Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Each team should be able to have a private forum for team discussions, accessible on the team page. This would enhance the cohesiveness of the team, leading to an increase in the team's competitiveness. As a result, more crunching is done for the WCG overall, and I'm willing to bet that the increase would be significant. I'm sure a forums add-on for about 16k teams wouldn't actually be that difficult/expensive to do. When you consider the scale of the contribution that's being made - over 200 years of cpu time a DAY – one realizes that such is not that much to ask. In any case, teams should also have access to more detailed statistics, I think we can all agree on that.

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

I think adding a private forum for every team here would involve more than we suspect - perhaps one of the CA's or Techs can comment on that aspect.

What detailed stats are you looking for in particular?

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Some teams have private forums (forae) elsewhere, pointed to by the home page link on their team page.

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Private, not viewable forum for whom? Who's the gatekeeper to stop joining a team and snoop or start back-room wars? What standard of conduct and who's to monitor and moderate? Personally I think it's a bridge too far to ask, short and simple.

You could join a big team that has a hush hush part or set up your own like e.g. the 2 man Labyrinth team did. My team has a big forum, but as far as i know except for the admins having a separate fenced off section, all public is welcome to come read whatever is discussed.

On stimulation, soon there will be a team competition feature added.... watch the member news space for announcement.

Added: Detailed statistics.... Someone was about that in another thread just today. If all members of a team would switch to BOINC, very detailed analysis and graphs can be seen at a number of 3rd party maintained statistics sites that cover many DC projects.

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Good points - I suppose it is more practical to have team forums on a seperate team website. My team isn't quite large enough to merit a proper site/forums, but hopefully we'll get there and have one made eventually.

As for the stats, I was thinking that members of a team should be able to see each other's specific device stats.

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Have a look here: http://www.boincstats.com/stats/user_stats.ph...amp;to=100&ti=12830#2 and mouse around the Windy City teams details. The members need to 'unhide' their hosts to see device performance and as said, run BOINC exclusively, then apply the factor 7 multiplicator to arrive at WCG points http://www.boincstats.com/stats/user_graph.php?pr=wcg&id=234462

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Wow, sweet stats I must admit. The WCG site should support/show stats like that!

Thanks!

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

shock WOW and absolutely awesome. These stats are great and have been book marked.
Interesting that these stats show a higher team ranking than I thought I had achieved.

This definitely adds some extra incentive to light the dual 2.3 (3.2?) ghz Xeon machine I am an admin on ..... using the boinc agent of course. This machine runs 24x7, but is rarely used outside a noon to 8pm window.

You have to remember that these are Boinc stats only - if you have team members using the WCG Grid agent as well the they will not be included.
Free-DC have limited team stats for all WCG points (Boinc&Grid Agent) - but it only follows those teams that have requested to be included - you need to submit a request using the 'Submit Bug/Request' link to get your team added.

Re: Forums and More Detailed Stats Pages for Each Team on the WCG Site

Might be cool if the WCG website could some how adopt/clone the BIONC stats, they've got to be in there somewhere. :)
