Welcome Wolf! We'll talk about your initiation ceremony later.

Go to the home page of the project you're crunching and look for something like this. Click the teams link.
Do a search for "Crunching @ EVGA" and you should be offered a "join this team" option.

Thanks for the welcome.
That doesn't seem to work at the GpuGrid web site.
It has a link by were it says Team: none but clicking it typing in the name returns nothing.
No matter what you type it still returns nothing and you also can't pick were your from, Like say USA.
I just removed GPUGrid until I can figure this out, no since in the points going no where but under my name.

Wolf easiest way I have found to start new projects is.!top right hand corner click view click simple view.2 Click New Projects box will pop up.Leave it at Attach to project then hit next.Pick what project you want to crunch,Next.It takes you though it step by step.
Hope this helps you

That's just what I did 3 times already and still no way to pick what team you want to work with.
This is what I end up with, no team under team name, no way at my accout to correct this.

Interesting that it may be  a problem with the GPUGrid site.
I was using Collatz as my example because that's the only GPU project I'm running at the moment. And on that topic, I got 600k points today running a few mid range gpu;s for 15-18 hours. Wassup with that project anyhoo? I'd love to know what a 680 or 780 could pull down in 24 hours crunching a mix of Mini Collatz and Solo Collatz units. Any testers out there?

PrimeGrid set up and worked perfect with team join and all so its just there site so far that I've had problems with.
Is Collatz better for GPU folding with this cruching stuff?
Still having a few problems getting around and understanding the points system or were to look to see how I'm doing. lol
 
Edit: BTW is there some way for other team members to send a invite to join the team with different projects???
Someone sent me a PM with a invitie to join there team "wasn't 1 of you guys" I didn't accept.
But that might be a way to get around the problem for now??...

Hey your on the stats sheet @ Free-DC!
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=team&proj=pgrid&team=2511
I'll look into the invite deal tomorrow.
 
Collatz and PrimeGrid are math projects, and offer gpu work. GpuGrid is medical so if that's where your heart is, we'll get you going there soon.

Working WCG and PG projects at the moment.
Is that stat combined scores or just for PG?
Thanks for all the help guys!

Well now, I can't believe I over looked this thread. Most of you know who I am by now and what my goals are for concerning Distributed Computing. But I will explain it all again just because I like talking about it. Just ask my friends and family. I honestly think they groan when I walk into a room during a family get together since DC is one of my favorite subjects.
 
First off why am I involved with doing DC projects? Simple, call it self interest if you will. My fathers side of the family are prone to Alzheimer's and heart conditions. My mothers side is prone to Cancer and heart conditions mainly blood flow disorders. As a young child I watched my maternal Grandfather and Grandmother suffer through years of cancer. In my teenage years I watch my paternal Grandfather decline with Alzheimer's and my Grandmother fight through several heart attacks. It left a big impression on me. Now my Father is fighting Alzheimer's in a battle he can't ever win. I personally am dealing with Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). In short my hearts built in pace maker is not working right. I have rapid changes of blood pressure resulting in dizziness, severe headaches, numbness, and fainting in extreme cases. POTS is often misdiagnosed as MS because the symptoms are just about the same.
 
As you can imagine I am focused on any DC project that involves heath issues. Right now I am doing tasks for POEM@Home and GPU Grid. Once I reach my goal of getting into the top ten for the team in Poem I am looking at branching out into other medical projects. Rosetta is probably going to be my next focus. Sooner or later I would like to have done tasks and moved up the ranks to the top twenty for our team for all the projects that involve medical research.
 
I am currently running Boinc on my i5-3570k GTX 680 gaming system and a i7 2670QM laptop. I also have a older Core Duo system with a GTX 550 in it I keep hoping to revive for crunching. It has CPU cooling issues and I am of the mind its not worth spending money to fix. I keep thinking I am just going to give up and pull the GPU out of it and toss it in my gaming system to do GPU Grid tasks.
 
With all that being said about my personal goals, I am more than willing to stop what I am doing and jump into other projects when the team needs me for contests or some other kind of goal. Just give me a heads up and I will be there.
