Re: "The survivors"

A cruncher from Tech Power Up offered to host SNURK's signature.
Don't know the details but this is not the first offer.

In the meantime, it is again raining 7..26 BETA - MCM

Re: "The survivors"

Looked at BOINCstats/BAM! | BOINC combined stats and was surprised at the low active percentage numbers for BOINC:
Users 2,680,584
Active users 236,455 (8.82%)
Teams 99,321
Active teams 20,701 (20.84%)

The WCG percentages are better:
Users 420,803
Active users 67,872 (16.13%)
Teams 22,375
Active teams 7,384 (33.00%)

I appreciate the contribution made by each and every team member.
We would not be were we are without your participation.

There may not be a cure in my lifetime, however I feel better running WCG than mailing a check to someone I don't know.
It would be cheaper to make a cash contribution than to run multiple PCs 24/7 but to me it is worth the cost to run WCG research.
I know this research is not as exciting as video games but in my mind there is no comparison in worth.

Re: "The survivors"

i have gotten alot of people to try BOINC and such but unfortunately it is rare to get someone to stay... most of the inactive members are people who for one reason or another decided they couldn't afford the cpu cycles or the energy cost of running 24/7.. or some have changed there name and didn't list other projects afterwords

either way i feel if one person dose one work unit they have done at least something and i am gratefull

Re: "The survivors"

I have been working on a new signature to make it unique.
The background is fractal art, which has been distorted by the signature software.
It resembles a tilted DVD disk reflecting a variety of fabric-like colors.
In reality it is nothing but formulas and options, many of which I don't know.

Is this what I set out to do?
Ah..., maybe not!

The only problem is that it is impossible to find a font color that works with this colorful background.

For the present I am happy with this signature.
If it develops problems I will change again.

Re: "The survivors"

Sorry I couldn't put more colors in it.
Fractal geometry is difficult for someone still learning the times tables.

The goal was to make the signature unique not hazardous.
Maybe it needs a disclaimer?
View at your own peril?
Don't look at this with your good eye?

I wanted a signature nobody else had.
Looks like nobody else wants it.
I'm okay with that.

Re: "The survivors"

Both of the AT&T LG E970 Androids are doing okay, here are some results following correction of the device names:

Device Statistics
Statistics Last Updated: 11/21/13 12:06:02 (UTC) [9 hour(s) ago]
Agent Type Device Name Last Results Returned (UTC) Total Run Time (y:d:h:m:s) Points Generated Results Returned
BOINC android_1 11/21/2013 13:58:12 0:085:11:53:27 82,931 242
BOINC android_2 11/21/2013 13:24:45 0:073:02:57:38 62,814 233

I added an old Android screen shot to the signature.
Presently they are running only FAAH - Vina.

Re: "The survivors"

I like the green ribbon.
Not so sure about the box of badges.
Don't like the android screen shot. It's unreadable.(Possibly due to eye damage
incurred on the previous signature.)
