We passed Free Tibet and Poland in the past few days, currently in 19th place. The town of Litomysl in Czech Republic will fall in the next few hours... |

Those two never stood a chance against us. We care more about yoyo tricks than them.

I'm beginning to get concerned... I have two WUs I have been on for
several hours now. These Yoyo-OGRs have probably been running for
almost a day. (Shows around 8 1/2 hrs each because of how I set my
options) Doesn't even show a hundredth of ONE percent! I'd
hate to think I'm doing this for some 'Yoyo' project and may
not get anything but a couple failed WUs!
Is there cause for concern here? Thx in advance!
Well, all of my WUs are completed and I'm ready for the PrimeGrid Challenge, EXCEPT... These two Yoyo WUs, which STILL show no progress at ALL... If there's nothing by the start of the Challenge I'm really thinking of aborting them! (I already completed three others...) _________________

I don't recall an OGR WU failing on me and some of them can take a long while. The only WU's I've had trouble with are Evo's that don't seem to understand that once they pass 100% they should be finished. _________________

These are the known problems with evo...I have had them run up to 125%, but all have validated... _________________

Well, that post of the thirteenth is still applicable. Here we are on the sixteenth and absolutely NO progress on either WU. I say SOMETHING is amiss here... Two days til PrimeGrid. I'm hoping someone can tell me how to verify SOMETHING is happening... Otherwise, I'm losing a lotta clock-ticks that could be spent on Enigma, or SETI even!
Update: Found these...

Both these have page after page of this... How should I handle this situation? I have nothing 'Suspended' on my BOINC... It says 'Running'... _________________

Well if the hole is for the carburetor, valve covers, or exhaust and so forth it's a good thing, otherwise I suspect not.  |
