Does breathesgelatin really think that the badge thing is the "important question"? Is not the science the important question? Oh come one...his question was valid as I was wondering it too. Everyone knows that badges are for fun but they are fun because they give you a goal to go after and it gets exciting when you are almost to the next badge level but the project is coming to an end. |

At this point, the new targets will be apart of the same phase. Since the new targets are being screened using the same process as the first 3 targets.
Sek, the calculation time needed to calculate these next targets highly depends on the size of the target as well. If it is a complicated one, then more splits will be required to do one work unit. But I would estimate that the project will continue through the end of the year. -Uplinger -Uplinger |

this is good to hear unfortunatly unless i manage to get alot more systems i probably will not be able to make the next badge level on this project still though

----------------------------------------I have been using your chart alot over the past 6 months. It is quite helpful. Thanks for making it and keeping it updated. You have indicated the break in work for HFCC in the same way that DDDT2 is shown. DDDT2 is phase 2 while HFCC will not be. I don't think it best to show them both the same way without a note or annotation. A casual reader not having seen Uplinger's statement may be mislead by that break in the chart. Cheers   |

Chix,
----------------------------------------Thanks for the suggestion. I'll mess around with it when I've got time and inspiration to maintain as much as possible the casual reader proof presentation.

Good news. To me getting reseach done faster is the point. Badges make it competitive and I like that. Everyone in my opinion has the same chance. Personally I am always trying to direct more computer power toward those goals. It makes scientist HAPPY!

I am very happy about this information on two new compounds to study.
----------------------------------------This means I will have a chance to get to 10 years with this project in the future.  Btw the scientist see that our grid is becoming more powerful every day, so this may give them also new ideas.   |

yes i agree with us proving usefullness to the scientists we will attract more projects and more reserch.. so we will all be happy crunchers.. I am glad for the new compounds and will figure out how much of my computers i will devote to these vs other WCG projects when they show up.
