And me my 33rd

DHEP is my 34th

How's Scole doing? Must be past 40 by now...

Universe, a few days ago was my 32nd (if we include Bitcoin).
I’ve a few fairly close which I must push over the line.
scole is having a rest. Hopefully he’ll be back soon.

Numberfields makes it 33 for me. :)

I'm on 37 now.

I recently got a new one too - DBN Upper Bound

Another 34th for me: WEP-M+2, after DHEP got smashed back into the 700-thousand

LHC & Acoustics@Home bring me up to 35!

WTG everyone, those million projects are hard to come by!

I’ll wait until FB 2019 before bagging any more.

YAFU became my 36th project to pass the million mark, making me jump from 73th to 66th position boinc-wide -my 42 subprojects that passed the million mark rate higher though (13th)

Still 37 projects, 62nd position for me.

There is a new project. BRAINSTORM

You're beating me ? Damn you and those thread rippers . Good to hear from you boss.

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.

TN-Grid makes it 39 one million+ projects for me!

Congrats Mega! Almost to the new decade.

Well done. Seems the mega cores on a threadripper are tearing through those cpu projects.

Yup!
And now WEP-M+2 Project makes 42!
Finally we know what the ultimate question is!

nice one

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.

How low they pay and how fast are the WUs?

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

That's the one ... Natalia or whatever

Not my next target, I think!

You're running out of choices!

Yafu is up next. Then we'll see. I just wish I could recover my Gerasim account.

What's the issue?

I've forgotten my password & the usual I Forgot my Password link doesn't seem to work. Probably my best bet is to PM the project admin.

YAFU is #43!
I must get in touch with the Gerasim admins.
WUProp might take some time!

Run multiple instances of BOINC with WuProp on each one.

Yes I must try the multiple client thing.

I just got a new one: PRIVATE GFN SERVER.

It has been around for years but just started exporting stats

And NO, I don't know the invite code.

Well I guessed PrimeGrid & that worked.
Anyhoo I've set up a TSBT team for it.

A mind reader you are

I got a new one: Tomas Brada Experimental Grid aka Pseudo-Associative DLS Project

From a couple of posts on their forums it appears it may be ending soon. It is associated with ODLK and ODLK1.

ODLK1/Latin Squares is #42!

I only have 23 projects with over 1 million credits.):
