    SquarePants

    Ni!

    Well, I made stats history today by being the first Knight Who Says Ni! who got a stat named after him (her/ it/ they)!

    I asked Bok, who graciously accepted my spam, to create a new category of stat that would encompass (ass is in that word Ha! ) a metric that would capture the total sum output of the effort expended in BOINC. Mirbs are the number of categories that you have a score in, (i.e. 1ks, 10ks, etc.) TeraMirbs are the ones in which your Mirbs are ranked in the Top 100 of Boinc users.

    I suggested that a total Breadth and Depth of numbers which included EVERY Mega Milestone you had would give a total value to the power of Scale, absolute numbers, and Scope, the number of projects participated in.

    I so ever humbly suggested it should be "SquarePants".

    That sucker took the bait!

    Just kidding, I am honored to be added the list of such great luminaries such as: Clank (I can't remember but his face rings a bell) , Maxwell, (from oil Drop Experiment fame) Vaio (I think he works for SONY), Gibson (he makes guitars) MiRB, (from the planet X43klw3!@#$, ), and of course the Great Bok! Ruler of all statistics.

    So Glad to have a new stat that measures true power!

    Zombie67! I am gunning for ya.....

    My SquarePants is 1150. I've participated in 94 projects. I've got 29 Mega Milestones. 94 x 29 = 2726. Can Bok or the KWSN tell me where I've gone wrong? Thanks!!

    Even though I prefer the mystery!!

    Sum(scores) on MM's excluding this category.

    Though I've been told it might be off by one somehow which I need to look into...

    Any chance on SubSquarePants? Or more sub-project based MMs? e.g. SubTrigggls, SubBoks, SubBozos, etc?
    And can the Trigggls and the Bozos be included in the MM menu too?

    But there are far less Subproject *MM than there are Full project *MM (e.g. no Sub2.5M and only SubClanks in the funnystats)

    My SquarePants is 1370. I've participated in 82 projects, so I should have 1370/82 MMs. 1370/82=16.707317.....

    It's not calculated as that. I've already said it's the sum(score) on MM's.

    If you go to your userbycpid page and in the MM, boxes add up all the scores in the 'many' column, go to your subproject page and do the same thing and add together.

    It has been reported that it may be 1 off somehow, but I haven't looked into that.

    I calculated as you explained and got the exact number 1370 (but that includes the SquarePant itself)

    Ahhh, ALL the MMs.

    Yes, mine adds up perfectly.

    Thanks!!

    Hei Ho, Hei Ho, I had a SubBozo
    But blew it before I knew it,
    It's true, you know.

    These are the MMs you can look up with the menu on the left side of the FreeDC stats site:
    • Most Team #1's
    • Most Team Top 10's
    • Most Team 1B's
    • Most Team 500M's
    • Most Team 250M's
    • Most Team 100M's
    • Most Team 50M's
    • Most Team 25M's
    • Most Team 10M's
    • Most Team 5M's
    • Most Team 1M's
    • Most TeraBoks
    • Most Clanks
    • Most Maxwells
    • Most Vaios
    • Most Mirbs
    • Most TeraMirbs
    • Most Boks
    • Most Projects
    • Most #1's
    • Most Top 10's
    • Most Top 100's
    • Most 1000M's
    • Most 500M's
    • Most 250M's
    • Most 100M's
    • Most 50M's
    • Most 25M's
    • Most 10M's
    • Most 5M's
    • Most 2.5M's
    • Most 1M's
    • Most 750K's
    • Most 500K's
    • Most 250K's
    • Most 100K's
    • Most 50K's
    • Most 25K's
    • Most 10K's
    • Most 1K's


    And these are the ones that get suddenly dropped upon you:
    • Most Trigggls (much like a Bok, but then for scores between 10,000 and 10,100)
    • Most Gibsons (much like a TeraBok, but then for scores between 10,000,000 and 10,100,000)
    • Most Bozos (much like a TeraBok, but then for scores between 100,000,000 and 101,000,000)


    And the last list can thus be extended into the Subs too, I discovered today. I already knew about SubClanks, having been #1 for a few weeks.
    Never a dull moment, crunching and keeping stats!

    Interesting stat, thanks SBSP and Bok.

    I am surprised to be in the top 10.

    Mega Milestones exist for many years, it would be nice to have them all listed in FAQ or at least somewhere on a forum. I'm surprised that it is not done already or may be I'm look in a wrong place xD

    It's kind of on purpose to keep some of the mystery surrounding them
