According to the last update, it seems there's only ~14 days of work remaining for the GO Fight Against Malaria project.
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/fo...d_thread,35145
So after HPF2 and GFAM finish up shortly we will have only 4 fulltime project lefts on WCG:
DSFL - 160 days left
CEP2 - 373 days left
FAAH - 526 days left
SN2S - 677 days left
And I imagine those days will go quickly as people are funneled into these projects.
Crap that went down fast!
There was a jump here was there not? Cuz I thought I had timed this right... but I'm about 4 years short of my goal...
Edit: and yeah - they better get some new projects fast! Cuz we're crunching through them fast!
Dont like, i have

GO Fight Against Malaria 1,805,510 2,186 1:087:20:48:06
So i wont make it to 2yr badge... :( With my 12c opteron i'll get to 1yr255days. Anyone care to help me with this?
I would post your weak key so we can help out when possible.
Few days ago, it was ~90 days estimated, so I felt there's no need to hurry to get sapphire. Even though I switched all my CPUs to GFAM, I'll probably miss that badge too :(

Good luck..:)
Probably can't help until Sunday/Monday.
Someone want to start a thread showing who wants help, how much help, and who is offering/already on the case for both projects finishing soon?
Also, a how to reminder on how to use a weak key ;)
I would remind folks of this thread:

Dang I have 120 days left, going to miss sapphire by about 7 days :(
289862_509421b71ad9a467e3e576977ff81f55 if anyone can help.
jeanguy2: done :)

I should have a quad core Linux box available to help out after 9pm EST today. However I could use some guidance in how to use someone else's weak key.

-save the file as : account_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml
-open BOINC manager and remove WCG from the projects tab (detach from WCG).
-close BOINC manager and make sure anything BOINC related is shut down (look in task manager)
-go to the BOINC data folder and make sure the old account_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml file is gone.
-paste the new account_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml file from above into the data folder.
-restart BOINC. Look in the project tab and make sure BOINC is now showing the new account name.
Notes:
1- Whatever you have named your device is what will show up on the WCG account holder you're helping. It will use his/her WCG "Default" device profile so make sure the helpee has set it up has needed.
2- To reverse the process, you simply detach from WCG(this will delete the custom .xml file you put in the BOINC data file) and then re-attach using your WCG username and password.
3- Adjust the cache on the helping crunching device to meet the targeted goal as recommended by the person you're helping.
im at Total Run Time (y:d:h:m:s) 1:103:13:00:42 - which means with my current 12c opteron and 2c/4t x220 laptop - i'll be missing about 103 days of CPU time - so 10 cores for 10 days minimum needed :(
Don't forget, that you can buffer a few more days in advance.
Just switched a Q6600 @ 3.6 GHz from my HPF2 to your account. Cache is set to .1 min + 8.00 max additional. So there is 4 cores for you!Quote:

at the moment im running 24h cache on my personal crunchers, if I get past 2y will switch over all my crunchers to whoever needs them.
Saw it, thanks!Quote:

Thanks for the primer, jeanguy. It pretty much worked right away, except I forgot to change my box to Default. Once I did that and rebooted it worked like a charm.
Ok Anubis, I have all 4 cores of my Q9550 Linux Mint 14 box crunching away for you.
I will have another 2 boxes/8 cores available for GFAM or HPF2 probably Monday or Tuesday. Sing out if you need help, XS'ers!
I have under my account
*12c opteron 2419
*2c/4t x220 i5
*gf's 2c/4t i3
*yojimbo197 4c q9550
*bluestangs 4c q6600
thats 28threads - so i should be OK :)
edit: since the WUs are being eaten up faster then any help is still appriciated!
