    Seems the phase III stats are really the World Record stats. Don't know where the real phase III stats are... besides on Bok's wonderful stats-o-rama!

    Well after checking the final stats is one project I will not crunch again. The offical stats show me in 21 place with 690M nodes. The real figure should be closer to 2000M check this which would me above Bok - but I guess he lost nodes as well (how are you doing my friend and you were right about my true ID but thats between us) and put our team in 4th place.

    Hey Kitcat,

    doing well mate, long time no hear ...

    The stats were notoriously flaky, dropping scores all over the place, then resurrecting them at a later date.

    Unfortunately I think mine are somewhat accurate, so you were above me!, I remember that anyway and actually may have a backup which even shows it

    Good to hear you are doing well. You know me much too well, I know I have a few files like that hanging around.

    SETI
    455 14 May 02 ? average time 35h 35m 00.5S 219001 place out of 3722279
    3000 26 Nov 02 21:50 15hr 13m 32.1s 41318 4109970
    3022 27 Nov 02 13:57 15h 10m 49.6s 40975 4111079

    Look at those average times, I think I got it down to 15hr becaue of the XP1800 CPU I was given and a little advice from a team I joined at about that time.

    I know I have some CB tracking files somewhere, and I did post on the CB forum about lost stats about a year ago.

    15 hours??? Were you running the screensaver with the GUI???

    I used to run 15 hours on one SETI test using a Pentium Celeron 450MHz with 64MB of DRAM.

    That was until I clicked the "use blank screen" option. Then it dropped to 2-3hrs per test...

    When I went command line it dropped it to 1.5-2.5hrs in total time.

    No way you got 1.5 - 2.5 hours on a 450....

    I benchmarked the standard seti unit on an overclocked XP2800 pushing it to 2.5Ghz 4 or 5 years ago and got it at 1.55hrs..

    I would like a nice pile of those 450 where can I purchase them. Guess you should be able to purchase them for $20 15GBP each. The last 2 remain 500Mhz P3 boxes at work take about 12 hrs.

    Not at that point. For the first 200 odd Woots I did use the screen saver - which it isn't - and they took 10000 hrs, then I downloaded the CLI from the SETI site, it was months later I discover SETI driver and SETI Q. In the mean time I wrote a simple batch file to keep my clients busy.

    Joking aside it is possible to overclock a box so much it was - and still might be - possible to cause the SETI client to abort its tests but will appear overwise stable. I had a really overclocked XP2500 which managed to "complete" its first 250 WU in 8 hrs before I fixed it. It then run at about 2hr 10mins if I remember correctly.

    Today I received an email from Carlos Justiniano. I don't know if I should post here the message.

    Anyone got also one from him?

    Carlos

    EDIT

    PCZ you got that one too.

    Hey,

    i'm selected in the test too. I think i'll catch up with free dc in the chessbrain.net project. So you'll see me a little more often around here

    Greetings

    Pretty much anyone that e-mailed him with interest got the e-mail. I was one of them. There was no pre-selection to this process.
