A thread to record and encourage our current team push to improve our position over the space of this year and into the future on the slightly neglected but very worthwhile group of WCG projects.
All team members are encouraged to run a little WCG at their convenience to improve our standings.

Two quick little questions. First, why is the rank stated as 156 on boincstats.com but 158 on WCG's own rank list?
Second, what is the difference between points generated and points returned on WCG?

WCG does its own thing and the BOINC portal was a late comer. They reduce their normal WCG credits so that it fit within the BOINC credit "guidelines" that were in use at the time. Now WCG is one of the lower paying projects.

That's an improvement of 7 places in about a month.

IBM Austin beat! 146th now!
And the next comp starts i6 hours 20min .Given the recent stellar performance it doesn't look as if anyone other than me has been bunkering - but maybe we don't need to bother given our RAC, by which we are 35th in the world.

Are you guys still working toward improving your position? I haven't seen a position update in a while. If so, I'm about done with one of my other goals and will be upgrading a WCG badge for the foreseeable future. Since you guys have come to our rescue so many times, I'll be glad to throw in my lot with TSBT for a bit.

Did anyone else notice that after the WCG server maintenance yesterday that all their machines became untrusted? Mine were 100% trusted with only 1/2 page of pendings on SCC, now that has increased to 61 pages. At this point I'm getting quorum of one, but during the re-trusting I got 100s of quorum of 2 wus.
Edit: Appears the validators are down according to their forum. Looks like a forced bunker that should advance TSBT another spot when it clears.

No obvious problems for me either, mixture of OET and Open Zika.
And, yes Sphynx, as scole says this is still a team priority although it's an ultra-marathon and the sheer tedium of the task can sometimes lead to some collective loss of focus.
But as of today we are up to 130th now!.
We have been helped considerably by your contribution over the last few days, plus of course scole's return to the fold, not to mention my relatively modest but steady efforts. [I'm hoping to get my RAC above 50K and to join you and scole in the top 1000 by total credit by the end of April. :-)1111th at present]
We are very pleased and grateful to have you on board!
