A big start to 2013!

Look at this graph and rejoice! 



That's what happens when several members independently rediscovered the bountiful pleasures of DistRTGen. So many credits it feels like cheating. We are even gaining on UBT (very slowly - they were 5,085 million ahead of us at the beginning of the week but we've narrowed the gap to 5,080 million!). I've switched most of my apparatus onto the project which might let me pass Merlyn this year and briefly be team number one before Janos tramples me underfoot on his way to the top.

From now on I'll do mainly DistRTGen with maybe 25% for Primegrid & enough SETI & Einstein to keep them afloat in the Top 100. WCG I'm afraid I'll pretty much abandon. Getting it top 100 is realistically just going to cost too much. 

And the forums have suddenly got lively again. Happy New Year!
