Seventeen or Bust headed into Mersenne-only prime territory

[jasong]

When the SB numbers get above 4053946 digits(very close at the moment), any prime you guys find will probably be the highest non-Mersenne prime known to man.

Good luck.

I owe you guys a bit of an apology. If I had looked at that page a little better, I would have realized that you guys already have 2 primes to your credit that are the highest non-Mersenne primes known to man.

My bad.

If you had looked at that page just a little bit harder, you would have seen 4 SB primes, not 2.
At the time of this post, 4 of the top 11 primes have been found by this project. The other 7 are Mersenne primes found by GIMPS.

Now, it's 5 of the top 12. :)
