Likewise. Close to the finish line now. Although, it is looking like we won't gain or lose a spot for Rosetta. Not unless someone's been holding off all this time. If that is the case, then there's a possibility to switch over early.
I can't see SETIKAH@KOREA overtaking us.

Thanks Dataman!

Gee, an ARP work unit is going to take 27hrs to complete on my 3770S. 

Another has been going to 12hrs with 15hrs to go.....

Talk about looooong. I think that's worse than Cosmology. And all for

Actually....... I've done an about face and changed tactic.
I think everyone jumping onto the COVID work has freed up some ARP work units. I got HEAPS! So I've decided to use that opportunity to get ARP. I'm almost entirely crunching ARP now and dumped my COVID work .


I'll come back to the COVID badge

Has anyone had ARP w/u's get stuck?
I've got 2 which have been running for nearly 2 days and they are both stuck at 99%. Anyone heard about this or come across it themsleves?
I'm unsure if they will complete or not.

Edit - Scratch that...as soon as I finished typing one completed! Gee these things take forever to run!

Predictions are that this batch might not last that long, maybe through to Christmas, others are thinking March, but all depends on how much is returned each day.

If we go over 100k results returned a day by every contributor, then yeah Christmas.

So if you are thinking of a 5 year or 10 year badge, might be wise to go onto these before they disappear.

So if there are any goals you want to accomplish with this project, say a next level up badge, might be wise to have a look.

Thanks, Tazzduke. I'm hoping to get the 180-day badge before they turn it off.

Two months of down-time seems like a lot!

IBM is involved, so that will add time.
