Sir Breezy, I think you overestimate guru's shrubs, or underestimate their math skills. Surely the fact we've shrubbed 5 1/2 million more URLs today alone hasn't gone unnoticed. I know the 110 million more we've shrubbed over the last month may be beyond even your mighty math skills to comprehend (nobody has that many toes, even you) so perhaps guru has gotten confused as to the rate of our advance. We are masters of the one-legged charge, after all!

Sir Jer of Washington,

#ni-2

Crunchies have a 400 million shrub lead on us Sad

. That's 66 freakin' days of shrubbing at our present rate assuming old butthead (pwrguru) doesn't add another shrubber or two, and assuming we can sustain our present rate. Something I doubt we can do as most, if not all, members of this team have the attention span of a gnat Sad

.

This Crunchy team can crank out 11 million shrubs per days when they want to: http://www.majestic12.co.uk/projects/dsearch/teaminfo.php?id=27, and he alone can hit 7 million per day http://www.majestic12.co.uk/projects/dsearch/userinfo.php?id=548 Shocked

. These guys can halt our advance anytime they want, or specifically old butthead can, all by himself Crying or Very sad

.

We face great odds, and what does this team do whenever it's faced with a monumental challenge Confused

?!

WE RUN AWAY Laughing

!!!

Once again Old Farty's got us into a battle with impossible odds Embarassed

. And do you know who's fault that is ? IT'S YOURS Shocked

! You all know I need constant supervision or else I'll wander the net and get us into trouble Confused

. But noooooo, budget cuts dictated you fire my handler and now look where we're at Sad

. I recommend we confuse and confound the enemy and conduct a full-scale rearward charge Cool

!

Man the cowtapults Surprised

!!! We retreat at dawn Rolling Eyes

!

I vote we launch cows at guru's ISP instead. Why take on just one insurmountable foe when we could take on their entire army!

Give me complete instructions and I will put it on one of my PC's. I have Broadband and I am limited about how much whatever I can use.

Remember complete 1, 2, 3, instructions so I can get it on and running. TIA #ni-2

1) Download the app
2) Install it.
3) Run it if it doesn't run itself.
4) You will get an Options page. Put in your email, nickname, password, country, etc. You will also (I forget now) be asked about your connection.
5) Click Register. It should say success and start running.
6) Join the KWSN team
7) In the Options, go to the Connection tab. If you don't know your connections limits, test it. Then set your Downstream to whatever you want it to be.

For instance, if the test says your connection can do 1,024 kbps down and you didn't care if MJ12 maxed it out, you'd put 1024 for Downstream and then 100% on the slider next to it. If you're concerned about limitations from your ISP, being able to still use the 'net, etc, then set it no higher than 80%.

And if you need any more help, feel free to ask.

What is "The Remote Node Setup"? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Is it asking for that? What information does it want? I don't see any options related to that in mine, and I think it's when you're administering a machine elsewhere?

Yes, I have a pop up box that says this:

Hostname
Username Password
Update Frequency

Information
Local Idle Time
Remote Profile.

I don't see anything that says Options anywhere.

I get this error "The Underlying connection was closed. The remote name could not be resolved."

What do I put in for "node"?

Hopefully someone else will be able to help with this one. I've no clue where you've gotten off to. Sad

I un-installed it as I couldn't get any help filling in the pages of info they needed. Their web site is totally useless.

If you want, I can get on IRC after work and try to help you get it running.
Perhaps it is easier when you can get immediate feedback?

Try #kwsn on EFNet some time after 16:00 GMT.

I just thought most people knew what time zone they are in Rolling Eyes

EST is GMT-5, i.e. 16:00 GMT would translate to eleven o'clock in the morning EST.

Evening in EST means bedtime for Mildew, so never mind then.

A Node in the MJ12 context is the same as an instance of the client running on a computer, so by running a node they simply mean running the client.

You can get MIRC from http://www.mirc.com/get.html (that's what I run).
They have a pretty good install guide at http://www.mirc.com/install.html.
If you manage to install it, connect to any EFNet server and type "/join #setiathome" and I think you'll see some familiar names Smile

Haven't logged in irc in a long time. Mirc is the program I used to. Very easy and very good.

Sorry I couldn't help more, but I'm new to MJ12 as well (only been running it a few days). I'm still trying to figure out why I can't get it to max out my connection. Confused

I'm also still working on getting onto IRC. I dislike having to open a port for ident, but such is life. Mainly I dislike opening a port because my router is broken and I have to flash the firmware to fix it to let me work with ports again.

Update (before I even posted it haha): Ok, flashed, fixed, and online. Anyone else awake at 5am?

Maybe I should have clarified, and said still awake. It's now 8am, and I'm just about to go pass out. Have a head cold, and I tend to feel better the longer I'm awake, and the worst when I first get up (when I often can barely breath, etc). Soooo, I stayed up as long as I could.

FWIW, I got IRC working, and BoincView too. BV is really cool hehe.

This is what I am getting on MIRC

Unable to connect to server (socket is not complete)

What does this mean?

You always manage to get the strangest errors! Laughing

I have no idea what this means. Could it be the Winblows firewall?
