Extrapolation would be inaccurate as the first 394 (as stated above) joined before the 16 Nov which is when it went public. So I guess many of the 394 would be IBM employees etc so not a true representation..... wink

Re: The "Old 5000" - how many left

Oh so true Dave. I also started day one at UD....from memory around April 2001 and continuous since then....as you say, the Long Haul alien 1

UD did run before this, but wasn't interesting until they added the "think" cancer-project.

While I did join UD the 1st. week after they launced "think", did also quickly dump it due to the terrible UD-agent (at the time all my computers was dual-cpu, while UD could only use 1 cpu-core), so when WCG started using the same agent had zero interest joining.

But, I'm atleast one of the earliest BOINC-users at WCG, since I've got host-id #2508. Since Linux ran for some weeks before this and I'm windows-only couldn't join before this.

Re: The "Old 5000" - how many left

Of the First 5000 Members 571 have crunched in 2013. The full distribution of Last Result Returned :
	Year	#	
2013 571
2012 179
2011 200
2010 163
2009 208
2008 321
2007 357
2006 585
2005 1,456
2004 959
DOA 1
5,000


The 571 still crunching in 2013 have totalled 6270:364:22:24:27 RunTime and the 4,999 10166:158:21:50:57
The largest individual contribution within the 4,999 (& still crunching) is Lonzer 333:046:12:58:33

While you of course can click on every single of the 5000 members to find out, you'll save a lot of time by using BoincStats

My solution was to use iMacros. The only drawback was the ~20 user names with diacritical marks.

jhonnieb,

Whilst you're set up, may I volunteer you to generate a plot by month/year retention as a percent of total that joined in month X of year Y. The 571 you found is slightly under the overall value of about 12% [until recently **], see http://bit.ly/WCGMEM. [Yellow line curve, all members incl.UD, light blue line curve the BOINC only registered, but only maintained since 2009.

Expecting a concave shaped curve [exponential if you will]... the longer, the less remain, but it could also be an undulating curve... as the seasons flow, and the 'binding' with particular sciences. Then on that curve set a timely of points where projects were started and ended.

** We lost a bunch since the rapid wind-up of multiple sciences.
