Unless you want the less common ones
Almost went blind trying to read that!:rofl:Quote:

The grey background whilst kinder on the eyes does limit what works with colors though. I guess you've been around long enough not to comment on the colours/colors sp. too but I usually stick with what I was taught over here

Got to toss this in, not even a full 24 hour day on the EVGA SR2 rig:
Statistics
Date... Total Run Time(y:d:h:m:s)..... Points Generated Results Returned
4/8/10..... 0:023:04:59:35...................... 100,672............. 311
The killer to me is the 311 results returned. Running HCC and doing a WU in app 1 hour 40 mins, 24 at a time
I think your monster machine has inspired people to squeeze a little bit more work out. I can't think of any other reason since last month we were doing a million points less per day. Go team! :up:
XtremeSystems 7,128,842 :cool:
Damn I am really liking this purple run we are having. Way to go everyone! :up:
:up:Very nice, but enough of this piddly Purple stuff, time to move up!:up:Quote:

That would be me I was gone all day and windows locked up :O hasn't been crunching since about 1pm.
and me my pc was down for some time cause i needed to make my room empty, iam making a new desk :) its 3.20 in length and its 0.80 deep so a nice big desk :) only need to coat it then iam done :)
What color is 8 million? :DQuote:

Geez, makes me feel liek a slacker only contributing like 1000 points a day heh.
If it wasn't for so many people contributing 1000 a day, the score wouldn't even be close to 7 mil.
True dat. The "pie gang" only does around 2-2,5 million a day, the other 200 active crunchers make for the main production.
Amen bro..:up:Quote:

Weeeeeeeee!! :yepp:
I can't wait to see our numbers over the next few days, with the influx of all the new blood we might be at 8mil faster than I thought possible.
Fixed..:p:Quote:

Great work everyone :toast:
I bet we start to see some nice increases tomorrow as results start to get validated from all our new friends.
:welcome: to all of you :clap:
hot damn!
Good job newbies, keep going! :p:
wow! 286 users returning work! :rocker:
Where does one go to see this?Quote:

Apologies if this is a dumb question but I'm a complete newbie to crunching :)
here you go :
https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.or...do?sort=points
Grazi.
Looks like we have a bit of work if we're to catch that Japanese team :shocked:
I'll load up the Clarkdale HTPC as well which just sleeps 99.9% of its life anyway.
Beating Team2CH was never our goal , they're just too big (11,822 members :eek:)
Doing better than Easynews was our goal.
Trust me , this looked like an impossible task 2 years ago.
Now we're there ! :D
It will only get better.:D
XtremeSystems 7,888,620
Thanks to all our new friends (some we already know well) we have posted up seriously good numbers ... this places us number two for the day :up:
I am sure we will break 8m tomorrow (it will be a team best ever score) with lots more to come during our "Super Computer" challenge.
XtremeSystems rocks. Thanks to everyone who pulled this challenge together, all our fantastic crunchers, seasoned veteran and n00bs alike. I would be remiss if I did not give a shout out to DDTung ... the super grand daddy of all crunching. Finally I feel a great need make sure we do not forget special recognition to Fugger for providing us with this fantastic playground we all get to meet in.
I am humbled by you all :worship:
(8m is green correct?)
Wow to think that when I joined the team 6mil was a good day and here we are about to top 8mil. :up:
Way to go team. Thanks to all the new people. Let's keep it up.
That's right.
I don't think I have ever seen you grin as much as these past few days :D :up:Quote:

Well 80% of the work I handed back over the last 24 hours is still "pending validation" what is the usual delay for this?
Also I noticed that almost all of my validated work units are being seriously marked down ie for one unit: points claimed 273 points granted 197....
Is this normal?
Answers on a postcard :D
ps. should get another 8 cores eating work tomorrow :)
Good job, dude!:up: Keep up the good work there.Quote:

Tonight I'm going to bust out the Pentium Pro 180 for giggles.
Looks like the XS train is pulling out the station and building up steam... :up: :clap:
Yup and I have my crunch farm growing and growing.... :-)
Gazing into my crystal ball, I see the number EIGHT today.
http://go2.wordpress.com/?id=725X134...rystal-ball%2F
And the number 9 should appear quite fastly i think
People on the other teams are probably looking at the stats and thinking "W.........T..............F..........?"
At 18:00 UTC today BOINStats showed us at 8.2 m for the previous 24 hours so I think by the time WCG rolls the stats tonight (it usually finishes posting about 1:00 - 1:30 UTC) we will be at least that high and likely quite a bit more :clap:
As for them saying WTF ... likely not so much. While we produce a lot with a comparatively small number of PCs our contribution is still only in the single digit percentage of the whole.
I took a look at IBM stats a little closer and for those of us thinking we are already kicking their ascii, think again. They have about 100 different teams worldwide and pull more RAC and total points than we do so lets get the final numbers straight before we start throwing that in their faces :rofl:
Cheers to IBM for providing and running the data center, techs to keep it all running smooth and stable, and their actual crunching contributions :up:
Yes, it's true that IBM could beat us if they combined all their teams into one. But think about this. A giant corporation vs. a group of enthusiasts who buy their own hardware. Most of the corporate and educational teams are using company-bought or university-bought hardware.
also a point to make you you crazed overclockers.
My SR2 rig runs fine at 4152..
Last night I cranked it up to 4300+ before I went to bed.
Woke up to a bluescreen..Cost me 40,000 points today..
It's a distance race, not a sprint and sometimes a little lower clock is the best way to go.
Yep. That's why I ran my Q6600 at 3.2GHz. Could it go higher? Sure... but it took a little more tweaking at 3.4GHz+ (never got higher than that, I suck lol) but at 3.2GHz it was more stable than a rock.Quote:

How about Red to honor our team Captain and newest Admin Sierra_Bound!
That. Is. Awesome.
:up::up::up::up::up::up::up::up: Dave did you color the monitor? :ROTF: Damn I think thats the highest? :shrug:Quote:

Great job everyone. And a special thanks to all the new team members. Without your help, we wouldn't have achieved this.
Woohoo!
I wonder what tomorrow will bring ? :D
12 cores / 16 threads say higher ;)
This is nuts, but I'm not complaining! Thanks again to all of the new team members!
Absolutely and shows what one individual can do to make a difference!Quote:

Red would be good for 10 mil. I was truly shocked by today's number. I was expecting maybe 8.1 to get home and see 8.4 mil just wow. And with out Daves Sr2. Awesome job every one lets hit 10 mil before the first! :up: :YIPPIE::toast::rocker::toast:
We already used red for 5/6 mil :(
No, I said I lost 40,000 when it bluescreened, still got 60K from it today!:DQuote:

We used blue for 6mil? And we could just use red every 5 mil :D so 15mil would be red and so would 20.
How about RAINBOW darlings it's FABULOUS!
Can I just kill you now and get it over with?:rofl:Quote:

I've always liked graphs that slope upwards.:D Results returned are way up, partly because the HCC work units are shorter now and many here are crunching that project.
That looks good :), and that's partly right. I guess the other part is because some new people are warming up for 1. May.Quote:

Thats nuckin futs! I will have 3 more PC's up and running this weekend so I will have 7 total going :cool: I want to see us hit 10 mil!
Fixed!:DQuote:

Mine's sort of at my limit in terms of temperature, 72°C hottest core @ 3.9 GHz
That is the plan and hope, just takes maybe 30-40,000 people from Xs to make it happen.Quote:

Unleash the beast!:up:
WCG manager estimates 56 hours for my PPro's first WU. Does that even meet the general deadline?
Most WCG subproject WUs have a 10 day deadline, I think HCMD2 may have been upped to 14 days so you should be fine.
At 18:00 UTC today BOINStats showed us at 9.01 m for the previous 24 hours so I think by the time WCG rolls the stats tonight (it usually finishes posting about 1:00 - 1:30 UTC) we will be at least that high and likely a bit more. We need a definative answer to the "what color is number 9" ... graphemes please report in <j/k>
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesth...-simner2005-20
"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:
Is there anyway to view our team stats by member? By that I mean can we see a list of members and see how we rank amongst ourselves? Maybe get a little competition going. ; )
