Very well done indeed, colourful first badge

And another bronze bit the dust

Nice one Dirk.
There can't be many projects you haven't crunched!

Well, actually I was a bit late with WCG -see my badges. In FreeDC I have credit for 82 projects (only missing CERN's Beauty@Home), but AMD Users as team have crunched no less than 164 projects.

You have more Bronze Stars than the 82nd Airborne. Where you gonna put them all? :salute:

I'm not in there, I don't export my WuProp stats. I have 304 little stars so that'll give you a close approximation.

Dirk, like you I started a little late but more importantly I didn't pay enough attention to it. For example, BitCoin not only had the asic stuff, but for each sub-project they had Nvida, AMD, and CPU apps. I didn't run any of those and unfortunately they are going away with the next project that is released. Oh well, live and learn

If you haven't seen it, HERE is a new one. Also, Albert has introduced and new sub-project but they haven't really put out a lot of WU yet.

Yeah I didn't pick up on that one either. Like you say, i'll know next time.

If you've got 312 how come you don't have 15 stars??

68 of them haven't even reached bronze....

Post by **Bryan** » Sun Jun 26, 2016 3:17 pm

Oh I see ... I have 39 that didn't make it. Since they are dead sub-projects I guess they will forever be in that state

May they rest in peace.

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Thu Jun 30, 2016 6:00 pm

I usually wait for badges to actually show up on the signature before posting, but it's been a little quiet lately and the forum could use a new post.

On my 2nd ring, the 7th star is now silver and I've added a 8th bronze star

Silver · Post by **Silver** » Thu Jun 30, 2016 6:53 pm

Just as I was going to boast about turning a bronze star silver........
Well done Scole, keep racking up the hours

star #12 twinkling away

Post by **Bryan** » Fri Aug 26, 2016 1:06 am

PG has a new app - AP27. It runs on GPU and CPU. This is a chance to get a new little star.

The credits close to the "old" AP26 app so if you have that badge all you can do is work on your badge color. The AP26 app has been dead for several years so if you didn't get the badge then this is your golden opportunity

Finally added some color to my second badge with a 6th ruby star.

Post by **Dirk Broer** » Tue Sep 06, 2016 11:31 pm

I am thinking of making my 6th star green/emerald in the near future

They've started juggling the apps again, I have to postpone the redecoration from ruby to emerald

Just pushed all silverware to the 3rd badge and on the verge of making the 1st star of my 2nd badge emerald after all

And thanks for the info Bryan!

Post by **Bryan** » Sat Oct 22, 2016 2:20 pm

PG has a new one ... at least it was new to me:

Generalized Cullen/Woodall (Sieve)

That'll give me my 2nd star on the 4th ring

Post by **Dirk Broer** » Sun Oct 23, 2016 12:23 am

GCW Sieve was suspended till yesterday. Your WCG badge is already amethyst, you might have logged some hours before...
Then again: mine is amethyst too, and I can't find the app in WuProp...

Earned my 4th sapphire star

. That one was painful. Either projects ran out work or limited the number of WUs they would send. Had to switch projects/apps a few times. On to some WCG work!

Post by **CycloneRanger** » Thu Oct 27, 2016 1:38 am

Most impressive, scole! I've just re-entered after a long layoff, and I see there's quite a lot of work to be done. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I have fallen no lower than 27th overall. It's back to semi-serious crunching for me. All hail the jolly members of TSBT!

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Thu Oct 27, 2016 2:28 pm

Welcome back CycloneRanger :) You should create a WUProp account and add that project to any system you crunch on, including android phones/tablets. It's a NCI project which means it uses practically no CPU resources.

Post by **CycloneRanger** » Thu Oct 27, 2016 3:53 pm

Thanks ... done.

Earned my 8th silver star (3rd star on second badge) and 9th bronze star (4th star on second badge)

Thanks to the arrival of the two new GoofyxGrid apps I have managed my second badge

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Fri Dec 30, 2016 10:26 pm

Awful quiet on the forum so I'm forced to do some shameless bragging

Earned my first 1 million hour app recently on GoofyxGrid@Home Monkeys v1 - Random generator A :naka:

Too bad they stop awarding new star colors at the 100K purple star

Post by **Dirk Broer** » Fri Dec 30, 2016 11:53 pm

I daresay you run some containers/VM-boxes doing so, Scole
(and nothing wrong with that, I will venture too in that area)

I'm on my way to purple star no 3 and 4 with Goofy. POGS and Enigma already there. Almost have a bronze go silver and a silver go gold. Think 7 apps from another bronze. Not been a mass of new apps lately and quite a few projects seems to have little or no work.

Post by **Bryan** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 12:35 pm

Here's a couple I just got:

Boinc Test HERE

Private GFN Server HERE The invitation code is PrimeGrid

You won't get credits from either one but you do get WuProp hours 8)

Post by **Dirk Broer** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 11:04 am

I'm on my way to purple application-star no 3 and 4 too with Goofy. With me Moo! and Enigma are already there.
Almost have the 2nd badge-star (now Sapphire) go Magenta and that 13th bronze badge-star is only one app away.

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Wed Jan 11, 2017 12:43 am

I'm so close to another magenta star I can smell it.

EDIT: turns out it wasn't the star. I apparently need some new shoes

Post by **scole of TSBT** » Wed Jan 25, 2017 1:36 pm

Finally got that 3rd magenta star

and picked up the 7th red star

(I've corrected it but I apparently stutter when I write

)

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Fri Jan 27, 2017 5:10 am

Nice going.

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Sun Jan 29, 2017 9:02 pm

Finally made a bronze go silver and only one more project away from 13th star. New BU apps should cover that in a few days hopefully.

Post by **Dirk Broer** » Sun Jan 29, 2017 10:21 pm

Just got a 12th silver badge star, now all I have to do it to wait for the 2nd star to turn magenta and the 14th star to appear, and then I have two stars of each -up to magenta that is.
