statistic needs

hi everybody,

here is a thought I wanted to share with the community. It's been a long while I started with world community grid and I have so often read in progress thread complains about lack of feedback on the projects. I can say it improved a lot and that now it is possible get some figures from time to time.

Here is now the point of my post. Statistics available on the site don't help to figure out what's going on exactly. From time to time community advisor would post a graph in one of the progress threads of the forum.
This is much more easy to read and it shows clearly computing power repartition. I'm a great fan of these and complain a little to have to "hunt" the forum to get the last one.

Sure I could collect everyday project statistics datas and make my own but I feel it would be easier for everybody to find a place on the site where to find it updated on a regular basis (one a week ? shouldn't give too much worry ^^).

Modifying the site might be bit of a challenge to include either user update zone or to compute sharts, instead a dedicated read only statistic forum in official messages would do the job nicely and would prevent to dig the forum on each progress thread of any project to get the info.

Re: statistic needs

Thought about it several times and put post in the Start Here forum, title "WCG Customized Project Statistics Graphs". Dates of last update is always somewhere in the graph, sometimes in real small print. :D

Some verbiage.... If taking copies, please consider that I claim creative rights They are subject to change without notice and do not in any way purport to officially represent the visions of WCG or it's sponsors.

(if it disappears, you know i got slapped with the rhythm stick)

Re: statistic needs

This is exactly what I imagined ... :) I would be surprised if anybody would complain about it and would sure be curious about the reason ^^.

As we often say in french better a small drawing than a long explanation. I really think they bring some important information. Without going too much into praise I really love the linear regression line for daily cpu years(black line) which speaks by itself. If only this ax+b line could see 'a' grow faster ... :).

Now this brings a question, is it that I'm too dumb I haven't found it myself ? More seriously It lacks a little bit of publicity especially for valuable datas as this, should be accessed in one click and deserves to be in forum home page. :)

thank you for your fast answer
