WCG goes by cpu time for badges. The only project I know of that does. It's kinda kool that way cuz you can throw an older machine on it and earn a badge in the same time as a new fast machine. That works if your a badge hooe....
So let's say your running 4 threads on one machine,.. In 24 hours, that machine will do 4 days of cpu time.
14 days of cpu tme gets the bronze.
I'm accepting Ebola only and I have about half my threads on it.Quote:

If you start with an untrusted computer and load up the cache then all WU you loaded will need a wingman. You want to keep the cache size very small until you have the 5 validated WU and then you can open it up.
For some reason, I am finally getting Ebola WU's just now.
Ding!

As far as I can tell, Z is the only SUSA member with the 2Yr Ebola badge as of now. Anyway, Sphynx probably doesn't know this, but we are in a race to see who can be the 2nd team member to 2 Years on Ebola first :p I'm a few thousand hours ahead but he's outproducing me... could come down to the wire. Good luck Al! :cool:
Thanks! Got the red one this morning https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.or.../pb/oet1_3.jpg
I love an internal challenge. Let's see if I can coax a bit more out of my computers.
Congrats on the badges, I am working on some PG and WCG now.
Don't friends count? :DQuote:
