Travis did some workunits at 3.xx then when i told him the majority vote he did the rest 4.xx. From now on they will be slightly greater than 4.

Are these supposed to run any longer? Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. ID: 2798 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Falls into a good range. More importantly, I like the collaboration and communication between Project staff and members. This project has GREAT potential! Keep up the wicked-cool work! Cheers!

Why am I still getting only 2.17 credits on all my machines?? You must have some of the old workunits. Only the new workunits carry a 4 credit. The amount of credit put in is decided at the time you make the workunit and is not possible to change without editing the database. So when you finish those workunits, your new ones will be 4 credits.

This makes around 195 cr per hour on each quad box. MW now one of the highest per hour along with ABC (198 per hour) that I am currently crunching. ID: 2804 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
