This month I picked projects that really need some crunching.
RieselSieve and Einstein because we are the 2nd place Canadian team:

Image Image

Rectilinear Crossing Number because we are in 50th place:
Image

QMC because we are in 52nd place:
Image

All these projects run on Linux as well as windows so don't be afraid to vote.
The poll will stop 26 days from this post, so sometime in the afternoon or evening on Sept 30.

Quote:
POLLING RESULTS

RieselSieve - Math 0% [ 0 ]
Einstein - Search for pulsars 41% [ 5 ]
Rectilinear Crossing Number - More math 0% 0% [ 0 ]
QMC - Improve Quantum Chemistry 58% [ 7 ]
Total Votes : 12

Now this is a pain in the BEEP! All those projects are good ones. I'm crunching all of them now so it's hard to pick one over the other. :? . I'll make my dicision later.

Hey Grizz,

I'd like to change my vote to QMC which would make it 2 to 0, 0, 0. We could really move the team there up alot in a month.

I was the other vote for Quatum MonteCarlo. And I agree, we could make a nice dent.

@Pawly
Is there a way to undo the vote? I can't seem to find one.

@BB
If we can't undo it we'll just have to remember at the end of the month.

Ya, I didn't think there would be a way to mess with a poll. That would make them usless. I just thought I'd make my change of heart known.

I desided to vote for Einstein because I would like to see it get to the top 20 and attract more attention to our team so we can become the first place Canadian team. Since you desided to change your vote to QMC, I voted QMC for you and I'll take your Einstein vote. So the pole is back on track.

Have you seen this? Do you think will have enough W/U's for the hold month?

News items

Sept 11, 2007
We are reaching the end of the current analysis run S5R2, and participants might soon experience an increase of the downloads necessary for the remaining workunits to be processed. Users with rather low bandwidth will probably want to suspend the project for some days

I believe they will run another analysis, I haven't seen Einstein out of work in years. If they don't have the work, we always default to the second place project for the month.

So who's gonna break the tie? Are there really only 6 people willing to vote? There were at least 9 last month so let's get voting people!

We have started a new analysis run on LIGO S5 data, called S5R3. This uses a new version of the science application - details will be forthcoming in the Science Message Board area. Users who have been beta-testing the latest app versions should now remove their app_info.xml files.


News from Einstein, looking good for October! :comp3:

In case of a tie, we will take the first project to get the highest votes.
eg. if Einstein gets a 6th vote before QMC then Einstein wins, and visa versa.

Voted for QMC. It seems really practical.


Edit: I didn't read the thread before voting. I hope no one resents the fact that the new guy may have decided the vote. I might have abstained if i'd known. :oops2:
