VJ, I think you're work machine is out of business, I don't see a trcklet since Jan 12 AM......

Why am I warning you? It's about a _beer_ FCOL (On the other hand, it's an english beer).

Thanks big brother for the heads-up: the progress bar was greyed out . I just shut down boinc and restarted, and now it is working again...

Why: well, you want to win the honest way!
Not necessarily English beer, GNEP said:

VJ - it can be Belgian beer if you like, as long as it's sold in London somewhere. And then I'll quite happily also drink it for you if you're never in London

So it probabely can be Dutch <s>beer</s>water as well...

You can't get a decent pint of bitter in London anyway

[Umfriend]

Dutch beer may not be good, but it's among the best of the pilsen. GNEP, we could also do a glass of wine in Grapeshots.

[Umfriend]

I'm coming for you guys.

RAC of 1200 should help me catch you.

RAC is borked. Anyone finishing a model will may shortly see a huge credit increase, which wil be recalculated every few hours (I think 4 or so). They do not recalculate RAC however. Yesterday, you contributed 5 trickles. If that is your average rate, you'll never pass me by. Got that? _never_ *NEVEREVER*

[Umfriend]

VJ, it's still not showing any credits!

And yer PM box is full. Don;t you mods get a bigger box?

[VJ]

Ok, I just cleaned it up... But I noticed what was wrong this time: 'disable boinc network access' was checked... I have unchecked it....

Hmm, larger pm-boxes... Sasq, are you reading this?



Jörg

[VJ]

Hmm, it doesn't seem to start uploading...


Umfriend, could you stop some of your computers, just to keep the competition fair?


Jörg

[VJ]

It still doesn't seem to be uploading. But perhaps this all is related to our network problems (25% packet loss ), soon to be solved as our coax finally gets replaced with Cat6 UTP.


Jörg

[VJ]

Ha, it is uploading... (my credits are increasing)
I wonder how much it will be...

Jörg

[VJ]

Wow... This CPDN thing has got me talking to myself...

Interesting graph:

(I hope I now compensated the lack of uploads for 2 days)

Judging by the look of the graph, it looks as Sunday for my monster update might be too late...


Jörg

[GNEP]

Hmmm it's going to be close... I have a secret weapon that may (or may not, it depends on a number of factors) be activated on Sunday or Monday. Should almost double my production if all goes to plan. We'll see...

[VJ]

What, I only get 3 trickles?

In the log file it says: "result exited with zero status but no 'finished' file"...
Crap, it has to do some calculations over...


I'll never win like this...

Newsflash:
An unexpected power failure hit Umfriend's street last Sunday. Experts think it may be the result of some highly secret weapon, but officials say it is unclear at this point what motive there could be. Police suspect Umfriend - who had been suspected of dealing computers, but it turns out he uses them instead of a central heating - was supposidely the target, but they refused to go into further detail. He is shocked by the events, not in the least as he says he lost many trickles. Psychiatrists are in doubt what he means by 'trickles', and suspect he refers to his garden gnomes. However, they aren't lost, so the psyciatrists are looking further...

Stay tuned on MNN (Murc News Network) for more on this story as it develops...
