Boincstats Gerasim challenge 03/03 - 10/03

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 ;-)

We seem to have inadvertently got involved with this challenge :)

Holding our own in third place with no chance of catching the top two.

Australia in fourth *might* be a concern but we're easing away from them slowly.

More for information rather than anything else.

Hi Mark

UBT is automatically enrolled into every BOINCstats challenge....so, one just needs to keep an eye on this page:

https://www.boincstats.com/stats/challe ... m/overview

and see which one takes your fancy?

There's a TN-Grid Challenge taking place from 16th-23rd March which might interest some ;-)

regards
Tim

Woohoo! 3rd is pretty great, particularly an accidental 3rd :)

I will be doing the TN-Grid challenge if anyone else wants to join on that. TN-Grid is very easy to run, lightweight, and fine on either Linux or Windows.

QuChem, on the other hand ...

I was running Gerasim for Formula Boinc anyway, nice to see it was doubly worthwhile :)

I'll give TN-Grid a go after the first Formula Boinc sprint, seems someone's pinched my number one spot :lol:

(And then QuChem :twisted: )

Yes, well, I’ve been punching at TN for quite a while now.

It looks like I’m #7 in the world on QuChem for what it’s worth ...I am still figuring out the best crunching setup. Definitely not enjoying the ‘long’ jobs, so am trying without those.

Russias top man gave up trying to get them past TSBT and joined Crystal Dream who then shot past us, Bryan decided to give Australia a boost for a day or two and they also passed us, finished a respectable fifth with almost five times the total of the sixth place team.
