The new FB year is under way. We recently moved up a couple spots.
Some new rules this year, the stats page looks a bit different.
https://formula-boinc.org/index_v2.py?year=2022&lang=&team=&thx=
There are a couple threads on their forum with the list of projects, the new rules and plan for the 2022 year.

    Odd I have been looking at League 2 and not seeing any data but now I see we are all in League 1 now.
    Our Team Link
    I still have to look at running PRIVATE GFN SERVER I forgot how that is
    Recent average credit 457.89 over n RakeSearch but there might be an error with the website being so very slow.

    Sounds like sprint projects are now being announced at the start of the sprint, as opposed to 24 hours prior. So no bunkering.

    It can stop me from changing over from one project to another without aborting the current ones running.
    Being that I am so close to my next badge on GPUGRID I really do not want abort the tasks that I do have now.
    Once the Sprint is announced I will set to not get any new tasks but I want to complete the ones that now have.

    the bunker-ers don't have much interest in GPUGRID with their 5-day deadlines, after 5 days they risk someone else beating them to the punch (it'll be marked as timeout and resent to someone else)
     
    these big BOINC teams (like XS, DPC, SBT, etc) are mostly after CPU projects since they have a lot of CPU resources, but not a terribly impressive GPU footprint, and GPUGRID doesn't have any CPU-only work.

    I got a similar message this morning……. I’m out!  


    Further more, until the sprint scoring is made clear, with full transparency and clarity, I’m out!

    I got a similar message this morning……. I’m out!  


    Further more, until the sprint scoring is made clear, with full transparency and clarity, I’m out! 


     


    This is how it is scored. I don't see where they are hiding anything, there is a thread on the FB website with all the new things they are trying to do to make everyone happy.
    A lot of people complained about bunkering and getting a head start on the sprints.
    Announcing the sprint at the start and splitting the sprint score into three days
    Winners everyday  then divided by three at the end.
     
    For sprints, points could be granted each day. Sprint points could be the average of points earned each days.
    For example Team A
    1st day : Ranking #5 =>10 points.
    2nd day : Ranking #5 => 10 points.
    3rd day : Ranking #1 => 25 points Sprint points : (10 + 10 +25)/3 => 15 points Team B 1st day : Ranking #1 => 25 points 2nd day : Ranking #1 => 25 points 3rd day : Ranking #2 => 18 points Sprint points : (25+25+18)/3 => 23 points
     
    Team B
    1st day : Ranking #1 => 25 points
    2nd day : Ranking #1 => 25 points
    3rd day : Ranking #2 => 18 points Sprint points : (25+25+18)/3 => 23 points

     

    I guess it would help stop bunkering to the last day and dropping all the tasks at once.
    It would be better off getting as many points everyday so you can place higher everyday.
    Then the points are divided by 3, which is the average of the three day challenge.
    They have to divide it by three, or the top teams would get 75 points if 1st place everyday.
     
     
    I suppose there maybe ties for a position, that could be considered a negative.
     

    If it turns out everyone does not like it, we can petition them to change it.
    I am not sure if this is for the whole year or just until the league splits into two or three leagues.

    It is also hard to wait for tasks that are taking more than a day to complete.
    I do not like the New FB as well.

    Don't think Rosetta was a very good choice for a Sprint in its current state...
