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

[D_A]

Point returns vary by the day for a number of reasons. A number of universities and colleges run systems on the grid but many of those are only during the academic year, also many students run machines in their dorms but only while they are living on campus. So too many businesses run machines on the grid but those machines are only on during the working week. Combine those and you will see an overall increase in pending units on weekends and outside the school year and surges in returns when those machines come back online to complete units that are cached but not completed yet and when students get their "free" power back and ramp up their farms.

Weekend numbers are always lower also, I think the validation servers only validate 2x per day on the weekends and 4x on the week days or something like that :dunno:

Okay. Okay. If you guys say so. I must be suffering from F@H/WCG culture shock! One would think those factors would have affected F@H production but I never saw them. Grasshopper is still learning.

F@Hades doesn't use a validation system as far as I know. Each unit is worth x points on successful return and that's it. Honestly, I like part of that system for a few reasons but it's not how WCG works.

Individual numbers fluctuate and that fluctuates the team numbers. We just like cheerleading the numbers really.

I'll take credit for a couple of 100K worth of the recent boost.
My DDDT2 PVs are finally getting released from jail. I'm enjoying the high tide while it lasts.

Good Weekend guys and gals!!
I'm bummed cuz i'm trying to get just one 100K day and just missed it yesterday with 99,311
then today was terrible at only 84K.
here's hoping to a huge day tomorrow (no gaming for me today )

[=[PULSAR]=]

Hey EVERYONE!!! I'm back well kind of, plugging away with my i5 for right now crunching when I'm not using it. Hopefully though the SR2 will be back and plugging away really soon

[shoota]

Woohoo!

Want to explain my low WCG output.
I'm in the hospital since a week with a collapsed lung and my dad turned off 2 crunchers at my place.
He knows I'm into WCG and all , but he doesn't understand why the computers should be running when I'm not there. Really didn't want to argue with him.

Luckily my 2 other systems aren't attached to a screen and are still running fine.
He didn't want to shut these down the quick & dirty way

I try to look at it in a positive way ... only consuming 391w at the moment

You worry about getting better. The points will look after themselves.

Wait, collapsed lung? A Pneumothorax? That's pretty Ironic since I've been in and out of hospital this week with a collapsed lung too! Here's wishing you have a speedy recovery.
