Hello everyone.

This event is a farewell crunch-a-thon for SETI.USA team member EmSti, who is retiring from this BOINC hobby. Let's send him off in style!

Crunch On.

"Six by nine. Forty two."

49 could also be the correct answer if you approach the question from within the confines of a dutch coffee shop

No probs scole, despite your prematurely dropping your dump, TSBT have established an early lead. It almost certainly will be short lived which is all the more reason that we should celebrate it now!

Dang it late to my own party. Thanks everyone for coming, I appreciate it. I brought along my three dragons (PCs - FireDragon, BlackDragon, and RedDragon), not completely full due to power outage, but full enough for the challenge. Now that I am home they are up and running, they will be dumping their load.

It would have been nice if the project hadn't gone down hard on the last day of the challenge...

TSBT loves them some Collatz and we like participating in the challenges too. Those are some big numbers EmSti. Would be interesting to know what your GPU stable looks like So now what are you going to do with all that hardware and extra money you won't be spending on electricity?

Thanks everyone, it truly has been fun. I am late to the party and late to leave. Would have been nice to see this finish on a better note, but what can you do. In terms of HW. I am only running 3 pcs. PC 1: r9 295x2 and 7990. PC 2: Black Titan, gtx 780 ti and gtx 690. PC 3: 2 7970s and 1 r9 280x (normally 2 7970 and 2 r9 280x, but I didn't get a 4th card on-line for this). Plan is to cell most of it to the SETI.USA team.
