    Louie,
    Shouldn't the doublecheck flag come from the lowresults.txt and results.txt files NumTests entry?

    Code:
    p	k	n	UserID	TeamID	NumTests
    3000032566681	55459	15805426	1	3	0
    EDIT:
    I think that we should keep the parameter on the command line, and call it "relax constraint" parameter, or something like that. Allow it to range betweeen -9 and +9, and add it to the NumTests entry for that test. This would mean different B1 and B2 for each test based on the NumTests value, and an overall bias for the run based on the "rc" parameter. If you want to run fast, lower the chance of finding a factor by lowering the B1 and B2 values then you would make this a 1 or 2 or 3 ... or 9. If you have more time and want to raise the chance of finding a factor by raising the B1 and B2 values then you would make this a -1 or -2 or -3 ... or -9.
