Can I confirm that we are taking part in this? I think we get entered automatically if we crunch. But it would be nice to do better than our usual rather modest performance. And maybe advance our FB Marathon prospects. No need to bunker.

Definitely in it to win it. https://tsbt.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=22419

I tried the cpu app and 24hrs per wu would suggest it is a waste of time.

I wont be turning in any wu for 24hrs though, in case pg is also the sprint. I am staying on pg even if sprint is a gpu project as I have high hopes

Time to set nomorework - empty caches as only WU downloaded AFTER 2200 UTC will count

The Sprint won't be known for another 24hrs. Hoping it is either PrimeGrid or a CPU project

Thanks guys. I did have more than a little help so a big shout-out to bluestang, Bryan, scole and SolidAir79 who contributed points, expertise or both.

I don't think anyone expected a 65M bunker drop with 2-1/2hrs to go

Well done David! You were in it & you won it!
It's a little disappointing that CNT out-did us & so our FB prospects for Primegrid haven't improved at all. But neither have they been harmed. Fourth is ours for the taking & we might yet creep up on the Czechs.
