Re: The WCG 500 Gig Mark Challenge

A link to fast-track enroll in your OP, courine?
this one http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/challe...lenge.do?challengeId=3611

But when since is 500 million results, 500 gig, lest I missed the reason? Long as noone has enrolled the name can still be changed.

Have fun racing

(do not reply to this post... I'll delete this when I see enlightenment, of self ;>)

Might need to change the start date too.

By my graduated eyeball, we should hit 500,000,000 results near 09/07/10.

Re: Might need to change the start date too.

Oh, when I do it right, people dont listen. But if I mess* UP, then people will come out of the woodwork.

So let me ask you this, who would be doing this at all? The fact that WCG isnt running this race or even see the reason why, tells me im barking up the wrong tree. So this is why so little has been put into this race. Even to the point of getting the name right.

Maybe now its obvious that Im just wasting my time by putting anything into any race thread. As the only time I feel this is worthwhile, is when I do this purely for my own reasons. Then when almost no one seems to show up in the threads, I dont care. Or atleast, it doesnt hurt as much.

So Im going away until WCG starts to understand that there is a value in a PR dept. Because until then, this is a total waste of my time.

SeK, you are getting what you always wanted, so be happy.

Re: Might need to change the start date too.

BTW, its not this thread postings that makes me feel this way. Its the letters telling me to "keep my nutjob *** out of Dodge" again. So it isnt your post Sek that is the problem. But you are getting your wish anyway.

Re: Might need to change the start date too.

courine,

suggest that next time the blow out preventer is threating to spill a few barrels to go sit on your hands for a little and count to 100. You've turned this invitation into a rather nasty read and has been reported and are wrongly sup-positioning allot of me and others. That what is right needs no comment... things that are suspected to be incorrect are queried. If it would not be me it would have been another member what the 500 Gig was about. Your OP was just a 1 liner, nothing on this forum in the generally read areas such as Chat Room to elude on your plan.

Since it's now past the point of changing the name by the creator, maybe a short mail to the admin might work, but then the OP title would make no sense anymore, but can be edited up to 120 days after a post is made.

geopsychic,

I make it the early hours of the 5th too. The chart below I somehow never added to the published collection (It's in the 500 million thread), but will with some fat banner on it when we're there.

Good crunching.



edit: corrected second address to geopsychic.

Re: Might need to change the start date too.

Today I see 50 teams joined the challenge.
I'd be happy to see some more Top-100 Teams to take part wink.
