Back to the Future Challenge from Prime Grid

This section is where you can post topics related to Challenges from other websites, such as Formula-BOINC, SETI-Germany and BOINCstats, as well as project challenges such as from WCG, PrimeGrid et al.

As a Team, we really want to engage as many team members with these challenges, as this gives us a great way of attracting more members to our Team...plus we get to show our strengths as a Team by (hopefully) doing well in each one.

PS: I have moved lots of topics into this section where they are relevant...as you can see, we've always been happy to take part in Challenges...and long may that continue ;-)

Thanks for the welcome.

I've got another three finishing in a couple of hours so that should improve the position a bit anyway.

I'm here as well but a bit behind as I'm finishing off some IBERCIVIS (bit of bad timing as I might have got in front of Ram Raider!)

We can't see that info, only you can. As it's part of your account.
However lemme guess all you can see are the sieve workunits listed and not the LLR ones?

Keep clicking like a loony through the pages and you will find them.
Sieve workunits have a lower id than LLR, so they always get listed 1st.

If that not what puzzling you, please fill in reply on back of envelope (with £50 inside and post to me....)

We're well past the half way mark now and, hopefully, looking at a fifteenth or sixteenth place finish  8)

Should anyone new feel like lending a hand then there is still time to add a few results to the teams total ....

Finally cleared everything else and just doing PG now .. although with WUs taking just over a day each (at least it's less than the 52 hours estimated!) I may not get many done before the challenge finishes!

Fifteenth then - and looks like we are going to go up to seventh in the overall stats.  Well done to all who contributed.

I had one task finish less than 5 minutes after the deadline!!!  I'm really glad it didn't make any difference in the end  :roll:
