Today's Numbers: Get 'Em While They're Hot!

Wow.. 9 million is awesome!
BTW, just a heads-up: One of my network switches died, so until I can get it replaced, half my farm is crunching into cache. I won't be home until Sunday either, so seize the chance to score some pie! :D

That's no excuse! Get someone over there with a 100ft cat5 line!:rofl:

I'd send him a switch, or heck the 100ft line, but that wouldn't do much good since he's across the pond. Would take forever to get to him. Not to mention the cost.

We need a definative answer to the "what color is number 9" ... graphemes please report in <j/k>

"many synesthetes themselves do not perceive their synesthetic experiences as a handicap. To the contrary, most report it as a gift—an additional "hidden" sense—something they would not want to miss"

perhaps we could use the most common number/ color scale amongst grapheme perception as our scale. :shrug:

HMM...9 million..What color to use?....:idea:

Have you used magenta yet?

I like magenta. Or as I call it -- pink! :p:

Real nice of you guys, but don't worry - all my machines have at least a 5 day cache, so no work will be lost.

Hell no... my poor eyes :sofa:

There is a pink too. But you can hardly see it. Magenta shows up better on a white background. Pink/magenta is also the official color of breast cancer research.

These are the color choices available.

Wow, last time I checked in here we were slowly grasping our hand up on the ledge of 6 million. :toast: to 9 million.

Why yes! I am very glad you asked, that is my vote for 9 million ppd color. :D

Sure, lets do majenta, besides, we won't be there long..:p:

any bets on how long we sit at 9mil? I got 2 days. Today and tomorrow.

Tricky question ... my guess is that most people who have done the *early join* for the challenge have already signed up. I'll go with one day (tonight's numbers at 9m) and I hope we break through to 10m the night after when the new crunchers' WUs start to flush through validation.

Not that I know of but I'll bite, why do you ask?


(grips hammer firmly)

Today we are averaging around 336,000 BOINC points every six hours. That's about 2.35 WCG million points. If that pace continues, we should hit around 9.4 million.
