Into the fast lane
Am I right in thinking that when people join CPDN that their points come with them? If so, we're about to do some overtaking. We should pass HispaSeti and boinc.sk.

Yep any CPDN credits are transferred to the new team a user joins, any other projects this doesn't happenUBT - Chris Suddick wrote:Am I right in thinking that when people join CPDN that their points come with them? If so, we're about to do some overtaking. We should pass HispaSeti and boinc.sk.

Re: Into the fast lane
Yes he does - We've just had a "mega-cruncher" join the team at CPDN - username = "kbarlow" with 400,000 credits on CPDN.UBT - AJS wrote:Chris, do you know something the rest of us don't ?
check this:
http://www.ukboincteam.org.uk/ubt-hall-400k.html
Plus he has a few credits with LHC and QMC and BBC....!
I've already emailed him with a "Welcome" and with the suggestion that he use the same email address for all of the projects, so all his credits are combined....!
BUT: I think CPDN have changed their approach to credits, as so far, our CPDN team credit has not shown a 400,000 credit increase on the day, which is what you would expect if the credits were taken from "kbarlow's" old team ("UNITED KINGDOM") and applied to ours....!
I've left a msg in the CPDN project forum here:
http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnb ... hp?id=4294
to see if they have changed the awarding of team credits.....!
Keeping fingers crossed !!

I'd seen "kbarlow" as a username turn up yesterday on one of the project sites - just as I was trawling each of the projects to get an uptodate listing of emaill addresses (to invite members to the 2nd Weekend Crunch").
Am keeping fingers very crossed....!
You know why!!

Re: Into the fast lane
Yup - But the total UBT credits has NOT increased - it was at 2,468,000+ BEFORE "kbarlow" joined us.
By rights, it should now be 2,868,000+ !! And on the CPDN project page, it hasn't gone up either.
Hence my msg in the CPDN project forum.
Only possibility is that CPDN update their "total credit" stats maybe once a day, even though their "total membership" stats changes as people join....!

Tim

Re: Into the fast lane
I've just been checking around a bit - when username "RodEllery" joined our team crunching for CPDN on 9th March, the team stats jumped up by around 57,000 on the 10th....! (His 48,629 and a few from other members...!)UBT - AJS wrote:Oh, I see what you mean, bummer
see the CPDN graph here:
http://www.ukboincteam.org.uk/ubt-graph ... erday.html
So, maybe as long as CPDN haven't changed anything in the last week, then tomorrow, things MIGHT be a tad different !!

I seem to remember that it took a day for our credit total to drop.UBT - Steve Taylor wrote:Im now convinced the credits follow the member when axpayne left UBT our credits dropped by that amount
The graphs show "axpayne" credits were debited on 7th Feb, but I think he actually departed on the 6th Feb (coz I emailed him to wish him well with his new team - I was going to thank him for his credit contribution, but he took them all with him !!!!!!! ).
Anways, I thought that "kbarlow" joined us yesterday, so have been waiting for the stats to update today....! Maybe they are slow...!

Hi Darren,Dazza wrote:Yes they only do credits twice a day and the last was about 9:00am so I think the next is at 10:00pm!
We'll see then
I can't wait....!
Then I'll have to update the website to show us in world 51st position....!
And then tweak the graphs, etc....!
And then we're after.... "Team EDGE".

50 brownie point to you then....!
but you could have said your "prediction" before and saved me sweating ...I was getting all "wound up" as I had thought CPDN might have changed their policy on CPDN team members taking their credits with them when they left a team.
But nice that we're there now.
Now, got to get Keith's address and send him a box of choccy's !

Even better - see this:

Think some teams must be quaking in their boots !!
The tide HAS turned and UBT are becoming a MAJOR force in BOINC CRUNCHING and not just in UK, but pretty much the WORLD.
I cannot express enough how grateful I am to EVERYONE in the Team for really cracking on and generating mucho credito !!
You almost make me want to shed a tiny tear!
with VERY BEST regards,
Tim
