Hello all Teammembers of Team Norway,
Hello all Friends of Team Norway,
Smile Hello Vikings

As since the Year 2009 , we want to build the CHARITY TEAM again !
I write to tell you that this year`s CHARITY CONTEST will crunch for RNA World .
The CHARITY CONTEST is a Joint Venture between Team L´Alliance Francophone and Team SETI.Germany , but the CHARITY TEAM , who will be founded a few days before the Contest Starts, by the Admins of L`AF and SG , runs on its own, so the credits archieved will only go to the CHARITY TEAM ACCOUNT .
We invite you to Crunch with us for 2 weeks together as the Temporary CHARITY TEAM !

The 4. CHARITY TEAM RACE is from :

SO 15/01/2012 at 00.01 h - SA 28/01/2012 at 23.59 h MEZ TIME

SA 14/01/2012 at 23.01 h - SA 28/01/2012 at 22.59 h UTC TIME


To see what that means to your Timezone, look at : http://www.zeitzonen.de/

The Forum of CHARITY TEAM you found here : http://forum.charity.boinc-af.org/

Blushing Sorry I forget, the Forum was of a Server from Team AF , so the Register is in French . This help you for English : http://forum.charity.boinc-af.org/index.php/topic,34.0.html

Smile To Join in the CHARITY TEAM : http://www.rnaworld.de/rnaworld/team_display.php?teamid=1296



The Idea behind the CHARITY CONTEST is just to bring BOINC Users as much as possible together, to crunch for a Medical/Biological Projekt as a Temporary Team.

Cool Greatings to all SEARCHER

Smile Hello Teammates and Friends from Team Norway,
Wink Hello Vikings

This as Information for you :

There has been a question regarding the apps to choose for the Race. Here's Norman's reply to SEARCHER :

English

Hi Joachim,

Well, the most popular WUs are cmsearch S as they can be crunched quite quickly and with few ressources.
Unfortunately, this can result in a shortage on the server.

Therefore, only cmsearch XXL remains but with longer or a veeeery long runtime and a larger request of RAM. What is funny is that, for many reasons, the apps do not have any checkpoint and the main developers did not find it necessary. The apps have been developed for HPC, not for BOINC, where RAM and duration play no role.
Only Linux 32bit is writing checkpoints.
Thus, I'd recommend solid computers, running for a long time and having more than 2 GB of RAM (4 would be better) for the longer WUs.
Also check "keep apps in memory" in the Boincmanager.
For the time [of the race] you should also deactivate the Windows updates or put them on manual reboot.
If you need to shut down your computer(s) overnight, take care to shut it/them down in hibernate modus (write-to-disk).

Well, yes

As we only distribute CMSEARCH S AND XXL at the moment, the choice will not be very difficult to make

kind regards
Norman

English :

A quote : I'm considering these things XXL abort execution ! How is your opinion ?

Answer Norman : The XXL things with the names included are monsters INTRON WU and progress can expect several days / weeks despite 100% on.

They should be counted only to systems that run 100% stable and best 24 / 7 the week and shutting down always with suspend to disk (hibernate) due to lack of checkpointing.

The deadline should be just simply post in the forum under specification of WU ID. yoyo or something else then the deadline is extended.

English :

A quote : I become more Credits for a XXL-WU as by a S-WU ?

Answer Norman : In the long run, the XXL-WU more than 2 or 3 days takes a different credit system.
A bonus system that awards up to twice as many credits as for the short WU.
This is adjusted in steps.
So when someone delivers a WU e.g., the 5 days went much more he gets points for such WU.
The reason is that because the apps offer no checkpointing and at such long maturities is still a certain risk is the calculation of "messing". The perseverance should be rewarded.

Post from Norman : The cms-S WU be drawn faster than the server can produce them.
This is the drawback but it is working on them. Do not worry Smile .

English :

Question : My computer has been working on a very long WU over 45 hours, estimated time is now around 224 hours. How much credits may I expect on this WU ? BTW deadline is on February the 3th. I'm going to ask somebody to extend the deadline.

Answer Norman : In the credits, it also depends on wingmen. e.g., if the wingmen twice as fast as your own host there sites other than credits equally strong.
I can not say exactly how many credits to jump out now, but in fact it will be damned I think a many large 5-digit number.

Post from Norman : Great performance, I say. Even the XL-WU, sometimes really pack a punch in the running time will be attacked, and mastered with the right commitment.
Loss of computer time at e.g. Reboot, crash or computation errors are apparently easily accepted.
Phew, because you can not say THANK YOU enough. Really a great Team.
Respect !

Smile Good Morning and Hello Folks,

ThumpUp Thank you for the Administrator`s from Team L`Alliance Francophone and Team SETI.Germany who created this CHARITY TEAM CONTEST 2012 .
ThumpUp Thank you for all Helping Hand`s who make Statistics, very nice Logos and many many more.
ThumpUp Thank you for all Participant`s who Crunch the last 2 Weeks by the 4. CHARITY TEAM CONTEST 2012 with us.

RollEyes But by all Happiness, about over 12 Million Credits, the 8. Place by the Team Statistics by RNA World , all Overtakes from another Teams and many many individual Statistics, I think we not forget the biggest Thing by this 4. CHARITY TEAM CONTEST 2012 . In the last 2 Weeks so many Members, from many Teams and many Countrys, Crunch and Fight`s in only ONE TEAM . And we found the last 2 Weeks many new Friends , so I say this was biggest Thing in the last 2. Weeks. And this was THE MESSAGE for the next CHARITY TEAM CONTEST 2013 .

Sad And now I was sad to say you : ha det, good bye, au revoir, auf wiedersehen

Applause http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rn7QFb9Y14 Applause
