Team China doesn't look all that small with 278 active members to our 61. The team that created the challenge is composed of just 1 too. This is a strange one you've booked us into CP

[Chicken Patty]

Just wanted to get us going with something. I'm keeping my eye out for other challenges.

Are we going to have to stop the Very Small Team Race in order to jump into the 7th Birthday Challenge?

No need to. Both challenges are based on points earned throughout all WCG projects. So points will count towards both competitions.

What about all your points? We could use all the help we can get.

I'm doing a 6900 (-bigadv) right now but when that is completed I will switch my last 12 treads to WCG.

No problem, I was late for a bit since my rigs were down. But I'm back at it now.

It's gonna be close, but do you guys think we can pass Ukraine before the end of the challenge?

Standings as of now:
5. Ukraine - 10,940,089
6. TechPowerUp! - 10,661,114

Our points for yesterday:

TechPowerUp! - 2,040,635
Ukraine - 1,256,619

Considering we are only 278,975 points behind and that we outdid them yesterday in points by 784,016 points, we should pass them by a good margin. What do you guys think?

Today's spotlight is on whether or not we can catch up to BOINC@Poland by the end of the challenge. Here's how it looks so far:

5 BOINC@Poland 12,853,366
6 TechPowerUp! 12,834,688

Just 18,678 points ahead. CRUNCH HARDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!

[Chicken Patty]

So far today we are outrunning BOINC@Poland by 10k points so far. Gotta keep pushing to finish in the top five!
