There should be details/links in the OP for getting started in crunching or folding for TPU

3 hrs until GO time!

We need to make sure some of our part timers like @15th Warlock know that the challenge is starting soon. How should we do that?

SirKeldon · Feb 25, 2015

My 2 engines are on, my dear Norton! :pimp:

@peche JOIN!!!! At least some hours per day!!! For me challenges are not as important in competition/prizes as the part that moves ppl to crunch for a common effort the same week/2 weeks to finish with an incredible number of PPD, sometimes those numbers are even higher than a whole month. I mean, I do like to be helping when crunching but it's even better when it's not just about the crunch game, it's also like a special event where you're happy to be and to participate, every contribution is appreciated, even the smallest one. I wasn't crunching since a year ago ... but these last weeks it all changed and I also got more motivated to continue because of the challenge. Maybe I won't be folding/crunching so long after these days, but I'll do my best, and that's the spirit, to help, more or less. Think in this way, better to crunch 1 day per year than no crunch ever, vamos viejo! :toast:

I'm not sure how to do it. Seems that somehow the BOINC Manager refuses to upload until Challenges start.... :confused:

Weird how it knows to do that.

krusha03 · Feb 25, 2015

Lol i tried it with my fx put 1 day worth of work in the buffer and it did it before the end of the day hahaha I think it's because i did now 6 threads instead of the usual 5

BUCK NASTY · Feb 25, 2015

The 4p will barely have enough work to do as my internet is "miraculously restored" at 7PM EST(damn you Comcast :laugh:

). I was a little late adjusting my buffer yesterday, so it's very, very close. I wish I could count the WU waiting to be uploaded, but it's like counting a large jar of jelly beans!

:toast:

Go TPU WCG Team!

peche · Feb 25, 2015

Come on, Counting Jelly Beans is easy! You just start with one,....and when they're gone, there's none! So, you either have a bowl with one in it or none! :roll:

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
