HFCC_ target-10_ 00000144_ target-10_ 0001_ 0--

:)

as far as I can gather, the exact same number as in the previous 9 targets...

Same cut, since the dockings per task are already at max. There likely is a batch structure, the techs probably doing that in compound blocks of e.g. 1000, but just think of this project running in a continuous stream of the ~2854000 compounds, cut in 2 parts.

The formula of rilian falls short. Due the server 700 method of more frequent verification, my multiplier per compound is now at 2.39 for zero redundant applications. I'll calibrate sometime today how many results there were in T9 including repairs, which was fully run on server 700, then set progress to 90% [9 of 10 targets complete]. That will give a close enough reference of how many are needed for T10. For now I've added HFCC permanently to my now 4 way science selection, until the last sapphire comes along... then it goes my projects, all. Nothing to chase [never understood or were given an indication why the level extensions was never implemented] and given the octo can do a blue in 3 months, any new science is no challenge anymore to max on badge. It's become a matter of just...

Crunch on, which is what we do.

So, just for some back of the envelope figuring we get
(2,854,000tasks * 2.39multiplier)/50,000 tasks per day which gives about 136 days or about 4.5 months of work at the present pace. Approximately the end of January 2013. Just a rough estimate for badge hunters. Thanks Sek.
Cheers

It would be great if WCG would do what they did a couple of targets back. Giving max priority for HFCC so that everyone having it selected would get their caches filled with HFCC. That pretty much ended that target in a day or so :)

That would be a great gift for the scientists at Chiba...but I suppose they have a lot of work and data to analyze from previous targets so unless they are in a hurry it probably won't happen...
