Anyone know how LAF "suddenly" got 20 million on Malaria Control yesterday? At least according to Free-DC:
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?p...ce+Francophone
Also seems points per day at Malaria jumped the last two days, dramatically.

If it's X-mas over there should we get in on it? Or is it just an epidemic?

I'm hoping they don't do a very good job of adjusting everyone's credit. They can skip mine and I wouldn't mind. Maybe they'll only adjust the obvious ones. :-bd

Wow, I wish I had been running one of those boxes or two or three.... Looks like they are going to be making an adjustment though.
LOL Sez the person who has his hands full with a giant rat. :-"Quote:

Well. Fun is over...
They updated the app twice over the last 24 hours. From 6.49 to 6.51....And the credits are back to CRAP!!
1.25 Cs for a ― hour WU.....Not with my help!!!
Does it look like they are going to make a credit adjustment for the big payouts?
Not so far.Quote:

Eksample:
App 6.49
22 Nov 2010 10:20:06 UTC 22 Nov 2010 10:58:36 UTC Completed and validated 2,285.79 2,250.46 170.95
App 6.51
23 Nov 2010 21:13:02 UTC 23 Nov 2010 21:54:23 UTC Completed and validated 2,457.61 2,425.13 16.88
I had a sizable cache of the 6.49 app tasks and still crunching them. I have the project set to nonework and aborted all 6.51 tasks. I got 50K on one 6.49 task yesterday. I hope they're too lazy to adjust the credits, like QMC when they screwed up.
Anybody get a mega-payout with the Branch B 6.46 app or should I abort those, too?
That was a quick shift in power. LA'F is now #1 with SG #2 and we are in 3rd. Maybe I should award 50M credits to all teams but LA'F in Collatz to make up for it. :D
That works for me. Maybe you could adjust your app in the next update so that it awards NEGATIVE credits to the Frenchies? Temporarily of course....... or not.Quote:

All non-in progress tasks aborted.
Still not sure if this thread belongs here in BOINC problems, or in the competition forum or somewhere else like general team planning or stradegy?
But related to the original subject about LAF's jump, seems they are still jumping and SG is now too out RAC'ing us by over 10 million a day. Besides the boost LAF gets from Malaria, LAF&SG seem to get a boost in DNETC and also a good pop from PrimeGrid over their normal RAC. I have a little time to notice these things but don't have the time to delve deeper but anyone have an idea of what's going on?
SG and LAF are strong on Nvidia cards. PG just released a CUDA app....I see Sic is also on the move...Quote:

Question on the PG app: I saw some of the posts about the PG app, is that for the sub-project that the last Challenge will be run on? If so, then that could be a big factor against us.Quote:

You are correct, and that huge factor against us is part of the reason we're helping out TM at WCG - so they can pull off for 3 days and help us at PG. I don't think we have much CUDA power on our team. Don't often need it, but this time...
True. It just happens to be that Ati offers the best credit/performance/powerusage now a days - which is why most people buy it.Quote:

Is there a FAQ on GPU crunching on this new board yet? There have been various well written posts on them over the year(s) but they get a bit lost in the boards to use as a reference.Quote:

The conspiracy theorist in me :) smells a setup over there at PG with SG. Sucking in LAF and Sic. for the last round will screw with the year's challenge pattern in the critical last round. We already have to deal with Puzzle and Shanky influence.
Yes. Check it out. And if you have suggestions, join the FAQ Building group and make them...Quote:
