Got my first and probably only ( for the foreseable future) WUprop badge.

My snail carrying schistosoma turned gold from silver.
Nice! I especially like the WCG badges.
Yes they do! A lot of the sub projects currently are out of work!One WUProp Bronze Star turned Silver --->
Now things get progressively harder....
In my run to 100 projects ... I'm not there yet, I found something interesting. There are 4 NCI projects (3 quake reporting and 1 radioactivity) that require sensors. They WILL run without sensors AND WuProp will record the time just like if you had sensors. Obviously you will never generate any credit for your work but you will get the time for WuProp. On the projects that I don't want to show up on my main account I've been running them under a different account. WuProp doesn't care what account the projects are under.
Ah! That never occurred to me, as I crunch those naturally, and already have those in blue. But good tip!]
FWIW, I have 155 apps with time. 122 with color (>100 hours), which is 6 hypothetical stars. But seriously, there are at least 50 projects with work, and about 100 apps with work too.
That is if you have Windows, Linux, Darwin, and GPUs at your disposal. If all you have is Windows there isn't enough to get to 100 right now. Some of your projects like Physics that has 8 subprojects is down, RNA only has 1 sub now etc etc. For days I've been grabbing everything that comes up and I'm still short ... very close but short
Thanks
With the WCG GPU project winding down I may do that but I'll be powering down most of the machines for the summer so it will take a while. I need to get another Nvidia GPU so I can up the badges at GPUGrid.
You'll never know what you're living for until you know what you're willing to die for.
UPDATE:
There are actually 4 Quake reporting projects ... I forgot La Red de Atrapa Sismos and there is the radioactivity project as well. So there are 5 projects that are non-computer intensive and you DON'T have to have sensors to run them.
After getting them all to 100 hours and qualifying them on WuProp I tried an experiment. You can run ALL 5 projects simultaneously without a problem and they use very little CPU power. So for those wanting to change color of their stars these are MUST RUN projects (IMHO)
When you get the hours to where you want them on one of the projects just ABORT the WU and then UPDATE the project. WuProp moves the hours from pending to valid hours run when the WU is reported ... it doesn't care if the WU finished normally or was aborted - it only cares if it was reported.
4 quake projects? That's news to me. What is the 4th?UPDATE:
