I believe that both of these projects require WUs to be validated, so it might be an idea to start switching over ahead of time if you're not already running them.SETI.Germany wrote:1st BOINC Pentathlon
from 05/05/2010
to 05/19/2010
5 disciplines
1 winner
Einstein@Home: 05/05/ - 05/10/
MilkyWay: 05/09/ - 05/14/
Sorry I haven't been 'on top' of this Challenge, work is getting a little crazy at the moment! :roll:
We herewith announce the 1st project in the discipline of Physics & Chemistry.
The relevant project is Einstein@Home. All credits granted between
05/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) and
10/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) will be taken into the BOINC Pentathlon validation. Please note that with a lot of projects it usually takes a while before credits are granted! The statistics for this project can be found here:

We herewith announce the 2nd project in the discipline of Astronomy.
The relevant project is MilkyWay@home. All credits granted between
09/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) and
14/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) will be taken into the BOINC Pentathlon validation. Please note that with a lot of projects it usually takes a while before credits are granted! The statistics for this project can be found here:
http://www.setigermany.de/boinc_pentath ... ziplinid=3
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We herewith announce the 3rd project in the discipline of Alternative.
The relevant project is FreeHAL@home. All credits granted between
10/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) and
15/05/2010, 0.00 (UTC) will be taken into the BOINC Pentathlon validation. Please note that with a lot of projects it usually takes a while before credits are granted! The statistics for this project can be found here:
http://www.setigermany.de/boinc_pentath ... ziplinid=2
==================================================
I'll post the other two projects as they are announced on the Pentathlon blog site. Before anyone asks, yes the dates are correct, I've double checked them and altered them to UK style, ie dd/mm/yyyy. The idea is to put team members on their strongest projects to score more for their team over the five projects.

To me that means MilkyWay is a pain in the butt for those of us who don't have ATI cards!melter65 wrote: The idea is to put team members on their strongest projects to score more for their team over the five projects.
Also means that I'll only be able to do Einstein and FreeHal as I'll be away for the last 2 projects.
A good idea, Mr RandomJoshrandom wrote:I believe that both of these projects require WUs to be validated, so it might be an idea to start switching over ahead of time if you're not already running them.
I started d/loading Einstein earlier tonight and they took an age to come through. I suspect the other teams are getting ready for the start of the Pentathlon tonight!
Do what you can, Mikee, it all helps!UBT - Mikee wrote:To me that means MilkyWay is a pain in the butt for those of us who don't have ATI cards!melter65 wrote: The idea is to put team members on their strongest projects to score more for their team over the five projects.

I'll not be doing the Milkyway wu's very much as I don't have a GPU card.

Manually adding the scores, we get 30.3 which takes us to 16th place.
I've been forcing uploads/downloads for a few days now.{EDIT} Probably does not help that the servers have also been down for some time and I for one am finding it difficult to upload results?

That lists Cuda Apps as well. Give it a try, I think I have used the Cuda before but its not the fastest app in the world?

So I'm not sure what wu's there are, but if 200k left the database in 11 hours, surely a lot of boincers are filling their cache ready for the pentathalon :shock:
I know I have lol

If they have been filling their caches, then I fear they are a little late since the pentathlon ends in around seven hours time.fellie wrote:So I'm not sure what wu's there are, but if 200k left the database in 11 hours, surely a lot of boincers are filling their cache ready for the pentathalon :shock:

The Boinc Pentathlon is over and UBT are 20th= on 117 points which is great. :D Well done guys you've done the UK proud :wav:
But, who is the top UK team for this elite competition? Well, knock me down with a spurtle of shortbread, if The Scottish Boinc Team haven't provided the premier UK performance with 126 points and 17th= place! :lol: Yes, we're pleased for us too! :wav:
