Another good day for the team. But the winning streak ended.:(
Easynews - 4,217,102
XtremeSystems - 4,181,588
yep, looks like we need to put in more effort tomorrow, gotta pick up the pace a bit to constantly stay ahead of easynews.
I just bought a Dual-Core CPU but it won't be installed until like next week so until then its up to you guys :up:
Its nice to double up! :up:Quote:

Maybe the Federation is fighting back? Do they even have a forum to rally around and discuss?
Only 35,515 points for a gap. That's not huge, it can be done. Quads give what, 15k per day?
Just waiting for Dave to quit whoring down @ the senior center and get the dang quad running :rofl:Quote:

Still good numbers, but...
Easynews - 4,245,291
XtremeSystems - 4,145,335
:mad: Can someone go hack their servers and take them down:rofl:
Yes, we still have some great numbers but we can do more;)
Has Dave got his new system up and running yet? We need it... Now!:D
added a northwood. it takes about 7 hours or so for one result. every lil bit counts right. i want a quad.
No, he is fiddle farting around. :shrug:Quote:

He is building as we speek. Just said the DX is out of the case and ready for some quad goodness :up:
he is tired of listening to us yell at him :D
:ROTF:
Visiting your team for 100k or so :)
May even make top 500 :p: :D
Sorry guys gotta get a new HSF for the e4300.. it keeps overheating.
Close, but we beat them today. That makes four out of six wins this week.:)
XtremeSystems - 4,037,506
Easynews - 4,035,984
Now, thats what I'm talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT JOB TEAM! I'm getting my computers setup and hopefully added tonight:up:
6-day running total
XtremeSystems - 25,713,364
Easynews - 24,765,052
sweet... :D
We beat them again, though barely. So that's five wins in seven days.:)
XtremeSystems - 4,071,863
Easynews - 4,026,548
The team total for the week comes to:
29,785,227
Way to crunch, guys.:up:
The final result is actually a disappointment to me, considering that we threw everything we had at them, including some temporary help.
We have alot more work to do to stay ahead of Easynews after this week.
DDTUNG:cool:
People are still in the process of upgrading, and a few crunchers were down this week for various reasons. If we can stay at the four million daily level in the coming week, then we have a new base from which to move higher.
I hope to add another quad-core. Was going to put it off. But now I'm motivated to build another cruncher.:D
And that's because I dropped 60K today..:up:Quote:

R U shetting me??? A team of 720 according to WCG taking out sleezy news on a 4mil a day basis. I know you are competitive but dam Victor :shakes: You are the god of XS DC but this is a put down IMO. There is more to come :up:Quote:

We did not beat Easynews today. But I believe 4.1 million is the highest we've ever done on a Sunday. Keep up the good work.
Easynews - 4,237,251
XtremeSystems - 4,136,314
P.S. I will be building another quad-core system in the coming week.
Just saw, Mine is still building up.46K today..I got another 5000 to add in a few days..Quote:

We will get them and on a regular basis..
Also keep in mind that mike047 left to help the PC Review crew this am..thats 100K right there so don't anyone be discouraged.:up:
On a side note, our team has passed 1,000 years of run time.
dam we got beat by 100k.
Wow! in one year and a month..Impressive..says we've got close to 1,000 cores on this..Am I correct or is my math wrong..:up:Quote:

Good point. Had 65 guys when we started..Maybe 400 cores..Quote:

One thing to note about Easynews. Their daily point production has remained fairly steady the past several weeks. In other words, they are on cruise control. It's really up to us to shift into a higher gear.Quote:

Tuesday results
Easynews - 4,163,260
XtremeSystems - 4,104,040
Not looking good for this week.
Not sure I would say that. We're still averaging over four million a day. Also keep in mind that Easynews has more than 5700 members who have a financial incentive to crunch.
Still have to add 2 Q66's. Unfortunately, right now I'm praying for a quick merciful death. Came down with a bad sinus infection, which has now morphed into a case of strep/tonsilitis. Cant talk, swallow or anything (feels like I just tried to swallow a broken coke bottle), just trying to keep the fever under control with big a$$ horsepills of Amox, and a huge dose of prednesone, tyleneol. Uggghhhh.
-SS
ugrrr, sorry to hear SS. Get well soon :up: .. we need you to be healthy to run down easynews :DQuote:

What goes up, must come down.
And please don't be naugthy.
"(mike, you take the macs,I'll take the quads..lolololol)"
And.....
since, according to Dave, Clovers "aren't quads", I'll take those.
Get better quick, Carl! Doesn't sound like fun.
Thanks guys! It would seem that it just wasnt my time to go. The antibiotics and roids are doing their work and I'm feeling somewhat human again. Was able to get a little food and water down last night, albeit still with difficulty, but at least I wasnt writhing around on the floor cryin for "momma!".
Back to bed...:)
-SS
Good to hear you're feeling better.:)
Ah shucks, I'll have to make do with the new MINI that I got today:cool:Quote:

For strep, you should DEMAND hydrocodone, codeine at the very least. Strep is really awful and the drugs take at least a couple days to kick in. You need something to keep the pain under control. But the DEA has doctors quaking in their boots so if you have anything less serious than multiple compound fractures, all you get is Tylenol or Advil - what bullsh**.Quote:

It's been snowing up in the mountains where he lives. I'm sure that doesn't help. He just needs plenty of rest.
Ahh, Mike the Dark Side has you now :up: What one did you get?Quote:

Mike, did you get the MINI S? I had a 2002 S that I modified to 220 horses and raced at the Zhuhai track in southern China. Held the course record for MINIs at 2:00, when stock Lotus Elise does 2:03. It was fun tailgating a few Ferraris on a track date. Unfortunately the Mrs won't allow me to race anymore so it is now retired. I hope you enjoy the car.
DDTUNG:cool:
PS Mike I hope you are not talking about the Mac MINI.:D
I think he is..Mike doesn't strike me as a mini driver..Quote:

Was almost as bad as the 68 lambo Muira S I barely fit into..:rolleyes:
Well, I was feelin better yet till I saw todays totals. :( Guess I better get those quads into action.
-SS
We're looking to be 100-150K short per day..
OK, time to restart the 19 quads to beat Easynews thread..:D
SS, I hope that you are feeling better. And as usual my recommendation is to take two quads and call me in the morning. :up:
Be sick on your own time XS WCG slave :cord: get to building ;)Quote:

Don't worry about Easynews for now. We will get them in the end.;) Just concentrate on getting well.Quote:

I think Ive definitely turned the corner. Tomorrow I'll be a quad-building fool on steroids! :ROTF:
-SS
I agree, some of us are working on the new machines. Some are upgrading OS, cpu etc .. so give it a little time and they'll go down for good :DQuote:

I think they also added some power
Their numbers have been fairly steady the past couple of weeks. If we can boost our average to 4.3 million or higher, they will be toast.
This watching them "just" outdo us daily is starting to piss me off.
Like a tic thats embedded in the skin that you want to take a blowtorch to!:(
Calm down Old Man :hehe: Not a race remember! Just look at my sig :D 4 months to gain control :up:Quote:

I'm sure we'll get them. Of course it may take about 20 years to pass their overall points, but we may get a good boost with octo cores next year....;)
Keep on crunching,:up:
Bob
Yes, we had some guys come for the first week of Oct in response to DDT's thread for gearing up for Oct1..Quote:

That's ok too.
We'll thank them for what they did and continue on in the battle.
There's some more of those 4 cored beasts coming next week and some of them look a little different than we're used to..
Maybe even some that..oops....:wasntme:
Oh Bob: Not going to take 20 years..2 possibly but between 1-2 is more likely!:D
I will have another cruncher online either late today or tomorrow. The wiring is taking a little longer than I thought.:D
High resolution photo
im in it for the haul. got my issues fixed by using the 6.1.0 version.
Good one. We can use another..P4-2000 right?:DQuote:

You had to see the look on his face when he saw the mess.
Looked at him, said One step at a time and we'll get it done.
Talk about "motivating the troops"
I was still trying to figure out where the hell to start!:shrug:
I am back up and running, 1 q6600 in the media center throwing out @ 3.0ghz
Just got my Striker rig back up and going Q6600 @ 3.7, running low 40's crunching, so some headroom left, will play more when I have time, maybe have a 4ghz, if I am to be so lucky.
Will grab a pci vid card and a cooler off ebay or somewhere and get my E6600 up and going in the coming weeks, will have 20 glorious days off after the 25th, so have some good time to play.
That's the wiring for the BlueGene/L supercomputer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The full system has more than 65,000 dual-processor compute nodes.Quote:

I think this is easily do-able as we grow the team. I also think we are more likely to adopt new hardware than EN. That should help.Quote:

The left side are all my original WC machines. I've been able to air cool the G0s in the middle and will air cool the future right rack. When Octos come out, if they are hot, they will go in the left and replace the B3s I'm running there.
My current actual racks are arranged a bit different than this. I will be re-racking soon to make it look like this. I've had a bit of shuffling to figure out the best design for my use.
Regards,
Bob
wow, nice RACK! :D
btw statistics: january 1st team ouput at 1.2 million, 5 months later broken 2 million, and now 5 months even later broken 4 million daily...
anyone predicting 6 million by mars ´08?
if only a certain manufacturer would release some 7xx series boards, then id have a new rig to add :)
Now that is the first time that I have heard that said to a man. :ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF:Quote:

It would be really nice if there was a GPU client added for this. With all the gamers around here, that's some huge points.
So close...
Easynews - 4,067,789
XtremeSystems - 4,050,712
Damn, almost :(
I had my biggest day yet, over 45,000. Looks like I finally got some validated results from the quad.
Yea, and today I feel responsible. I had a bad day and could have done another 16K myself. Been working on getting this all set up.
Excuse me while I go kick my own butt..:(
damm, I had one error on one of my rigs. It ran for 21hrs (wtf) .. and finally it just error out .. been at work the whole day so wifey didn't know what to do. Lost 1 core for almost a day. My son was prolly gaming the whole day .. his rig output is also way down today.
UPS tracking shows two of my Q6700 G0s have cleared customs and will be delivered my Monday morning. They will both go online on Monday.
DDTUNG:cool:
got my quad from direction (L727A921). hopefully it will be up next week.
