I passed high ping!!!! Yahooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

SmOkIn!!!



Now if I can just pull away from em.

[jima13]

with both servers down now it'll be hard for em to catch ya

got 6 tied up now & 1 more in a few minutes.....good time to start my system maintenance program

[crowz]

Same here too though
lol well i can hope its a short problem.

[jima13]

but .101 is still out; funny problem in that there are no connections backing up, when .99 just went down you could see 129 [max] backed up.

guess what I'm trying to say is, unless they read the forums or see the posts on Yahoo they won't know there is a problem

[Andrew275]

I have a question. Why are the servers down so often?

[jima13]

I might be able to make some money

I think you might be able to work around it by starting another instance w/-local tag? haven't experimented with it myself, but soon.

I just wrote off .101 & all my systems are working on units from .99 now.

[crowz]

Well the last 30 points i finished hasnt been credited yet so high ping is back 5 ahead of me.

Hope they show up soon

[high_ping]

I hope that the servers stay up...

Go crowz...

I had to take 2 boxes offline for revamping.

[high_ping]

Lates update shows crowz #47 and me #50...looks like you did it!

I still have two boxes offline waiting for parts.

[crowz]

Its not quite the same the way it is now
Was good fun struggling up the ranks the way it was but now I dont know if Im doing good or if its just not dropping as many of my wu as it is others

I hope they get the servers doing right soon. I write server side apps all the time (Im an isp/webhost) and its not this hard to do what they are doing. Trust me So its a little discouraging. But Im leaving all my boxes plugging away anyways. Im manually counted my wu's while this has been going on just to see how bad they arent crediting people.
Im showing 375 now for score. From my estimates I should be at 640 right now
So I know its dropping others like mad too.
Thanks for the congrats though and I hope you can get your boxes back going soon and maybe they will credit you more than me for abit

[Althornin]

argghhh. i have zero WU credited to me for today.
yet last night when i got in, i checked my log- 5 completed WU, or 25 points. And my stats at the time said 5 points for the day.
WTF?

[sc5mu93]

i hate you crowz!! you just breezed by me - and now i got high_ping right on my tail. crap!

you two are folding like madmen!!

I posted this in another thread, but in case you missed it, it's a note from Vijay>>

"Thanks for all your support. Just one note: we don't throw away
data, although we may not credit the user for it. We're pretty tight
on credit when WUs seem potentially bad (to avoid stats cheaters,
which may potentially invalidate our science). However, we do save
the data and look at it (with a careful eye)."

a few weeks back he mentioned they were going to tighten the security on one of the servers [didn't say which one]; I lost out on about 100 yesterday myself; it's unfortunate that we get caught in the crossfire

For those that didn't know, there were some peeps that were trying to pad their stats by sending back empty packets & fooling the server into giving them credit At least the info is being looked at.
