Rally Apr. 17th-19th

Schweet!

I've been asked to find out what Free-DC would prefer in order to increase the participation level and interest.
The client is absolutely easy to run, as some of you have found out this time around.

What is easier for you, my fellow teammates?

More frequent rallies with short durations or less frequent rallies with a longer duration?

2 day rally
4 day rally
7 day rally
or longer perhaps?

4 day (long weekend) rally every month would be good for me; wouldn't take too much away from the main projects I want to run but would still give a regular boost...

Getting it BOINC'd would help...

[IronBits]

Another resounding

Congrats!

Back onto my normal BOINC projects - be happy to help the next run though

[IronBits]

Great to hear pfb!

Boinc is not going to happen for NPLB as the admins prefer it the way it is, as do most of the participants.

It would be great if we could keep some pressure up so ROLP doesn't get too far ahead, or,
we could slowly chew through to their lead and sneak into #1.

Is it over already?

I think 4 day minimum since switching projects on machines takes a little time so once we have things up and running let it go for 4 or 7 days, then we can switch back to something else.

As for frequency, I think once a month is ok or at least every 2 months. I found one new top 5000 prime so I'm very happy. It was in the top 2000 when I submitted it, now it is 2007.
