It's me or the 80% of the community contribution has been worked by the 0.1970% of the community members?

Do I understand you correctly if I think you mean to say that 20% of the community members don't make their 99.803% of the contribution  |

...and where did you get that from? I think it got lost in translation. I think LM was trying to say it the other way round. I think LM was trying to say 20% of contribution is done by 99.803% of the community. Yes most people either have the odd computer that runs some of the time. A lot of registered people don't contribute any more. Every little helps.  [Edit 2 times, last edit by pcwr at Feb 28, 2019 1:02:46 PM] |

I take some users from a post in the forum:
--->http://prntscr.com/mre19r So I made a potential adjustment: --->http://prntscr.com/mre5nj And finally I made a projection: --->http://prntscr.com/mre8l9 --->http://prntscr.com/mre9a8 The thread I wrote yesterday (Pacific Time) I just have 5 or 6 members in the sample, then the 80% of the work was the 0.1970% of the community, now that I have 17 members in the sample the number is 6.1749% for the 80% of the work. I think if I had a bigger number of members in the sample, the number tends to be 20%, but I believe it's a smaller number.  |

It's me or the 80% of the community contribution has been worked by the 0.1970% of the community members? You have raised my curiosity on this point. I looked at the top 5000 individuals by all time points. This group has contributed 59.89% of the points for WCG. This 5000 represents about .66% of the total members of 758,062 all time members. So, to summarize and round off the numbers less than 1% of the all time members have contributed 60% of the points. I would speculate the same would be roughly true for the results. Cheers

And yet the beneficiaries of all this computing power continue to proclaim the fallacy of "spare computer time."
