WCG-TPU's Fall Challenge planning thread

manofthem · Oct 12, 2015

I'm in for the challenge but will likely have to downscale a little afterwards. Funds have been tight, and I could use a little break in the power bill, at least for a little while.

That said, I'm looking forward to the Challenge. I'll be asking my brother for his 4670k to run for the duration; he's usually cool with it :cool:

Working on finalizing some of the prizes for the challenge thread

[Ion] - Would you be able to keep the challenge thread updated?

Yeah, absolutely! Just a running count of the team scores or are you looking for something else too?

Thinking a snapshot of the day's results/challenge totals from either the Top 20-25 Teams or all Teams, whichever you think would work best?

So what is eveyone running? Still doing all projects or have some kicked over to FAAH2.

I think my rigs are running FAAH2 currently.

OET on the Linux systems; mix of MCM and FAAH2 on the few Windows * systems remaining. This beta has been promising so I'll probably add FAAH2 back into the mix for the 'nix ones this week, pending an announcement from the techs that production WUs are fixed

I'm game for the challenge, but I don't think I can compete with the lot of you running multiple rigs 24/7. I'll run mine as much as I can though, as I have been since I started crunching
