Re: Good morning everyone

Good morning all. Lovely sunny day here at the moment. I will be out in the garden today planting flower and herb (NO not that kind biggrin) seeds for my winter display. The seasons are somewhat topsy turvey here seeing that it is possible to grow flowers in the winter but it is too hot for them in the summer.

Re: Good morning everyone

Good morning all. Things have been a bit hectic recently, so I haven't had much time to check the forums. Also, my crunching output has dropped due to pressure from my boss, who is not a big fan of WCG sad
It's nice to see lots of shiny new badges, and some new joiners. The temptation to buy or rent a large number of cores is becoming too much. Resist! Resist!

ps. The red "15" in my signature is entirely mac1's fault sad

Re: Good morning everyone

Good morning everyone. It looks like my averages are on the up. The big question is 'Can I overtake Mike D Green for the Team No. 8 slot BEFORE Tom overtakes me and relegates me back to position 9? It will be very close but I think it is possible that I will get to position 8 for one or two days. Time will tell!

I know that feeling, I had a dedicated server in my "staff co-location" area in work plus five 4-core VMs on a test-platform that were always-on, but got told they were all using too much power for a cause no-one else but me seemed as interested in! sad

That's why my crunching recently has just been with the dual hex-core Xeon dedicated server that I'm renting.

Am considering adding to that, once I've actually moved house (hopefully towards the latter end of this year), but will have to see what finances are like once I'm settled in.

Oops, sorry Rod.
According to the compare function on Dave's stats, it will take you 12 days to overtake Mike, but only 4 days for me to overtake you (and Mike). I don't realy want to turn off my servers for ten days, although if I get my electric bill (sob) I may... crying

Looking on the bright side though, if you drop back to position 10 then it will only be 8 days before you get your position 9 back... smile

Good morning all.
Nevermind Tom - I looked at the stats this morning and you are quite correct. Don't turn off your servers (unless of course the Electicity Company Baliffs arrive) you are making a fantastic contribution to the team and I'm only jealous. I should have overtaken Mike D Green some time ago but a burst of crunching by him allied with overheating of my iMac (now solved) has delayed my upward aspirations. I'll still keep going with my ageing 20 cores and dream of something a bit bigger and better when circumstances permit. What with A/C and my Swimming Pool and Irrigation Pumps I'm already paying over £100 / month for my electricity.
