I've had/completed 12 ARP work-units, so far, but no sign of any new ones for a while now.

I had originally set it to be able to keep 25 concurrent work-units (24-thread server), but I didn't get anywhere near that many and the memory-requirements were already WAY above what my dedicated server has in it, so dropped it back down to just 4 and it seemed a lot more stable.

It's me again. I've had one ARP unit so far. It took 34 hours to process on my NAS. The other copy of the unit was aborted by the user, and for the past 3 days it has been sitting there with status "Waiting to be sent". Clearly it's going to take a long time at this rate to get a badge

There is a great Ice Hockey game on Freesports at 7pm this evening. The Friendship four Final live from the Belfast SSE Arena, the home of the Belfast Giants.
Two great teams from the NCAA league from the USA. The players are future NHL prospects, the speed and skill of them is amazing to watch.

Ice hockey started 2.5 months ago DC, The Giants are struggling for consistency, had a huge turnover of players in the off season and things are not quite right. We beat the top rival for the league title 2 games in a row last weekend yet we have lost our last 2 games only scoring 1 goal. Lots of hockey to play but if it cannot be sorted by Christmas we will not keep the title. This happens a lot in sports, will not stop me loving my Giants.
On the other hand my Canadian team the Edmonton Oilers have really turned things around and are currently 4th in the NHL.

Hi, can I just mention it's my 15 year anniversary at wcg today?
Still just bop bop boppin' along at the same old pace, trying to get that ARP badge. But those wus are so elusive.
