LAF hit 50 million credits in 1 day 11/20

Well. Fun is over...


They updated the app twice over the last 24 hours. From 6.49 to 6.51....And the credits are back to CRAP!!

1.25 Cs for a ½ hour WU.....Not with my help!!!

Does it look like they are going to make a credit adjustment for the big payouts?

Not so far.

I have one big payout WU...It´s still there. I think the "accepted" the flaw, and adjusted credits with the new app.

Eksample:

App 6.49

22 Nov 2010 10:20:06 UTC 22 Nov 2010 10:58:36 UTC Completed and validated 2,285.79 2,250.46 170.95


App 6.51

23 Nov 2010 21:13:02 UTC 23 Nov 2010 21:54:23 UTC Completed and validated 2,457.61 2,425.13 16.88

I had a sizable cache of the 6.49 app tasks and still crunching them. I have the project set to nonework and aborted all 6.51 tasks. I got 50K on one 6.49 task yesterday. I hope they're too lazy to adjust the credits, like QMC when they screwed up.

Anybody get a mega-payout with the Branch B 6.46 app or should I abort those, too?

That was a quick shift in power. LA'F is now #1 with SG #2 and we are in 3rd. Maybe I should award 50M credits to all teams but LA'F in Collatz to make up for it.

That works for me. Maybe you could adjust your app in the next update so that it awards NEGATIVE credits to the Frenchies? Temporarily of course....... or not.

Or go crunch the crap out of cplan at 360 credits/thread/hour. Just don't be upset if they delete credits...

Well, it was fun while it lasted. My total just dropped back down to 10K. At least it's a milestone.
All non-in progress tasks aborted.

Still not sure if this thread belongs here in BOINC problems, or in the competition forum or somewhere else like general team planning or stradegy?

But related to the original subject about LAF's jump, seems they are still jumping and SG is now too out RAC'ing us by over 10 million a day. Besides the boost LAF gets from Malaria, LAF&SG seem to get a boost in DNETC and also a good pop from PrimeGrid over their normal RAC. I have a little time to notice these things but don't have the time to delve deeper but anyone have an idea of what's going on?

SG and LAF are strong on Nvidia cards. PG just released a CUDA app....I see Sic is also on the move...

We need to somehow make an effort on how to trigger new members....I see lnew members on the team, crunching on CPU only....I noticed one guy the other day with Nvidia GTX 495 doing only CPU...He could be pushing 100K with that card...!
