Thanks for the Reminder!!!! 4 Years for me now as well!!

Is there a place where you can find how long you've been folding for?  I know roughly when I started for the LTT forum but I folded sporadically before here and would be curious to see how long it's been.

You can look for your folding name here https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=223518

I've used that website for a while but not sure that they have any way to check how many years I have been folding for.  I guess I didn't word my other reply as well.  I was looking to see how many years ago I signed up and started folding.  I used to fold for another forum almost 20 years ago at this point but it would be cool to figure out when I actually signed up and started.

Mines not accurate on their list.  It shows my first record as 3/16/2020.  I have been folding on/off with the same user name since at least 2006 if not farther back than that.  Before the LTT forum I used to fold for the PcApex (Pimprig) forums;

• Team PimpRig (596)

• Earned 6,960,174 points by contributing 13,956 work units

Team data is separated... so you see when you started folding for the team you are looking at

Ahh, I also found this quote on the EOC database stats page           "Unfortunately I've had to prune the tables over the years, and as of right now user data only goes back to 2013, and team data to 2008." 

 

So even they don't have the records going back that far.  Oh well.  I was messing with the wayback machine and looking at my old forum posts and found some from 2006 that I was having stuck WU issues so I know it's back at least that far.  Certainly didn't get as many points per WU back then.

A belated Welcome to Team LTT then!

 

For future reference the easiest way is to just click on your Folding Legend Badge here which is linked to your EoC Stats page

 

Perhaps you had to change your username in the past or get a new PassKey which, I believe, would give you a different ID on the EoC Stats page.

 

Here is your Stats Page at F@H which shows the other Teams you've folded on using your current username but, unfortunately, does not show the start date.

 

I believe Jason@EoC also prunes the members from Teams if they've been inactive for a while to keep things a bit more manageable.

did new WUs drop or something?

i'm seeing consistent 40+M PPD these days, but that used to be 35 or something. 

 

for the record: i'm not complaining!

[Captainmarino]

Spoiler

 

I do not think I have been seeing any of those WU

Nope, not seeing a 14% increase in Production - if anything I'm seeing around a 2.5% decrease over the last week. I'm guessing you picked up a few "Unicorn" WUs

Still seeing 40+, i dont think this is a couple unicorns at this point?

Have you set your cause to Alzheimer's or something else? I'm still seeing lower aggregate PPD these days from about 125-127Mppd down to 118-123MPPD but I'm currently just running "Any" for my Cause preference. There seem to be a glut of poorly yielding p12296-7 & p14951 "Unspecified" projects currently.

i've specified Cancer, If i'm missing those unspecified WU's i guess that could be the cause indeed.

I've been taking a look at it a little deeper by diving into my HfM data and it turns out the current crop of poorly yielding WUs are all ones with Small (<100,000) Atom sizes and most of these are Categorized as "Unspecified." It just turns out that a few Projects have launched that need these smaller Models.

 

I'm just going to leave things stock (Preference = "Any") as it's work worth doing but setting a Preference for Alzheimer's or Cancer would likely yield better on Current Mid to High-Tier GPUs (i.e. >=4070) as most of these WUs have larger Atom sizes.

Thanks for looking into this! I was just about to post if anyone else has been getting lower points lately. Though it was just my PC since I had a WP die and had some heating issues since

Congratulations @Shlouski Top 100!

 

Thank you.

 

I put this machine together for the last event and its been very reliable so far (touch wood), it's been months since I last touched it.

 

Getting into the top 100 and having no issues makes me very happy as I don't have much free time at the moment.

i don't know what i did last maintenance window to create this, but my PPD graph on EOC has been stupidly consistent ever since.

Ummm... can you please tell me what you did? Please?

Please?

I knew it was a thing on server/workstation platforms, but never knew it was a thing for consumer hardware!

Look for a Power On setting. Usually can be set to "On" "Off" or "Last State." You want preferably "Last State" or "On" to have the system come back up after a Power Failure. And/or, if you have a UPS, see my UPS Howto in my Sig. to set your UPS to suspend Folding while on battery.

All my Gigabyte x300-x500 motherboards and my latest Asus x670e Motherboard have it.
