Easy - I never said we are the 1st team in any project - but, if you re-read my phrase, then it should be taken this way:

Of all the UK teams (not including International or any other country of course) that crunch for EVERY BOINC project (hence not including those that only crunch for say two/three projects), then we've got most credits....!

Simple really.

But worded in a way that can come across as misleading :lol:  :lol:

Am happy to change it. Always keen to ensure that anything I "say" doesn't have too ambiguous a meaning.....


On the other hand, sometimes you need something "catchy" that draws people in - you know, like the "big caption" and then you see the small print underneath....!

Either way, we  do need to do more to self-pomote ouselves and the fact is that we'll only get bigger and better if we make sure people hear the message...! (PS Been working in marketing for nigh on 30 years, so am quite used to making a pig's ear sound like a silk purse....no humans or animals were hurt during the formation and execution of that last paragraph... :) )
