PrimeGrid: The Leap Day Challenge - "Just for Fun"

[RSS]

Four significant issues over the last six days in the run-up to the Leap Day Challenge has created so much havoc that it is prudent the Challenge be "changed". There are simply too many obstacles to overcome in such a short time span. Additionally, it is unknown when Nvidia will resolve the sleep issues related to the 295.73 driver. The Leap Day Challenge will still be offered, stats will be provided, but only on a "Just for Fun" basis. For more details about the issues and the effect this will have on the annual Challenge Series, please see this post (http://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=4093&nowrap=true#50717).

Redundancy? It's more like the Olympic Committee cancelling the Olympics because some athletes have bought new shoes that hurt their feet. The rest of the competitors can have a fun run instead. >:P

Was actually referring to this RSS item being posted twice because I saw it posted twice.

Time to go get coffee from the coffee pot in the kitchen. ~o)~o)

...and yes, I don't see much sense in switching over to a lower paying project for "fun". If you're that serious about boinc, your computer shouldn't even have a sleep mode.

Ah OK, didn't notice the redundant post :rolleyes: I'm with you about sleeping. I'm always looking at what gives the credit, what projects I prefer to crunch for, and what problems I have to deal with to do that. That gives me just enough time left for sleeping :!!
