I have checked this project under "My Projects" but for some reason I only keep getting work on my other project (HPF2) on both machines.
What is the reason for this? Is there anything I can do? |

I get very few in any combination simply because the project has been assigned a low weight within multi-project profiles. That combined with HPF2 which has a normal weight assigned by WCG creates a condition where with still short supply, few come through. Most get snapped up by those who've selected to do CEP only as primary.

Is there a way to select one project for one machine and another for the other?
I really want to start CEP but I've been supporting HPF (1 and 2) for so long that I really, really wouldn't wanna quit it now. |

Yes, just create additional device profiles in My Grid > Device Manager and after assign those profiles to the device(s). Each profile allows the selection of different project(s).

I just customized my profile for both home and default. Thanks all for helping me out here.
There is one last question that may not be so much related to WCG itslef but I'm sure you can help me out. Where can I find that image with My BOINC stats? I went to my boinc stats but I dunno where to find the image itself. |

When you are logged in, on the left pannel you find a link "BOINCstats". Underneeth this link there is another link called "Signature". There you will find, what you want... So long Totto |

Sign on at boincstats.com. When you are logged in... You don't even need to be registered there. I have just tried as a guest and I could see my pictures. Once you see your individual page (either for WCG or cross-projects) you will find the links for your signature picture just above your five best days. That said, if you are crunching under the same name as you use for the forum you might have some difficulty to find your page. I tried to find you and I could not (via the search field). Cheers. Jean. |

At the present time acquiring a WU for CEP appears to be only "by appointment only". Please see below Thu Apr 9 21:54:30 2009|World Community Grid|Message from server: No work can be sent for the applications you have selected Thu Apr 9 21:54:30 2009|World Community Grid|Message from server: No work is available for The Clean Energy Project Thu Apr 9 21:54:30 2009|World Community Grid|Message from server: You have selected to receive work from other applications if no work is available for the applications you selected Thu Apr 9 21:54:30 2009|World Community Grid|Message from server: Sending work from other applications. I also install WCG on another computer and at the time selected CEP as the only project. No work units were received until HFCC was selected. I give up on this project. Before it was bad work units and now scarcity of work. |

I give up on this project. ... RaymondFO: I'm sure it will be OK with WCG if you de-select CEP from your project mix while the current limited supply of WUs continues. But, they'd love you to keep crunching other projects, at least until more CEP work is available.You can check the total numbers of WUs returned for each project each day by clicking the project names links on your login "My Grid" page. Look at the numbers under the "Yesterday" subheading. Compare the numbers for various projects. Example: For 9 April, 2064 CEP and 75098 HPF2 WUs were returned. If you keep CEP selected, and you are patient, and the trickle of CEP work continues, you should be able to get some. I have CEP alone selected on 1 machine and it has received 2 CEP WUs out of about 8 total over the last day. On other machines having 3 projects including CEP selected, I've received 1 CEP in about 60. Meanwhile, I'm sure the CEP scientists are very busy working towards getting the project up to full speed.
