Good to hear HK-Steve
 
I do not think that any Challenge should bring down a Project to the Point of regular users are not able to run them.
I think it is a bad idea for all.

Just a friendly reminder this challenge starts in 1 day 9.5 hours!  
 
Every task returned during the challenge will be counted, meaning you can download tasks now.  I'm not bunkering, but am currently crunching so that I have a running start to the challenge.

Standard Running Project for me, also "I'm not bunkering" as well.
Any WCG Challenge or any Challenge that allows bunkering only means for me that the Real Challenge is only within our own Team.
So the Pie Charts will return.

You will have to keep me out of the pie charts then. I am playing by the rules. Not going to give them a big head start.
Sorry

Other Team Members are more then welcome to bunkering anytime for any reason Bill.
I will keep your number one spot fresh on the Pie Chart as always.

Thank you Bill. Not sure about #1 in WCG, maybe PG CPU challenges (for now). I know you guys are building monster crunchers of your own.
I welcome the competition.
I expect a good thrashing this coming PG GPU challenge, Will be interesting who on the team will be in the lead.
 
I would be ok with it if there were a way, if they wanted to find a way, to do it like PG, no bunkering But it is what it is and bunkering is not all that easy really.
To do it right and be good at it is a PITA. I also look at it this way, they have been doing it that way for years, lot longer than I have been crunching. Not my call.

WCG is not giving out the amount of wu's I'm requesting, so I have some in the queue but not a real bunker job. I agree with bill1024 that professional bunkering is a pita and not in my scope of interest. I'll run all the core's I have until I need to back a few off for PG.

I have the same problem. Even if I asked for 5 days of work they gave me less than 24hrs of work.

What does the BOINC log file say?
Have you checked your WCG preferences under "My Projects" to see what's enabled?  The only project with a decent amount of work is OpenZika, so make sure that one is checked.

This ongoing problem may be resolved by uninstalling the client including all data folders and starting fresh.
 
Happy birthday EVGA Crunchers.

I tried posting earlier that you should get some sleep and release what you have in the AM. But it didn't take. If you're not getting any tasks now then it's a no-brainer.
 
If there aren't enough tasks to go around it could be a dud of a contest.

I think what will happen is, when the bunkers are uploaded the servers will be able to send out the next progression WUs.
I doubt it takes long, bit I could be wrong.

Man, That is not good. So the bunkers get the tasks first before the challenge, then we get the crumbs..........
 
Ok, I admit, I bunkered a little,  but did not realize everyone does not get anything after that at the start......
