Re: Did anyone notice we have broken the 1/2 Million Member Milestone?

As I check it now, Boincstats shows 282450 participants with 908283 "hosts".
If you just look one column to the right you will see the Active counts.

Now I have no idea how WCG can report 500K users and Boincstats shows only 282450???

I'm not sure but I guess that the reason is due BOINCstats show us just the user numbers that autorized WCG to show hosts...
There is a specific check box inside My Profile page to do it. thinking coffee

Re: Did anyone notice we have broken the 1/2 Million Member Milestone?

Morning

The disparity is on account of the fact that the project began with the United Devices client as used by Grid.org (I had about 4 1/2 years worth of Cancer WU's over there)

As BOINC supports other OS's than UD's Windows, Multiple Threads and ongoing support and and and.....World Community Grid migrated from UD to BOINC around the beginning of 2006.

I wasn't aware that the milestone had been passed on the 25th Feb I had expected it to be at worst yesterday as we were picking up 500+ additional crunchers per day and that number should grow the greater the existing user base, more people tell more people

Great work is being achieved here on the WCG more great work could be achieved with a bit more trumpet blowing.

<irony alert>

It really doesn't matter that so few know about us I mean we are doing nothing important after all d oh

</irony alert>


Roll on our first Million Crunchers - the sooner the better
