Those aren't the same thing. Taking a #1 at any of those would require constant effort and commitment to keep it (maybe not even possible). With this project, it requires no effort to keep, freeing us up to work on other projects.

I understand. ;) I guess my subtle dry humor slipped through the cracks. This project and those others are leagues apart. I was truly only jesting about taking on PG or something of that nature - it is not possible at the moment. Someday, but not now. :) I will be donating my cores to the cause a while longer yet, it does seem like we are achieving your goal! %%-
This is the kind of thinking I like to see. Crush them all, take the number one position AND KEEP IT FOREVER! This is a moment of true GLORY for the Team! This could be a very good omen for S.USA. With all the upgrades that some members have been doing, the stones piling up, commendatory congratulations should be given to all members that are participating on this project in it's final days.
Now for me being the credit ho I am, I really have no idea why I'm crunching this project, but somehow it just feels good (much like Joker's Mom, as Max will attest to) and I'm gonna hang on to the end of it and see this project through. I'll be a first for me and that makes it extra special. I hope for those that are willing to do the same, they feel that speciality (<--Note new word) in this that I do. TEAM ON!
Quick!.....Someone give me one of them beers that's so huge, there's NO WAY a person could possibly finish it!
Maxwell has his 100K MM so I'm switching to Trigggl.
Unless of course Mumps needs a hand to take #1 on the project from B^S.
EDIT: That sounds good NJ - I just got the heads up from Max that he is happy, so I will be over to Trig's with you soon. ;)
All my sarcastic comments and dry humor about poor credits aside, I am very impressed with the TEAM on this. Thank you all for coming together.:-bd
Thanks everyone for the help!
I did have to update the default preferences, since I normally don't use them. I don't know why the defaults are set to be so useless. I changed it to not suspend GPU, allow 8 cores (instead of 1), got rid of the 25% rule and re-enabled image file verification.
Thanks for the help guys! I've reached 100k. Who can we help next? Is there time?

I'm just about at 1k for this project and once I get there, good riddance. I've had tons of problems with this and basically wasted a an entire machine for 24hrs to just get 1k. :( I'm not sure where the problem lies, but about 1-2 of every 10 tasks bugs out and never completes. It continues to take up a thread until aborted. Normal completion is about 10 minutes. I woke to find most of my threads running for hours on the same tasks, effectively taking them out of rotation for new tasks. Being an [MM] requires patience.
Maybe i'm just cranky.
The project had a batch of bad wu's. Sounds like you got most of them :(
There could be a problem with your project files. If you want to give it another shot abort all I@H wu's and do a manual update, shut down BOINC, find the Ideologies folder and delete it and then restart BOINC.
Actually, I checked and my tasks were not in the prueba2xxxxx range. They were all prueba5... and prueba6... tasks. Most would complete, but about 1 in 10 would not. I found a ton of the ideologias worker_0.21 and wrapper_0.21 processes running for no reason. I'm assuming that they were the aborted tasks processes. Perhaps a win7|64bit bug?
Anyways, I've got my 1k and don't think I can get to 10k, so no worries. Even the smallest milestone is better than none.
I'm working on both [mm] and badge acquisition at the moment only on 1 pc due to the heat here (about 102 F).
I do appreciate the help, which I will use the next time I run into a similar issue. Thanks! :)

And you got past that Maxwell guy too.:P
So what next? I'm inclined to move away from Ideologias now unless someone else needs to reach a reachable MM/goal. It would be nice to reach a Team 2.5 MM but I'm thinking there's not enough WU's or motivation to do so (we need about 3 days at current rates to do this).
So I'll be heading back to better paying CPU projects like PG, Prima and Aqua for a month or so.
Well, it looks like the admin recreated those bad WU's. 29xxxx range is being distributed now and they seem to be working fine this time.
That does mean we've got another 10K of WU's added to the pile. So another day to crunch for goals.
Seems like they ran out of WU's. Damn, just missed my 10k there.:(
No luck, I'm about 400+ points from 10k. I'll get it next time. ;)
I'd like to thank Maxwell for helping me to pass Maxwell.
As of 07.03.11

Phase II completed / Completada Fase II
Today we have completed all calculations required for this second set of WU. There will be no more work available until analysis of the results is completed.
