The UBT uFluids team were already the #1 team in the UK before I joined, and we are currently at 17th position in the world, not at all bad with only 39 members. We are not in any danger of losing our #1 UK slot, but the OT stats do not look good in the world rankings, and we will lose the 17th position within days.
As uFluids cheerleader I am asking for your support for this project. If just a few more UBT members could spare a fraction of their crunching time to us, I believe we could rise up in the world rankings quite easily. Thank you in anticipation for your support.

Kindest regards,

Rick.

Must admit it's a long time since I did any of these! So, as soon as my SAPD WU is finished, I'll do a few days of these.

[edit] Then I saw the SAPD thread! Suppose I'll have to do both then!

Being trying to download some WU's - none yet and, according to the site, there aren't any to send!

The`re a bit hit & miss at the moment. We`ll probably get some down later today.

Just noticed you`ve broken the 100,000 credit barrier Mike. Congratulations!
Hope to do it myself in a couple of years! :wav:

Just joined up. Got some WUs straight away. Have to wait till scheduler lets them get a look-in though.

Posted: **Sun Sep 17, 2006 2:26 am**

I'll turn up uFluids Resource share a bit

Posted: **Sun Sep 17, 2006 9:32 am**

Thought the credits were a bit mean for this until I worked it out.

Very rough estimate of 250credits/24 hours on this machine which is actually a little bit more generous than SETI! (they're around 210credits/24 hours).

Many thanks to all UBT members who responded to my "call to arms". Perhaps we might be able to stop the rot. :thumbright:

Responded to your call to arms and just joined using 50% resource share on my laptop.

Yes - A guy called Samppa has just joined (making a total of 4!) and he's putting on over 2000 credits/day. Hope he gets bored and goes over to another project soon!

Posted: **Mon Sep 18, 2006 11:10 pm**

I have added this project to my "big gun" to go with the SAP effort.

Posted: **Tue Sep 19, 2006 10:08 pm**

I see my little lappy's just kicked in. :)

Didn't realise the WU's were so tiny. :roll:

Posted: **Tue Sep 19, 2006 10:28 pm**

Good little Shaman has joined the uFluids gang and is going to taste those lovely WUs for a while. I've been offline a while as I was moving house and my other projects are not letting me download WUs for the moment anyway.

So I shall play with uFluids tasks. Mmmmmm .... Crunchy! :roll:

It`s a new idea for the UBT team. Judging by the results I`m getting, it seems to be working a treat. As far as I know, there are only 2 projects that have cheerleaders. If you`re in to that sort of thing, I`m sure Tim (UBT - Timbo) would be only too delighted to appoint you a cheerleader of some project of your choice.

Rick.

Ok..it's worth a try..but, see, I'd only do it if I was allowed to wear the outfit and sing 'Hey Mickey!' like Lolly did in that video...

Hi R

You can wear WHATEVER you want if it means you keep on crunching away....

We don't need to see the photo's as proof either :oops:

And if you want to "cheerlead" for a specific project, just let me know which one and you'll be instantly upgraded - but you'll have to work hard to keep said title......just coz you're wearing a tu-tu, doesn't mean you are always a cheerleader...

Tim

Ta Timbo! I will have to wait a bit. Still unpacking after a house move. When I am stable and have more online time I may well take you up on that!

A word of warning to cheerleaders!

Timbo has been nown to offer hobnobs for private pom pom shaking sessions :lol:

Some good news at last. We are just about to overtake Poland to regain some lost ground. Our RAC is now much more healthy, there are quite a few teams above us which have considerably lower RACs then we have and if our efforts are maintained, we should rocket up the charts in a few weeks.

I am amazed at the positive response from all of you, and if it were possible, I would buy you all a pint! As it is, have a pint or two anyway.
Well done guys, and keep uo the good work.

Kindest regards,

Rick. :occasion5:
