A day in and we are 11th of 12, and are way behind 10th. We have been drifting down the table a wee bit with this project (93rd by TC but 165th by RAC :shock: :( ) so a short blast wouldn't go amiss.

Well I got some WU's but not nearly enough.

I so wish I could pass work between my own crunchers. My worst cruncher takes 90 mins to crunch a single WU and it has a queue of 15 WU's while my fastest cruncher can punch out 2 WU's in under 20 mins and it got next to no work all night. Very frustrating.

Awesome! 8) Lets try for 9th now! I don't think it is possible but then I'd have have said that 10th was a tall order!

You sure are! I'm doing my best to help out but the supply of GPU WUs is a little uneven.

I don't do GPU (really must upgrade that card...) but good luck to everyone who is in this!

We made 9th in the small hours of last night!

AMD users have picked up the pace so it is very unlikely we will catch them for 8th place but lets give it a go!

And a very respectable 9th of 13 we finished. :wav:
Janos was 8th in the individual rankings. :wav:
Importantly, our place in the top 100 for POEM, which was looking a bit shaky has been secured for a few months at least. 8) :D

Back to DistRTGen for me though.
