Hi all
I'd really like all UBT members to consider taking part in as many of the current (and forthcoming) BOINC project Challenges that are listed in this section.
I know we all have our own "pet projects" that we like to support, but in many cases, the project challenges take place over a relatively short time and so switching projects for just a few days, is not really going to harm the projects you prefer to crunch data for.
Of course there are one or two exceptions:
1) We try to support as many projects as we can, that are part of the annual "Formula BOINC" challenge
2) We try to support some of the longer challenges that are organised by various projects as well some other teams, such as the Pentathlon and SETI-WOW events, which take place over one to two weeks.
So, with this in mind, please do your best to get involved with the Challenges and we can then really invoke some great Team spirit...and who knows, you might find that you enjoy being part of a UK Team that knocks the stuffing out of teams from some other countries...
Please also note that, in most cases, joining a Challenge is very simple - you just need to use BOINC Manager (or BOINC Tasks) to switch your computer to be processing data from the chosen project(s)...in most cases you don't need to do anything else, as the Challenges tend to be geared up for teams, rather than individuals...
And of course, you are probably already a member of UBT... if you aren't, then JOIN US...we'd be pleased to have you in our Team...and you'll be joining the other 5,000+ members who are already part of the #1 UK Team !!
