Count(ess) of Wus, February 2012

[MtM]

I'll have this functionality ready in the next public release of FAHWatch, people who want to participate could use it to check their eue count for any period.

In V7, Ticket #837 (accepted enhancement) is scheduled for Milestone: Public Release.

Sorry if I am to focused on my own project, I knew people where asking for more info about eue's so kind of expected this to be added at some point even without asking for it myself.

About the ticket:

I would store the values in FAHControl.db if possible, and keep counters per slot. Zeroing counters only when a slot is removed, but allowing to ignore a current value ( for instance: you have 5 eue's in a row because of a driver problem, you fix it, you don't want to keep seeing 5 eue's in the main view because you already reconfigured and fixed it. So, allow 'dismissing' a certain EUE count, but don't zero it. Keeping totals might be useful for various reasons ( one of which would require keeping the count in a place users won't be easily able to change them manually, think about extending the 'wu draining problem handling incase of misconfigured clients' from serverside only to client and server )). These counters could also be used to configure notifications to the user outside of a value displayed in a label.

I owe you one They were good though

I believe I had a 100% success rate for Feb. Had my PC taking a small break from folding since then to alleviate the next electricity bill just a tiny bit. (As such March will be a bit catastrophic for me in the Wuss count heh.)

[Ravage7779]

I lost around 10 units from using ms remote desktop from my Mac to my pc. That apparently logs in as a separate user which makes the gpu clients barf instantly until they eue out. Oops.

[PinHead]

first WU complete for 4??,??? points for toTOW. Upload takes a while, not sure of points.

WU 6904 R2C43G46 is underway. When this unit finishes, the box will be switched to SMP to finish your 7 days since each of the 6904's is taking 3 days now.

It will run as toTOW until 7days plus -oneunit finished WU.

[PinHead]

toTOW, your bonus has been awarded. Client shutdown at 09:22:05 PM EDT.

Looks like you received 2 bigadv in 6+ days and 2 smp's in less than 1 day.
Calculated 1mil for 7days but bigadv didn't cooperate, hopefully I came close.

Good Luck on the next competition!

[toTOW]

Thanks for the prize and good luck to the participants of the March contest

[Amaruk]

To the Master of the Festivities, I beare glad tidings from the North Wood,
for word of thy quest hath reached the ear of Amaruk the Gray.
Whilst the Lord of the North Wood doth have a certain fondness for the Zweihänder,
in truth every weapon loosed upon a WU doth find favor.
Large or small, certes each one doth further the cause.
Thus shall it be known that from the tyme the last half moon waneth till it doth return,
two of Amaruk's finest, fierce four-headed beasts, hath forsaken the long sword in favor of the dagger.
Ruthlessly they shalt pursue these seventy eights till the limit of the appointed tyme.

If perchance this doth find favor in thine eyes, a link I shalt provide.

Fare thee well, fellow warriors of the fold!


Translation: both 4P are running 48 uni clients from March 15 till end of month

[Napoleon]

My sincere apologies for not keeping up with this tournament. Anyway, considering the ongoing shortage of FahCore_78 work, I'm tempted to say that the Knighthood has served its purpose. A4 for everyone, let the QRB games begin for all uniprocessors!

To end on a poetic note:
