I had a wee bunker drop https://boincstats.com/en/stats/175/use ... B%5D=21251 so I am hopeful that it'll be enough to get me 6th place before the end of the Challenge. Depends if the other guys have anything left in the tank I guess (or are remotely bothered ). Didn't want to leave it any longer as I now have 4500 WU in pending

Thanks for that Pete - feedback of any kind is greatly appreciated and good feedback is especially nice to hear
I'm glad you are liking the stats updates, I well-remember how confused I was by it all when I started competing at the end of last year. Hopefully these posts will clear the muddy waters a little for others

Thanks for that Pete - it did actually happen a few days back; hopefully, I'll be able to support the other guys as a lot of admin work is, by nature, largely unseen.
I've never run a real Marathon (detested running all my life except when there was a soccer ball to chase), but reckon you can only ever beat the guy who is immediately in front of you. A team marathon is no different, no point me looking at what Mumps can do - the guy in front of me is the only one who mattersCruncher Pete wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 7:06 am creeping up the ladder and fighting those russcies and yanks

Mumps is fortunate enough to work for a company that allows him to host all the spare equipment he can scrounge up and run it at their offices. They even allow him to use old company equipment for a bit after it's been swapped out.
Use those extra clients to load up on enough WU to last until the end of the challenge.

Very fortunate pal, indeed.
#86 Re: 13/2 - 20/2 Acoustic@Home challenge
He's toast, just keep the pedal down!
Mumps works for a database company that also rents out server space. They have systems that range from older servers to the latest and greatest. As they retire equipment, and they still have the same type of server still active on-line, then they keep some of them as spares. They keep some of the spares powered up and operating in case they have a failure on one of the on-line systems they know the replacement is good. Due to licensing stuff (Microsoft/Hyper V, etc) you can't just throw in a new server ... it is easier and cheaper just to stick in the same type machine. So Mumps gets to keep those machines running and "stress" testing them

David was made an admin by myself a couple of weeks ago. Even if I am not posting, I usually check the site most days and do hours of stuff in the background. If you don't notice then I guess I am doing my job correctly I've spent days getting the board e-mail system functional again just as a small example with a great deal of help from David.Cruncher Pete wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 7:24 am To be honest David, I would recommend an Admin position for you for currently we have two Admins and for RL reasons they have not been very active. I admire your enthusiasm and commitment to TSBT. I hope you will keep that commitment and don't follow me and go on walkabout, the term we use in Australia for disappearing for awhile to perhaps recharge the system.
David has brought a huge amount of work to the team in a very small timeframe. His WCG stats site and the marathon stats are just some of what he has been up to. I'm sure there will be more deserved praise as further work is unveiled.
His enthusiasm and commitment is very much appreciated.

Congratulation to all of you, guys. I am happy to see we pulled second, considering Mumps effect
PS
Will any pending tasks count towards the final score?
#97 Re: 13/2 - 20/2 Acoustic@Home challenge
No. Once competition is complete , that's all folks.
They will however continue to count towards your individual, team and Formula BOINC scores.
I'll post the final update once I'm finished messing with the WCG forum.

#99 Re: 13/2 - 20/2 Acoustic@Home challenge
Considering MUMPS could go full on nuclear and outcrunch us altogether, I think 7 of us in 2nd position is a team effort to be proud of. It also puts this project safe in 1st place on the FB comp for quite a while. We beat many, much bigger teams than ourselves through team work where ever point counts.
I'd love more members of the team to take part, but we 7 can hold our heads up high.
Well done all.
