BOINC Pentathlon 2021

[Gorgon]

From HardOCP forums:

Well 6th at best if we can hold onto that very slim lead and LTT is likely to beat us in javelin throw. 

CNT might have a bunker but you never know till the finishing line which will then push us back to 8th

[Gorgon]

Just sent the following to CNT.

Wow, what an impressive fight you have here. It's great to see how you guys try everything to reach that 5th place in a last minute coup. And that in a public board, visible to everyone. That's wonderful and as Pentathlon has to be. Good luck for the last 3 hours!

Thank you for your kind words. We give it our all, all that is left to wait for is to see how the cards fall.

 

P.S. Great showing from you guys as usual. 

 

Happy folding,

Whoo Hoo! - We did it 5th Place: Total:11,295,821; This update: 525,983

 

Moving my CPUs back to WCG OpenPandemics and firing the GPUs back up on F@H.

That was some fun and action until the very end

[GOTSpectrum]

So damn close! unless something goes very wrong on the marathon somehow(which is practically impossible) that will be LTTs best showing yet for the BOINC Pentathlon 

 

Well done ladles and gentlespoons, great fucking show!

[leadeater]

We did it!

Should I hold steady on WCG until it's over? Or get everything switched over to SIdock?

Could switch over to SiDock to squeeze out some credits before the event ends.

Javelin Throw's ranks are already decided (at least, for us). It's Best Third Score; the scores of the Teams closest to our rank have been set in stone, and we aren't able to overthrow Team AnandTech's 14.4 mil with our 11.7 mil (our maximum Third Best Score for us).

Likely no time to complete any SiDock in time and likely no reason to - we have a 1,000,000 point lead there.

 

Likewise, we've hit our target on Javelin so no point doing anything there.

 

We're done!

But WAAAaaaaa, I want 5th... lol

I guess Leadeater's getting his way. Even if it's only for today.

 

[HaRdLy007]

Even though I joined late, I'm glad to have taken part!

 

Cheers!

[roxasthehunter]

This was alot of fun, glad i could contribute. I guess, i'll take my machines off the projects then. I did have some other BOINC projects i wanted to contribute to in the mean time.

My CPUs are back on WCG OpenPandemics and GPUs on Folding@Home already.

 

Thanks for joining in

There's no point in keeping it going for the final hour I take it?

I still have 3 days in my task queues, RIP. Oh well 3 more days is fine.

[Windows7ge]

Alright. My systems are off. That AMD EPYC 7601 is a beast. I can't wait to install it in my primary server.

 

Back to OpenPandemics on WCG. I'm so close to that 100 year diamond badge. Just 8 more years worth of compute! 

 

If anybody is wondering what to run next I'd give it a look. It's a good cause.

[Gorgon]

Whew. Perhaps spicy chili for dinner after restarting the GPUs was not such a good idea. Warming up here so the basements at 27C and boy I'm sweating.

[Gorgon]

Ouch.

 

The Chech team came within 10,000 points of HardOCP in the Marathon. So close. If they’d taken it they would have gotten 6th.

[leadeater]

Yea holy crap my production was way down for some reason, great work everyone.

Damn intern must have enabled the firewall.

[rkv_2401]

Congratulations, everyone, great work! There was a point when our position in the Jav was looking shaky, but I'm glad we never gave up. We kept pushing till the end, and we went from wondering if we can even do 10 million points to overshooting our highest target[11.2 million] by 800k!

 

This is our highest position in the Pentathlon, and I'm glad I could contribute. This event was so much fun, and that marathon fight for #6 was so, so close. 10k points was the winning margin out of almost 10 million points total. Congratulations to everyone who competed, and thank you, SETI.Germany for hosting the event.
