Genome@Home Report

Team Status

Upwards progress has now pretty much ceased for the foreseeable future due to the gap to the next victims – projected stomp date under current progressive rates is September :eek: Unfortunately, as you may have noticed, we have fallen 30 units short of 300,000 at the time of writing, although I’m sure the units have already been uploaded to rectify this unfortunate oversight :wink: Nice to see an improvement in the weekly output which is almost back up to 9k but leaves us vulnerable to an attack by The_Lab (currently in 36th) who are slowly gaining on us.

That said, I’m going to repeat a small section from last week as there are still the same important issues with G@h 2.0 (or F@h 3.0) that have been there since inception last week:

For official information on Genome@home 2.0 (aka Folding@home 3.0), see here, here and here.

Well, the integrated Folding/Genome Client hit the streets this week and pretty much transpired to be (yet another) damp squib of an affair. Various reports floating around with strange stories too – varying from the client failing to get more genome units after the first to dog slow and the creation of new Folding Teams by the client after completing a Folding unit with Genome Team details. I think Genome Classic (0.99 to you and me) has a fair bit of life left in it yet, especially considering the lack of –nonet features in the Folding client.

Internal Affairs

Right, as usual, starting at the bottom: wnyotiel gets the ball rolling again, this week’s victim being Spectre, madDragon roars back into life to avaenge last week’s stomping and not only unstomps himself from woof, but also leaves a trail of half eaten sheep on both JUGEARS’ and nitrile’s farms too :eek: Juggy follows through on nitrile too, just to make matters worse for our unfortunate house mover. Only 1 left and it’s me! Unfortunate circumstances (for Alta anyway) see me regaining the #2 spot, although I’m sure Alta will be back when his RL funding issues have been resolved with the powers that be…

That concludes this week’s sermon :wink:

In the weekly production stakes, big up for riddler making his comeback trail complete at the top of the table with a solid innings from ciipher (as usual), andyu still unusually low in the rankings as he continues to tidy up his SETI account and a welcome appearance from nitRAM too :slight_smile:

Daily production is always a different kettle of fish where differing –nonet strategies make themselves a little more apparent, the usual solid outings from riddler, ciipher and Crazydude and JUGEARS making a comeback this week.

No fair, all FHM stuff is now denied by our SmartFilter content filter :frowning:

Nice report though m8, good to get a mention :slight_smile:

Excellent report my good man, nice to get a mention again.:nod:

That’s downright sneaky!

Special for you then rids…

Too right it is…! Half of the time the page3.com girls don’t make it through either :frowning:

Mmm Chloe… sweet, sweet filly :smiley:

Thanks for a fine report, Mulda - and many congratulations on the stomp :slight_smile:

8

Thanks for the report Mulda :nod:

I is a tad miffed, I uploaded over 150 genes yesterday and I have only been credited for about 20 :frowning:
I made a backup of the folders so I’ll try again tomorrow, that 726 Units should have looked more like 2000 :mad: Hey ho at least Chloe got uploaded just fine :smiley:

9

I think you need to be looking into this a bit more deeply nitRAM - I’ve not had any problems with crediting at all apart from the 1 very tiny glitch a couple of weeks ago (that coincided with your previous problem) and I’ve dumped over 2000 points this week so far across my 2 accounts…

10

Yeah I wonder if it’s the way I am transferring the files from my two non networked machines.
I have been using a zip drive and copying the whole genome directory. Then pasting this into a directory on my netowrked machine and running the standard Genome client so that it uploads the work and then get’s me a new unit.
It’s been fine up until the last two dumps.

11

similar to how I was uploading before I managed to drag myself into gear, and get it all networked :smiley: cept that I used a usb compact flash reader and a cf card :slight_smile:

12

Pretty much what I do with the PC I took to work, except I rename the Genome folder on this PC and transfer in the other folder as if it were the local install then do the -clear.

The only time I’ve lost units was from one of my home networked PCs and that was only 2 or 3 genes that didn’t get credited (~50 units) from a week of -nonet (~500 units).

Hard to see what’s going wrong, unless you’re having the equivalent experiences in Genome to mine in Folding :eek:
