Bah! I'll humbly accept the congrats, but "2nd place" is just another way of saying "first loser" :)

But I'll happily take second place when someone as gracious as Mr. Hankey took first!

WTG Mr. Hankey & Mumps. A great One Two punch. Congrats and Mega Thanks to everyone who put forth cycles to make this happen.

Now, how about a repeat for 2011!!! Did you forget the smiley or are you (or we) serious about that?

I was trying to list off the SETIUSA team members on the final individual list and recognized only 24 or so names. I also didn't see some names I expected like DrPop, Maxwell, etc. I also probably missed a few names that are team members. Does someone want to review the list before posting? I'm also willing to post the list and make(edit in) changes if people PM me.

I also want to mention the #2 USA team in the competition: The US Navy finished 16th with a score of 1,019.

Oh, I'm totally serious about a repeat. Just not sure of what the others want. Remember there are many team members that are more interested in getting this team back to the top of the food chain and PG challenges make that harder to do. Its up to the group. If we can come to a consensus on primary, secondary and tertiary team goals, that would help members/volunteers decide where to put their bits and bytes.

I did the following in 2010;
347, 387, 431, 324, 285, 280, 359, 385, and 1144.

That last challenge was the only one that GPU's could be used. So you (and me too) got creamed by those folks that have lots more of those than we have CPU's. :)

The overall for all 9 challenges or just the last challenge?
The overall placement most of did not get on the list, since it
was for the top X number of people.

For the last challenge, you should have been there somewhere.
I went to the listing for the last challenge, then I used by brower's
"edit>find option" to find my account user name for BOINC "Tim Lungstrom".

Here is the list of 27 SUSA team members who earned any challenge points this year and appeared in PG's final individual list for 2010 (http://www.primegrid.com/challenge/challenge.php). To earn any individual points one had to finish among the top 100 individuals on ANY of the 9 challenges this year. If I missed anyone let me know and I'll add them here or repost the list.

NOTE: I did this list to recognize the contributions of SUSA team members to this year's effort. I was tempted to including other people who temporarily helped us but left them off if I thought they earned points under the same user account while crunching for their primary teams. This isn't meant to upset anyone and I'll change it if people want. I could also add the actual number of points earned but didn't think that was as important here.

This was mainly an all out effort for this one year. We can still be a presence in the competiton just because of who we are and that PG is giving some pretty good credits these days and it looks like PG could be the team's next 1 Billion mega milestone but I think our role in the competition would be more as a spoiler. IMHO and 2 cents.

It was one hell of a team/group effort though in 2010. :cool:

Yep. That's me! I got bored with my name, so I started changing them for the challenges...

+1 here. The PG challenges keep interfering with what I want to do, so I'm going to retire from them. I want to start hitting my MM goals a bit harder than I have of late.

I think it might be interesting if the team does take an interest of taking the '11 gold in PG, the challenges are normally short (longest was 13 days) and I don't see how they take away from crunching people personal projects too much to spend the few days it would take to make Seti.Germany squeal. That in itself is why I participate ;D

We need a trophy case/room to put team banners for display, including those from the past.
Anyone still have that go;d fish post that I hear so much about?

The old team project banner pages are still up if you are interested though I realize this is not what you are asking for.
