We are hanging in there at #7 with less than 5 hours to go.
----------------------------------------@ryan222h, you picked a good time to attach to the project, the new app runs in half the time for the same credits! Edit: alas we are now at #8. [Edit 1 times, last edit by swiftmallard at Aug 12, 2013 10:09:24 PM] |

I finally made it into the top 1000 for results returned - all CPU, no GPU.
----------------------------------------#999 tonight. That will only last until the the next GPU project takes off. Then the GPU crowd will forge ahead. Crunch on. Cheers

Teams and points and all the other stuff is not the reason I participate in this endeavor. Solving the riddle of disease is what brought me in. This has once again hit pretty close to home. I have an in-law who has been battling cancer in various forms for over 20 years, enduring numerous surgeries and parting with various organs. Now there is nothing more modern medicine with all its miracles can accomplish besides palliative care. He is in his early 50's and should have had more years left. He is not the first relative I have lost this way, but he is the youngest. I wish I could fix it, but I can't so helping with research, for me, is the next best thing.

Teams and points and all the other stuff is not the reason I participate in this endeavor. Solving the riddle of disease is what brought me in. When I first started crunching here, that was also the case, and still is. I've since also embraced the points/badges system as it helps keep the motivation level up, for those who it hasn't hit close to home yet. Speaking of which we are in a close fight with Ukraine for the #2 spot, with them currently besting us at the moment. Doing my best with what I've got. http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/challe...lenge.do?challengeId=5966 [Edit 1 times, last edit by ryan222h at Aug 21, 2013 1:42:21 PM] |
