How/where/what are these points?
I just stopped doing AI recently and moved resources up to WCG but if it's of any help I can put some back into AI?

A smidgin more for AIS would be very useful.
As for the idea of getting Suduko to number 1, the Russians are 1.3 million ahead of us for FB 2008 purposes and 1.4 ahead in total for Sudoku. We could maybe do it but the effort would be eye-watering and very prolonged.
Lets be proud of the TSBT Sudoku achievments so far
Team 3rd Overall by TC & RAC. & first in UK by a huge margin.
TSBT accounts for 53% of UK credits for the project.
Running second in FB 2008.
TSBT members hold UK individual 1st, 2nd & 6th positions.
utopia-i is the 3rd most prolific Sudoku-ist in the world!

I feel a :wav: coming on.

Thanks for the link utopia-i :)
It's all starting to make a little more sense now
I'll pop another PC onto AI only so we should get a small bump there of a few hundred a day. I was only interested in it in the first place to try and get us into the top 10, and I managed to get myself to #1 in the Scottish BOINC team rankings for AI so I thought the time had come to move on
I'm going to be aiming for top 10 for myself in WCG now I think

Andrew is that a 750 tenere?
haven't seen one of those for years.
I've got an old ZZR 1100 tucked up in the shed.
really need to get back out on it.
Just dragged the RS kicking and screaming into the daylight for the first time in a year, all ready now though for the RSOC show in Aberdeen this Sunday 8)

Megacruncher, I'm looking for a top 50 place within the team within the next month or so, so every PC I can get up and running with BOINC I get connected as soon as possible :)
Just added another one to the croft this morning set on AI only :)
Well spotted FlyingfocRS

My first road bike and it's a fantastic piece of kit :)
That not mine though unfortunately. My Super 10 is just the same, except it's filthy (well used) and slightly different colours.
I'm planning a ride out this summer right around the north of Scotland and possibly some of the islands. The best thing about the bike is it'll cope with offroad tracks well enough so I'm planning on going up to the tops of hills and camping way off the beaten track

Sounds like a good plan.
They were always very capable bikes the Ten's I nearly bought it's rival the Africa Twin but my then Wife couldn't get onto the pillion pad so that was that scuppered LOL
I'd like to change mine for something a bit different.
fancy going a bit retro like a XJR or a ZRX or a big GS.
Before I have the mid life crisis and start thinking that Harleys are nice LOL
