Surely 2 months of crunching for the same POTM takes the edge out of it...
Poem will be a good POTM too in my opinion, we have some places to catch there, WU are small (about 2 hours) and this project is completely l00neiy, what else do we need?

I think that sums it up very nicely. Poem gets my vote

They tried to make me take Poetry in college.
If Poem involves clouds, flowers, warm breezes & other Foo-Foo crap like that, I'm OUT

That's why if we do it, we should have people also running the non-boinc version of the individual projects in at least equal numbers to yoyo so that we don't give retchenkraft points to pass us with.
Malaria control is currently running test units and may be back in full production soon.
Sudoku may be silly but it is in the vault |
Does running yo-yo in Boinc help retchenkraft regardless of which yo-yo app you run, or only in some of them? Why does this happen?

Apparently they created the Wrapper and they get the credit in Boinc apps regardless of what team you are on.
It is a Untold Scandal as far as I'm concerned.

Did anyone report BOINC about it? I think it's something they should know...

Oh, They are aware of it.
I guess that their opinion is that since Rottencraft made it easier for people to do those non-Boinc project that they should benefit. Kinda takes the "Open" out of open Architecture, in my opinion....

So, there is a team for YOYO - boinc, but the stats for the individual projects within yoyo (OGR, evolution@home, Muon etc...) are going to team rechenkraft...
That's so wrong... 
I wonder how we're so much ahead of them in the vault...

Perhaps we should have Simon embed code into the Chicken app that gives KWSN all the points generated with that 
Seems fair to me....at least by the Wrapper standard......

Ouch. I recently bought two. One is the Antec Earthwatt 650 and the other is a Corsair CMPSU-650TX 650W. Very happy with both and they have plenty of power for those 9800's. I've had a GSX 260 and a 9600GSO running on the Corsair since the first of the month without a hitch.

yeah, yoyo is kind of a scam so it would have to stay balanced.
Say you crunched muon in yoyo.
you would get points in yoyo in boinc
Rech would get points in muon for that same work
That's why I was saying if we do yoyo, we need volunteers to balance it.
If we have 10 cores crunching yoyo on a specific subproject, say muon again, then we should also get 10 cores crunching muon directly.
I don't care how Rech does compared to other teams, but this is the only way to get us points in both without giving them a leg up on us.
BAH HUMBUG!

The Antec Earthwatt 650 is what I came home with. $89.00
I bought 3 Coolmax 500W as spares. One I put in my 3rd sons build a month ago, Barton 2500+ with a 8600Gt and One I fried today. I took the unopened one and the fried one back to Microcenter and got a $65.00 refund.
They told me I could not return the fried one as I got them 6 weeks ago, Then they looked at my account and gave me my money 
Luckily I didn't fry the board, chip or card.

I've always had good service from Microcenter. Might just head that way tomorrow.
