Anyone On Distributed.net?

Post by UBT - Chris »

Hi team,
I was just wondering if anybody actually uses Distributed.net from UBT anymore?

I have recently started, but there is no team called UK BOINC Team, so I was wondering if anyone used it.
'UBT - Chris' is my old name - I now crunch as 'CaffeinatedSloth' but I'm still 100% UBT :D

Hi Chris,

I'm not 100% sure but I think this has something to do with:

http://www.yoyo.rechenkraft.net//index_en.html

which IS a BOINC project, called "yoyo".

By all means set up a team - I tried a while back, and it wouldn't let me - as the team name I chose wasn't "unique" enough !!

EDIT: If I'd looked hard enough through this forum, I'd have found out that a Team WAS set up many moons ago...it's here:

regards
Tim

Hey, Mark - it isn't BOINC, but it is similar, and I have a feeling that you may be right, Tim - it has the same cow logo, and I had the same problem, but I may just do the work for it without a team.

Distributed.net is dying slowly over the time.
Never really met anyone who actually actively running it.
