to make sure:

this is the location of the dat file: http://www.aooq73.dsl.pipex.com/SobDat_n1M-20M.zip

This is the location of the latest client: http://n137.ryd.student.liu.se/proth_sieve.php

reserve the range on 1m-20m post: http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showthr...&threadid=3501

A post like

Reserving
152700-152800 maniacken

will be enough. Please check if the range you want to reserve is not reserved by anyone else on the list and/or on one of the remaining posts on that page.

run the client for the range you reserved (if you reserved 152700-152800, then)

sieve from p= 152700

to p= 152800



submit the factors you find to the factor submission page when finished (or if you reserved a larger range, from time to time. once every couple of days will be enough) (http://www.seventeenorbust.com/sieve/)

post once more on 1m-20m post: http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showthr...&threadid=3501

Something like:

152700-152800 maniacken [complete]


At that point, if you liked sieving, reserve your second range......

------------------


As far as the time you have to return the results, I do not think that there will be a problem as long as we hear from you that you're working on the range (either through your posts or through the factors you submit). But if you want to feel comfortable at it, try not to fall too much behind (i.e. stay at the "Lowest active ranges" for a couple of weeks).
