KWSN Orbiting Fortress

LanDroid

A brief summary of the choices:

KWSN can taunt everyone if we go for # 1 in Distributed Data Mining. This could happen around 3rd week of February if we maintain recent high production.

or

We could taunt Team Phoenix Rising in Docking. This may turn into a double-reverse untanut where we don't actually crunch any Docking WU's? We may need to retreat to the annex to figure this one out.

or

Crunch Rosetta. The only one of the three that has not been POTM plus we need medical points in the Vault very badly! As far as taunting, we're about 1.5 million behind Boinc@Australia. However, if we're behind a team down under, does that mean we're really on top?

I need to file a complaint! It only let me vote once on the first vote and I'm to lazy to make multiple accounts!

I think we need a tie breaker for the tie breaker #ni-1

Looks like Rosetta is the winner, but I just noticed the project has had a lot of problems the last two months. See info on their front page. Has Rosetta been running smoothly the last two weeks? Need quick answers...

Server status looks good, with 54K WU's ready to send...

We could run Rosetta Feb. 1-2 to check for problems.

Then run PrimeGrid Challenge Feb. 3-6 during which we can hold a tie-breaker tie-breaker between DDM and Docking if warranted.

BEWARE DOCKING.

I've had a few shrubbers on Docking for the last week or so, and there seem to be problems with some WUs on some machines, where they run, but don't show any progress and need aborting; I've wasted well over 100 core-hours so far, so set them all to no work and aborted any unstarted.

They know about the problem, and it seems that this is the second or third outbreak (incomplete input files, which means that the WU can never complete).

Just something to bear in mind.

Thanks for the warning.

It amazes me how little communication there is from the project scientists when things like this occur, the hours wasted plus who knows how many people give up participating altogether.
