KWSN Orbiting Fortress

Sir Furry Mark · Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 6:06 am Post subject: Norwegian Blues

Team Norway are about to overtake us in DPAD/MUON, which will cost us many valuable DC Vault points Shocked

(More than) A little help would be appreciated here! Sad

New users are welcome (please remember to prefix your username with [KWSN] to make sure your points go to the team). No password or E-Mail is required. Project details at http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/.
Can co-exist well with many BOINC projects provided you aren't already memory limited (I'm running it alongside ABC at the moment).

Any existing DPADders please look down the back of your sofa for any results caches you might have forgotten to send. I'm going to delve around at Castle Furry to see what I've got in the nether dungeons.

Anyone know if Dr. Vornoff if is busy at the moment? Much as I hate the idea of falling further behind him (her? it? Rolling Eyes

) the team really needs some help now!!!

My Master, the Great and Good Doctor Vornoff has bade me pass on a message.

Viz:
Vell, gentelmens. You seem to hav got yourselfs into a pikle on zis one, hav you not?

But Fortune smells on ze viked; it is your good luck zat I, Vornoff, am in the final stages ov preparating a truly earth-shatterink scientific pepper outlining the results of my Grande Research, so although I typ very fast, my vord process uses a great proportions ov the vaste power of die Hex Machina not.

Zo. For a short time only, I put the might of ze Hex Machina at your dispersal, to schrubb die partikle accelerometer.

I trust that your approval zis meetink.
===============================

So, at my Master's instruction, I have started some machines on MUON DPAD, and hope that this will be enough to assist your aims.

By the way... I don't suppose there's the slightest chance that you've any new female members in need of a good ravishing...

Stuck out here in the desert at Doctor Vornoffs facility, I haven't managed much in the way of practice recently.....

In just 3 days from scratch , Dr Vornoff has pumped 11,000,000 points into Muon for KWSN !! Makes my 1 week Muon race with ZeeGiestGuy (Seti USA) earlier this year sink into mediocrity Embarassed

(And each of us both then outproduced every other world contributor during that 7 day race - Dr Vornoff has OUTPRODUCED both of our scores COMBINED in just 3 days Shocked

) .
Bloody Hell !

Give the Dr a PGGB !!!

Greetings, Gentlemen.

I must apologise for the parsity of scoring in the MUON project. I'm afraid that only a small, fairly inconsequential, proportion of the Hex Machina could be applied to this end, as the Good Doktor still has many projects of his own proceeding apace.

Please be kind enough to inform me when you have "finished with engines".

I'd say the good Doktor has given us a LOT of 'Breathing Room', and I see online Herr Doktor has some six DOZEN Shrubbers, and half are Multi-core! Sigh... - I hope someday to have one TENTH of Das Komputenmachinen power! Wouldn't you?

TY, Herr Doktor V (Et Al), TY VERY VERY Much!

Update :

The Good Dr Vornoff is averaging OVER 3,000,000 points/day in Muon , and has contributed OVER 22,000,000 points in the last 7 days Shocked

. How long will this last , he has EXCEEDED KWSN's expectations by a factor (mumble - mumble - take off sock - 11 ?)
Crickey !!
KWSN is now only 5 days away from overtaking Xtreame in Muon !!

Well the good Dr got us up 1 place in Muon , enough points to re-overtake Xtreame for position 5 in the Vault (which KWSN lost today for 4 hrs Rolling Eyes

) ,
and stave off Norway in Muon .

His average for the last 13 days has been over 3,000,000 a day , and has been the number one prodcer WORLDWIDE for the last 2 weeks Shocked

, outperforming his nearest Competitor (AMD.Borg - team Anandtech - number 1 in the world) by 1,500,000 a day Shocked

.

And there I was expecting a 2,000,000 point "Boost" last month Very Happy

Dr Vornoff has contributed OVER 42,000,000 points since SFM's call for help Shocked

.

KWSN owes a big THANKS to whoever he/she is .

Many Many thanks Dr Vornoff .

Dr.V has w-a-y exceeded my expectations!!! Many many thanks! (of course the chance of me ever being No.1 on the team is now infinitesimally small Rolling Eyes

)

By the way, has anyone noticed that the Dr.'s assistant's avatar and signature have suddenly stopped working? Hope they didn't get sucked into a black hole coming out of the LHC Laughing

Greetings Good kNi!ghts.

The Good Herr Doktor Vornoff sends his apologies, but he is afraid that the little excursion into DPAD must now be curtailed, although he is pleased that your initial objectives have now been met.

His offer of a portion of the Hex Machina having been accepted some time ago, he is delighted that data is now flowing from the Large Hadron Kollider, so extraneous and frivolous activities must now cease.

He is also rather pleased that this gives him the opportunity to not overtake his good friend Dr Steven Brooks in his own project.

While the Hex Machina will undoubtedly be a trifle stretched once meaningful data starts being produced by the LHC, there will no doubt be periods when his own research will allow a little "shrubbing" for the kNi!ghts, so if you feel the need, any request will be treated sympathetically, depending on the demands of the moment.

My Avatar did indeed suffer at the hands of the LHC - much shuffling of data occured, but the link has now been re-established.

Wishing the KWSN the best of Shrubbing for the future.

I looked at DPAD/Muon awhile back, then spotted LHC

Since both have something to do with the collider, isn't our time best spent on the LHC (since that one's BOINC)?

Noo-B wants to know...
