    Thanks for the heads up. I see a few of my machines got work, but most did not.

    And as always, be careful about whacking that "Update" button as Pirates doesn't like that.

    I have two machines running at this point and it looks
    like I am getting 2 at a time on my quad core [running PG
    till I get my 1 million credits soon], and one at a time on
    my dual core [running DNETC since PG runs too hot for it].
    I was holding at 1253 credits since October, but now at about
    1335 since the last BOINC manager update. That is not many
    credits since I joind Pirates in July of '09.

    There is still a lot of communication deffered for this project, though.

    Since it's a new year and the join date looks cool, I joined Pirates today and got a few WU's. If it'll keep spitting out work I'll hook in a few other PC's.

    I've been getting some WU's on my PC's recently, just pushed past 1000. Now if only orbit would start sending work.

    Do it for the team. ARG!!

    Work is so sporadic on this project and given out so slowly (only a few at a time as in no caching) therefore hard to get that everyone should attach to the project to get a few WU's. When asked for the project URL, enter: http://pirates.spy-hill.net/

    SG is 1K up on us on RAC and we're in first by only 20K but we're almost 600K from a valuable 1 million Mega Milestone. So get em while they're there.

    Mumps, what's your secret to getting so many credits? Sheer number of PC's? If one had a virtual setup on their PC they could run Pirates there and get more WU's?

    Get your Pirates work while it lasts!

    Edit: This is the Hello app.
