10,000,000, A new recruit & A Learning Curve

Well I beat Nightlord to 10 million. The fortunes of TSBT may be gauged by the fact that I am only ranked 3rd in the team (4th when Nightlord finally manages to stomp me) but notwithstanding my headlong fall within TSBT I am heading rapidly back to the world top 300 thanks to the miracle of GPU crunching.

The new kid on the team is Merlyn (previously Steve of Boinc UK) who is UK number 1 and whose contributions have added 50% to our output. Realistically we can expect to be top 50 by the end of the year!! Eventually we might manage to make a move on the UK #1 place!

I've decided that my sadly unloved & unlovable TSBT website [which recovered as soon as uploaded my last post] needs a total overhaul. Never having been able to find a decent Website Editor Program I've decided to become a hardcore, Notepad using, HTML/CSS code monkey. At present the learning curve is so steep that I keep falling back down but I think I'm getting the hang of it. So keep reloading that URL.

I'll let you have your time at #3....hardware issues at Chez Nightlord prevent the stomp for a while.

Anyway, and much more importantly, the website is looking good!

Sorry to hear about the hardware issues. If you need any spares let me know: My main hardware issue is too much of it!
Thanks for the comments about the website - it's certainly looking better.

When you'll have a spare core on your Uberchruncher maybe you can look into Artificial Intelligence System, they give good credits, less than SETI optimised but it seems to me on par with what Cosmology gives theese days. And seeing the sorry state that natural intelligence is in, we should welcome our new distributed overlords.

Anyway, I'm not from your team but i enjoy your blog. Keep up the crunching and posting.
