I've just received the folowing notification/invitation, for us to take part in the forthcoming Pentathlon 2019.
So, if anyone wants to take part, then just crunch on the selected projects at the time !!here we go again. From 05 May to 19 May, the tenth BOINC Pentathlon
[https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pentathlon/]
will impose the known, but also new challenges, and SETI.Germany warmly invites all enthusiast teams to join.
While the basic concept of five disciplines at five projects of course remains untouched, there are again some innovations
[see also https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_penta ... Rules.html]:
Javelin Throw is a fresh and new discipline and requires the teams to cleverly split their resources, as the rankings are not based on the sum of all
points, but only on each team's third best day out of five (not necessarily consecutive) days. This year's Marathon will take place at a subproject of the World Community Grid chosen by the project administrators. The preferences of the participating teams are taken into account, with some limitations, for choosing the projects for the other disciplines.
Until 27 April, the teams can sign up and vote for their favorite
projects using this form:

(admin note: I've already done this )
So, don't be shy and join:
It will be exciting again at the BOINC Pentathlon!
regards
Tim
Note: This does clash slightly with the 5th Sprint from 9th-12th May.
