4. BOINC PENTATHLON 2013 - Public Forum
http://www.seti-germany.de/stats/pen...athlon2013.png
:) Hello Team SETI.USA,
:) Hello Friends from Team SETI.USA.
Team SETI.Germany continues it's new invented challenge and invites all BOINC-Teams to participate in the 4.rd BOINC PENTATHLON, following the ideals of the ancient Pentathlon.
It will start May the 5th 2013 (00:00 UTC) and will end May the 18th 2013 (23:59 UTC).
Like in the ancient Greece, the Pentathlon will be held in 5 disciplines. That means within 14 days the participants will have to crunch 5 different projects, all of them for a period of 5 days. That said, you can easily see that some projects will have to be crunched at the same time.
Each team that would like to participate has to sigh up : http://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pen...g.php?&lang=en until April the 27. th 2013. Like in the last year the favourites in the different disciplines can be chosen by every team on their own. The project that gaines the most voices will be crunched.
A list of the projects that can be chosen from can be found here : http://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pen...sciplines.html , but you can also suggest other projects. (But before suggesting other projects, please check if the project and/or their servers would be able to withstand the combined BOINC forces. We do not want to bring any project server down.)
More information can be found here : http://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pen...n_Welcome.html
New Rules 2013
1. All disciplines are now 5 days announced before the start (no longer 1 week)
2. 1 of the five disciplines is a marathon discipline. It is calculated over the entire pentathlon (or until no longer work units available). The scoring is the same with the other disciplines.
In the last year it was very exciting until the end.

We will be there for sure there are many calls and more than a thread on the forum about BOINC PENTATHLON 2013.
I hope I can have some fun as the last year (2012). It was quite a good event.

Re: 4. BOINC PENTATHLON 2013
Hey there SEARCHER, tell us more about the marathon discipline. Hopefully it won't be something boring like WuProp or FreeHal. I remember in the 2nd Pentathlon when FreeHal was picked for some reason. It was really boring and caused alot of people to lose interest.
Re: 4. BOINC PENTATHLON 2013
:) Good Morning and Hello John P.,
the marathon discipline is top secret. For all participating team `s.
But I can tell you, it will be a very stable and well-maintained project.
John no one is perfect, but we learn from our mistakes and try to improve every year.
You know for sure that we will do our best.
