The goal to strive for. The marks of achievement. Something you actively manage. Beating other people to significant moments (every project now has a first to gold thread now, what do you think that is really for). It takes WCG from being something your computer does when you aren't gaming (or even working occasionally) to something you want to monitor, something that you are interested in and something that you keep returning to so you know how you are doing. It wouldn't surprise me to to find out WCG saw a significant increase in crunching after the introduction of the badges and an increase in their user retention rate. And my girlfriend thinks I'm too competitive, now if I could only get out of PV hell on this project. I mean seriously look at this; The Clean Energy Project 233,248 272 0:179:02:23:48 Wow! Lot's of Members with great Badges in this thread!  Leewok, well stated. You are one heckuva competitor. And yes, I hope you like Chocolae Chip Cookies.   |

We still have work available to us and I believe it'll last past 40 days. There is no final estimate as there are batches that have not been created yet so I can't gauge a close enough estimate. We know the total number of batches to be created by the researchers. -Uplinger Well it's the last day of July and I have enough Active and Pending Validation right now to get me to 162 days so I don't think getting to 180 will be a problem. I wanted to get to one year for the sapphire, but I only have six cores. If I average 5 days CPU time for every real day, that means I should be able to get there in 36 days if I have enough work.

If you have your settings marked as "only CEP", you normally should have enough work available. I wanted to get to one year for the sapphire, Unfortunately, 1 year isn't Sapphire, it's Emerald. However, that's also quite a nice batch to have.  |

I have enough in my cache now to make my Solar Leaf background Ruby so being Emerald is out of the question given the work left, I am shutting down and let the rest of you complete this phase of the project. Happy Badge hunting!

Cheers Johnny Cool
Chocolate is always appreciated in any form, I will take these to celebrate finally going ruby in CEP and getting my first Sapphire. |

I only have about 35 days to Emerald and have about 15 days pending validation so I hope to get 20 more days there before the units dry up!
