Re: UK

Morning All... and blimey is it cold out there. Following all the snow and ice a few weeks back and after getting over a bad cold, I'm back on the bike for my commute (trying to get fit in time to compete in the Fastnet sailing race in August and then planning to cycle London to Barcelona next year, but that's another story). It's one of those days that doesn't look too bad when you gaze half-asleep out of the bedroom window but then it's a shocker once you're out there.

Roll on spring, warmer mornings and being able to cycle in the daylight - I normally set off at 6.45am.

Hope everyone is crunching well today. Three of my gold projects are now within ~10 days RT of their rubies. Still looking out for the next DDDT2 rain, but it looks to be a while away... not even BETAs yet.

Nope, Barcelona... 950-1000 miles, through the pyrenees, including at least one tour de France stage across 9 days... I have over a year to train for it plus I need a new bike! - this is where all my money goes now... rather than building crunching kit

I'm guessing me pointing out that flying horseless-carriages called planes have been invented would kind of miss the point here! wink

My gaming PC is getting more crunching-time, recently, given that I've been out and about playing INGRESS quite a bit!

Witchcraft, I say!

After a couple of days on the Costa to recover, I'll most definitely be taking a flying horseless carriage back home!

Congrats on the latest milestone by the way.

Thanks all for your input. the number of our contributing volunteers naturally fluctuates throughout the year for various reasons, e.g. things slow down around summer and end of year holidays. Also, we lose members when a research project ends (e.g. if they had selected to only contribute to that project) - after a certain period of 'inactivity', we do contact these members to encourage them to sign up to other projects instead. This has been fairly successful at getting members to contribute again. And since we do have new projects planned for 2013, we hope these will attract new members!

And we will review the input on expanding our badge offerings
.


The final point mentioned is that getting updates from researchers keeps people engaged - and we completely agree! We ask each research team to provide an update to our members at least once a quarter to set the expectations of a minimum level of engagement with the volunteer community. As I'm sure you all appreciate, the lifecycle of a scientific research project is long so it's unrealistic to expect the scientists to have much to report on a more regular basis than that. Our live webcasts (and their replays) are also a great way to help the volunteers learn more about researchers' work and set the context of where your contributions go.
