thank God i pay my own electricity...Now i have gotten 1 letter and 1 Email from my electric company saying my usage has more than doubled with a coupon and adverts for 10% off 3 different "recommended" Air con companies...if only they Knew....

Might be useful to keep temperature in check for your server room house

P3DN is getting massive pressure from SG in the Sprint as well. P3DN is trying to hang on in both the Sprint and Marathon. We'll see if that works out for them.

 

What an intense finish. Sprint has both fights for Gold and Bronze and we're in the battle for the Marathon silver.

Aye, the pressure can't be great for them for sure. For us, with windows out I think we are gonna shoot short, so if you have anything more to give, throw it on the pile... like... now... we may just about manage to scrape this

Now to try and go back to sleep, can't believe I woke up after 3.5 hours. Stupid pent.

That was a bad update guys, but don't lose faith, we will fight this till the last moment!

 

The current gap is 145 044 points

SG just blew past P3DN in the Sprint. It will be interesting to see what P3DN decide to do. They will probably have to cut their losses in either the Sprint or Marathon. In either case, if they lose the battle they choose, they might lose bronze in the overall standings.

Sucks  How does this work? Here every tenant has their own meter and pays what they use and one's consumption is nobody's business...

Here the power bill gets bundled in with my rent. Saves me a little money. Under the renters agreement exist a section on not abusing the electrical service. BOINC/F@H is definitely a grey area in regards to that and it seems he finally figured out where all the power was going.

 

I mean as if all the whirling server fans didn't give it away sooner. XD

With the current gap at 188k and their production higher than ours from pulling everything from Sprint we won't be taking 2nd, 6 hours to go it's simply not possible.

[Kilrah]

How about switching to sprint to take one rank there? 6th are close...

I would but the project is down atm and there is a 13hr backlog, I was going to switch if it didn't look possible but I'm not even sure we can even get credits atm.

[Kilrah]

Ah crap... OK so that's why they switched, unfortunate that it removes the strategy aspect...

Doesn't mean we will stop! 

 

If we going down, we're going down swinging!

Well atm I'm suspending any Rosetta job that won't finish by the end and IBER jobs are picking up those free threads. Production will drop slighly but maybe just maybe we'll get the credit for the completed work and pass [H] back but I'm not too hopeful with how broken the project is atm.

[ConceptOW]

What is the plan now? Are we still trying to beat P3D on Rosetta? What are we doing about Sprint?

[WiredInventor]

For badges does Amicable count? It seems dis-proportionally high. But I also want to make sure I request the right badge.  

 

[SwedishNinja]

Likely outcome:

We wont beat P3D in marathon, and retaking any places in Sprint will be hard since server is down. 
Ill keep chugging on rosetta...

yes it counts

[Windows7ge]

I'd make a meme about fighting to the very end but I'm kind of at work on my cellphone so y'all have to deal with just text.

 

DON'T FALTER, KEEP THE PRESSURE ON ROSETTA, LAST MINUTE MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN!

 

FOR THE PRIDE OF THE LINUSTECHTIPS_TEAM KEEP IT GOING!!!

[ConceptOW]

P3D is just outputting more than us on both Rosetta and Sprint.

Do you wanna go down a quitter or do you wanna go down a fighter? Rosetta all or nothing!

It's those German engineered toasters. I hear they're really good.
