs are resurgent at 2.6M per day; can't live with that.

Maybe this explains why my Byteball account no longer shows a US$ value against the points? I am guessing Byteball is in trouble?

[davidBAM]

Neumannium Labs are resurgent at 2.6M per day; can't live with that. We'll drop another place tomorrow

We didn't drop a place after all. Neumannium Labs not earning much at all ATM.

More significantly, TSBT is earning more since the end of the Acoustics challenge; it looks like this weekend might actually see us gain a place instead
