Acoustics@home just got me project #38.
I'll update all the cached sigs again once challenge has finished as I'm sure a few of us will have upgraded our Acoustics badges.

If you are using the French signature and it craps out, then turn off the Acoustics badges. Mine worked until I hit the Octopus (10M) and then my signature started crashing. After turning off the Acoustics badges then it started working again.

Funny, I was going to DM you as when I tried to download you sig for the weekly ( ish )update of the cached version, your sig kept crashing when I tried to download it from Seb's sig site. Guess that explains it.

If you are desperate for a new 1M project then HERE is a new one. Probably the lowest paying CPU project in all of BOINCdom.

I am genuinely baffled as to why a project would choose to pay so low. Surely they understand that a significant percentage of crunchers come from a 'competitive' background and that, in many cases, it matters a lot to them e.g. cross-project stats or personal goals like this thread.

It costs a project nothing to 'pay' higher credits, right? Or maybe it does ??

I can understand peer-pressure from other projects would bring scorn if a project paid very high amounts but I don't understand why they'd choose to pay very low amounts

Well ODLK pays poorly but IIRC I can do around 250k/day on it. PADLS I could get maybe 130k. A 2990WX @3.3G makes around 32k/day. The WU take that machine around 2.75 hours/WU.

This is a new project and they are still working on getting stuff going but they are releasing stats. The woman who heads up ODLK and ODLK1 is the guys mentor. I'm hoping he increases the credits before I do get desperate and go for another 1M project.

Some of the admins can't see beyond their project and think people will run it because the admin team is excited about the "science" and they think it is the greatest experiment that exists. They don't understand that folks like me won't support the project because the reward for some of us are the credits.

It cost them nothing to award credits. What it does cost them are people (like me) who won't bother helping them. At some point I will take it to 1M but that will be my lifetime limit :lol:
