Ageless says it is simple, I don't see nothing simple in here but maybe you can try it.

You'd better not shout. You'd better not cry. You'd better not pout.....cause I'm telling you why. Shandia's bunkering on 5 multi-core computers this time. :) Good luck all!!!

Sad to add......my computers are leaking due to it being SETI@home and it's a tough one to nail the firewall down on. Going dark via non-existant proxy until it starts.

If your setting are set at maximum like they should be......there are two possibilities I can think of.
1. They ran out of work.
2. You haven crunched in a while and the first computer you chose to download SETI@home is a wee one. Been there, done that on other challenges and ended up totally screwing my best computers out of bunkering a solid week's worth.

If this does not fit you.........I'm out of ideas. I'll be lucky if I get through my wu's before it starts.

[Pope Dan]

Thanks Duke and Shandia,
it seems I am running up against a limit. Maybe there's nothing to do except wait till a couple days before to start bunkering.

work buffer is set to 20 days + an additional 10 but 2 days worth is about all I get, Though I should mention that is a couple hundred wu's.

Um......I have to wonder......I've found it impossible to put anything higher than 7 days in the buffer. Could BOINC be reading that as 2 days instead of 20?? Any thoughts from the audience??

[Pope Dan]

maybe... I use boinktasks, so maybe it let me set the buffer beyond boincs limits....testing...........

[Pope Dan]

changed to 7 day buffer. no change
200 s@h tasks seems to be my limit on those pcs.
will check again in the morning

Congrats to all who participated this year. Extra kudos for everyone who helped to push me to do as well as I did. Still a wee one on the team but slowly getting better. Thanks all for a good first test of the gear since my move. Looking forward to the next challenge!!!

Nice finish! If I had started a day or two earlier, I might have caught up (I'm SuperDave on SETI). You got lucky, this time ;)

If it was two days longer, you would of passed me. I had quite a few speed bumps that I had to deal with. Between leaking a bunker to having one computer decide it wouldn't crunch SETI GPUs after changing my virt setting in the bios. Not to mention the first few days, one computer that I neglected to check up on stopped crunching all together due to an update. Right now the only issues I have going into Collatz is the work units themselves and my bipolar computer is acting up. I'll get around to it tonight to see if I can get it to stop rebooting every few hours. (happy it's not doing it every few minutes like normal...mobo issues)
