In this link to the US-D forum, their intentions on our #1 spot in Chess Brain are made clear.
This confirms what we have been seeing in their daily output, which is currently double ours! We either react soon or settle for second place. This would also widen their lead on us in the over all stats as well.
Chess Brain can be run with your current favorite flavor of DC project. Check out our Chess Brain forum for more information.

Link fixed. You can now get there directly. Thanks cyg!!
are the stats working? i added several boxes last week but the stats didn't seem to be working, i don't know how much they are helping
n/m i see i am RED now, doing what i can!
Use the right tool for the right job!
Thanks for all of the help folks!
It's nice to see everyone come together like this.
I encourage you to use the mirror of my stats that IronBits has hosted for me at http://stats.dbestern.net/chessbrain...rt=0&limit=100 My main server had some trouble over the past week, so the information is not accurate.

Every little bit helps!
Sorry to hear that IB, but glad you have a bunch of other boxen running it.Originally posted by IronBits
Chessbrain will not run on my pxe nodes
something about a missing 'shared library' or something.
But, I'm loaded for bear with my many other boxen
ChessBrain seems to be almost the perfect accessory DC project. It is peacefully co-existing with CPDN, Lifemapper, GIMPS and SoB, and doesn't seem to affect any of them to a great degree.
It runs at 'Normal' priority on Windows2000 PCs which is higher than most DC projects, so when it needs to do some crunching for a few moments, it gets the CPU time it needs. The work assignments only seem to take 10 seconds or so on a reasonably fast PC.
My only concern would be how much it would slow my production for df. I think I read about 10-20%? I don't have that much power, so I don't want to slow down what I have.
What's your take?
Folks,
Great job in Chessbrain and Lifemapper ! We may or may not be able to catch you, but its fun to try. Good luck in ramping up your production and drop by our Forum

A nice friendly post in the spirit of compitition....
Now how can we sic A99 on them in their forum now?
You guys may be chasing us in CB but we are chasing US-Distributed in the over all standings...
There is some serious fire power on your team...
Heres to the chase
Moogie,
What ever happens, we're both advancing the concept of DC by increasing our output...and that has to be good for the economy as well as providing us a little entertainment along the way. That's good !
Our goal is just to be as good as we can in the various categories...not to pass anybody in particular, just to see what we can do and what works best, and to help each other doing it. Thats what makes it fun.
Again, best of luck in CB, LM and everywhere else.

Just installed Gentoo Linux on my xbox just so we could have another chessbrain node. How's that for digging down deep?

In that you and I agree 100%. The science is increasing while we are having fun yes? What more could you want?Originally posted by Fritz
