1 HOUR TO GO!!!!

Start your engines!!!
Happy crunching and folding :D :toast:
 
Thought it's 00:00 UTC - thus 1 hour

Fixed, sometimes I forgot i'm in UTC+1 ... maybe it's the excite for the challenge lol :p
 
If I remember correctly, which is hardly ever, when you pass 100,000 BOINC points, you are awarded the Cruncher Badge. :rolleyes:
That's correct. But sometimes you just don't get it. Ask @Knoxx29 for example :P
 
I passed the 100.000 days ago and till today i have not Badge :-)

Note: and funny is that after I passed the 100.000 I haven't passed anymore :-)

Patience, Butterfly, all good things take time....:laugh:
 
Seems like it. Go to view -> advanced view then you can see how many tasks you are running, estimated time etc. Also in tools -> computing preference you should set your CPU time to 100% because that's how it's done during a challenge :p
can you post a screenshot just for compare and learn
:D
 
Trying to setup BOINC Client in one of my 2 linux servers with no graphics environment, let's see how it goes, if I succeed and in both computers temps can hold, count 8 more threads for the challenge :D

I'm gonna be LOADED, and since I'm not now, I better remember my keys. Or, I'll be LOCKED out of my place!

:toast:
;)
 
In to help as you knew already.
 
Yay!!!! 8 more threads you can count in!!! Both linux servers are working and apparently holding temperatures, i'll re-check in a few hours but final count for this challenge atm:

Intel Core i5 2500K @ 4.41 GHz (4 threads)
Intel Xeon CPU E3-1225 V2 @ 3.20GHz (4 threads)
Intel Core2Quad Q8200 @ 2.33 GHz (4 threads)
Intel Atom N2800 @ 1.86 GHz (4 threads)

A true 4x4 lol :toast:
 
Commencing WU dump. Got down so low on WU's that only 16 of 48 cores had work(33% CPU usage).
