I am in a battle with Sebastian from team Sicituradastra  
We are changing spots back and forth every hour.
Guess it will depend on who drops more finished WUs before it ends.
They seem to be a big team and always do quite well in the PG challenges.
Down to just under 3 hours left to go.

I have been watching that!  It has been very close between you and the next place for quite a while.  Too bad it's not as easy to crunch in someone else's name as it is to fold, or I'd switch my systems over to your name for the last WUs.  But, you might want to do it on your own anyway...

I hated to do it, I had no room in the house, I had to put it on the back porch. My wife thinks I am crazy.
Got one on the kitchen table and one in every room.
Also now, I have no more PSUs, but I did have one!
What you say, am I talking about.
A B24 carpet bomber!!!!!  Really, really did not want to fire one of those up. Too warm here for them But.......
 
I need to find a couple cheap PSUs. I see NewEgg has a EVGA 650G for a good price with rebate.

I have so much cottonwood seed flouting outside it would cause blockage within minutes.

I have one unit at 99.914% for some time now, and 10 hours total. Could that be a possible prime? On that rig they typically take about 3 hours.

It's in the history books folks.
Great job everyone!!!

Thank you all for an absolutely tremendous challenge! Participation was amazing, but the really impressive statistic is, of course, the number of primes that were found. Six! Absolutely amazing. Great job everyone, and congratulations to the six of you on discovering a mega prime!!!

I'm glad the challenge went well.  Not sure why people don't finish the tasks they downloaded though.  I just tell my client to stop downloading new tasks and let the units play themselves out.

I finished some after it was over and some I aborted and sent back.
Unlike folding WUs, the WUs get sent out right away to other crunchers, so it does not hurt the project like folding.
With folding the WUs have to time out and then they are sent back out. It can delay the sequence and harm the project depending how many times in a row it times out.
I had so many systems running and it is getting hot here again. So after the challenge is over some are going back.
Can't wait to see this electric bill .

I do or I did but my settings are set to 0.04 and 0.02 so it only downloads what can run and then at about 94% it will then download another set to start.
 
Remember to that when you abort a task in BOINC it is put back in the Pool for someone else to run Un-Like Folding Tasks.
