Just joined your team, since there's no KWSN! team in ECCP. You should have enough to push past Entrust next update at 6pm now.
On a side note, my personal goal is to achieve 100k results before retiring from ECCP-109 altogether. :p

Do you think they are all using BeOS? Could be...
There are 3 times as many of them... :p :jester:

Didn't think there were 71 installations of BeOS anywhere....(hee hee)

Yes, they have been close behind us for months now.

Remember..the BeOS client is slower than the Windows or Linux client on most DC projects.
So if they were all running Linux and not BeOS..they would probably be outproducing and passing FreeDC.
They still beat us in dailies, because most of our firepower is struggling to keep ARSes off 1st place in DF... :cry:
Do you think that Picards are saving again to flush us down way they did in past? :confused:
They do tend to do dumps in the 2000-2500 DP region, but lately we've picked up steam and are creaming them in the dailies. I suspect we'll overtake them on the next update, then they'll do a dump that puts them ahead for a few days, then we'll pass them for good. We'd do even better if we could convince HOG_Rider (a user with 760K DP and no team affiliation) that we're secretly a haven for Harley Davidson enthusiasts.
I'm disgusted with the DF situation and will probably be concentrating more on Eccp, so I expect to come rocketing up from #12 on the team to a dizzying #9, possibly as high (do I dare dream?) as #8. I have little chance of passing anybody who's actually crunching, but those idle crunchers had better watch out...

Whoopsie! ;) I found a boxen not uploading. :rolleyes:
Just uploaded 272 lines worth of DPs :D
Wonder what kind of a dump that will make ;)
Keep kicking ya'll :smoking:
Tell your friend HOG_Rider that I was riding hogs before he was an itch.. nm :D (1970) :D
Tell him to come on over and visit for a spell...
We won't bite :jester:
Oh, and ECL... Bring it :moon: :p :cheers: :D
Well, my 100% record of mis-predicting Eccp events remains intact. We didn't quite overtake Picard this update, but we're certainly giving them (and BeOS) a good run.
14 Picard 414290 118
15 Free-DC 413974 970
16 Team BeOS 388139 641
Since I've missed every prediction so far on this project, I squint into my sadly fractured crystal ball and see... nothing. Nada. No predictions. I'm just going to keep crunching DPs and shut up about what might happen.
At least I got my #11 spot back from Angus.

A hearty welcome to our newest member bellbox :cheers:
While I spend a day trapped in the hell that is U.S. air travel, you guys let those Picards sneak up on us.
We'll take 'em. Again. When they least expect it. And we'll keep passing them as many times as we have to.
Those Picards :rolleyes: ...like small children

Hmmm... Pickard taking a bit of a risk cashing nearly 10k points at this stage of the project, wouldn't you say.

I would think caching DPs at this point is very risky.
Look at top100...that's hi-risk area
I really wouldn't stash so many DPs in this stage

Looks like 2-3 months to overtake Romulus, the question is, will the project last that long...
The official statistics indicate that this thing could easily go another year. Or it could end tomorrow. I'm assuming that it'll go at least another 6 months. That's not a prediction, I'm just averaging 1 and 365. Since the goalposts keep moving, it's pretty pointless to get obsessed with the odds of any particular day being the end date. We just crunch until somebody finds the solution or the ND server stops accepting connections. Oh, and we pass as many of the other teams as we can. Almost forgot.
If we keep up our new-found momentum, we could possibly rise 2 or 3 spots in six months. It would be nice to end at number 10, but we'd need quite a few more boxes for that.

Yes, I think the Number 10 spot should be our goal before the proj ends. You have to aim high don't you...
Hmmm... we need exactly twice our current total to reach it. :shocked:
