2014 Crunchathons
Posted: Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:00 pm
Hi all,
I'd like to plan ahead and consider doing some Crunchathons during 2014....maybe 3 or 4 - spread more or less equally throughout the year.
As in previous times, it'd be nice to have a poll as to which projects should be supported, based on your suggestions.....
So, for now, let's say we have a Crunchathon throughout February - so the next step is easy....suggest a suitable project that we can support.
The main considerations are that:
- it should have plenty of relatively short duration WU's.
- WU's should be easily crunched on even modest hardware
- there's a good motive as to why the project is "worthy" of our support.
So, please make your suggestions before (say) Wednesday 15th January 2014.
EDIT: There is ANOTHER alternative - and that is that I register the team on any/all BOINCstats challenges....
The website showing them is here:
http://boincstats.com/en/stats/challenge/team/overview
So, we could just get involved with their challenges and see how we do against other teams.
Let me know what you all think please.
regards
Tim
