Seems the Linux app is broken, constant no heartbeat errors

Alez · Post by **Alez** » Fri Sep 13, 2013 12:53 am

and now we are probably about to be bounced by boinc stats into 10th place before we can catch Korea. At least the 99th place has been arrested and we are traveling back up the table.

We will avoid relegation to the 2nd hundred.
We will not hold off Boinvstats- they are doing rather well! :)
We will beat the Koreans.
We might beat AMD Users.
I will finish foremost among TSBT crunchers or pay a Â£20 Amazon voucher to anyone in the team who finishes above me! C'mon if you think you"re hard enough.

BTW you're not.

Fighting talk!

Fighting talk indeed

Normally that would be a red rag to a bull.....but since they have no working Linux app, half my crunchers are unavailable so someone else will have to take up the baton..... Skywalker get cracking

mind you half way in and I'm still in front :bootyshake:
away to head offshore, that will give you your chance

Calling me out eh?

I might be able to spare a few more cores this way.

Be careful what you wish for ....

Just found AVG halting the download of LHC units. Been nothing running for some time so I don't think I'm going to catch up.

Post by **Megacruncher** » Fri Sep 13, 2013 11:14 pm

Looks like I'm going to have it all my own way then!

We've overtaken the Koreans to reclaim 9th. I'm not sure we will rise much further in the challenge

but we will rise to 93rd or 94th in the world before this is done. Which will keep us safe for a wee while.

Post by **Megacruncher** » Sat Sep 14, 2013 7:55 pm

Up to 93rd now. And we are gaining on AMD users! Just 9K in it now!

Post by **Megacruncher** » Sun Sep 15, 2013 11:59 pm

92ndby TC ie safe

Well ahead of AMD users in 8th for the comp!

I'm out in front but Skywalker is making sure I don't get out of sight. 8)

If I can get my head above water ( not literally, the rig is still afloat :) ), then time for some updates.
TSBT finished a very respectable 8 from 13 after a hard fight to get that high.
Individually :

Mega " fighting talk" cruncher TSBT 16th
Skywalker TSBT aka "could have been a contender " 21st
alez " linux denied " evo1 35th
Paul " almost made 3rd " of TSBT 40th
Radio 220th
Snowdog of The Scottish Boinc Team 229th
KaizenMike 238th
Mark 358th
Jim 362nd
Sharron Douglas 434th
Buster Gunn 560th
albagael 596th

That must be somewhat of a relief in your line of work!

Even after sabotaging the linux work I couldn't make top 3

And more importantly - Good effort everyone

was looking a bit dodgy at the start and I ran out of work towards the end too!

Post by **Megacruncher** » Tue Sep 17, 2013 7:54 pm

And we rose from a precarious 99th in the rankings to a fairly safe 90th!

I think I just pee'd a little laughing so hard.
