Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

No secrets here. Maybe there are some guys away with a lot of luck and in this way got a lot of DDDT2 WU's, but I can't believe just on that.

My guess is that it's a question of numbers of cores available to process DDDT2 (more willl bring you more chances), plus a lot of follow up at the foruns regarding DDDT2, plus discipline and micromanagement to setup all yours machines to get it, etc.

Follow just an example to help you on that (there are distinct ways to get the same effect):

Config all yours profiles covering all devices to work with an additional work buffer days like 2 days (more or less days, it's up to you), covering yours favourites projects.

After it, update all yours clients installed in all devices to make sure that this change make effect, and in few minutes the WU's will be charged in yours devices (if you have a queue small than your buffer choice).

Change all yours profiles covering all devices to work with an additional work buffer days like 2.1 days (more or less, it's up to you), covering the DDDT2 project (or more intermitents projects together).

After it, update all yours clients installed in all devices to make sure that this change make effect. And from this time on you will go fishing DDDT2 WU's.

Make sure that after the additional work buffer days time choose, you will take a look at your devices, to abvoid anyone run dry of WU's (and at this time, if don't receive any DDDT2 WU's, repeat the operation...).

Good luck. wink peace good luck coffee

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

Personally, I think part of the 'luck', is that those (I'm a prime example of this), who are on their computers all of the time (e.g., through work commitments), are scanning the forums/their queues on a pretty regular basis, and thus, when DDDT2 WU's either are available or a flood is announced, can react very quickly to mop up as many WU's as possible...

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

yup me too,
unfortunately i have to leave for a month with very spotty access to computers, and mine will be shut down (as most every other electrical appliance) to prevent possible fires.

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

It has been at least a month since I had a DDD-2 WU and that with 9 machines about 15 cores "hunting" for them. They are just hard to get and I figure once they finally let the deluge begin I will have more then enough WU's. Only concern, albeit a small one is that they sprinkle the units over the entire project. Then my chances will have dried up and blown away!

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

We are working with the researchers to get more work units to everyone. We need to get through these 30 work units first. Once we get the type A's back from all the member machines, AND the results look good, we'll get type B work units. Same process to get to type C which should produce about 5,000 work units. I know a small drop of rain, but it is summer time in northern hemisphere...

I know this is painful for everyone, as you can see I am also in the hunt for a sapphire badge. As a cruncher we must allow the scientists time to analyze and validate the results so we can get good work units to best help them. I will try to keep everyone informed as I know more.

Thanks,

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

I certainly am not the rainman as despite having only selected DDD-2 and one of the four active projects for last months have recieved no new DDD-2 WU's which is fine as I know once ready they will come. Soon will have to build an ark as there will be so much rain!

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

Uplinger.
I see 6 WU's returned yesterday.
I think 2 more are still missing or are we complete ?

How do they look? can we expect 60 B types so 120 WU's soon?
Why not sending 3 or 4 copies to speed things up.
Maybe you have the complete set by monday then.
