For me, my first blue star is cool.

Who knows one of these years, I might get a sixth star. :)

Congrats to y'all on the huge ranks.

Got my 3'rd 100k Star, not the 1'st to do that though, Mumps beat me to it ... :P

Will get my 4'th 50k Star in a few weeks then any other Major Stars will be a long time coming if ever. I've pretty much shut down except for a couple box's but will try to keep getting the minimum Hr's for any new App's that come out in the future ...

Congratulations STEVE,

That is a major achievement for both Mumps and yourself. I can't think how hard it is to get 100,000 hours in a single application let alone 60 of them.

Congratulations to zzuupp and STEVE.

8th star updated to Gold:

->

Will take the broad spectrum approach now, crunching for whatever turns up but will make sure I'm crunching towards a second magenta, another Ruby and the new apps.

still 11 apps from a bright green star, 5 apps from a second magenta and 18 apps away from upgrading my 4th star to Blue.
14 apps away from an Emerald (5th star)
11 apps away from promoting my 7th star to Red
11 apps from moving a bronze to silver
14 apps from a 12th star…

Congratulations, it takes a lot of effort to hunt down and run the number of applications required to get that many stars.

Some applications stop and then new ones come along. How many have you collected?

A number of new applications came out this month, helping people build their application numbers as well as building up application hours.

Bok's "Free-DC" web site shows your hours and how you rank against others (you must allow for the hours export in you account preferences, there is no security problems as no one can access your account).
Just allow the export and as you pass 180 applications I can add you to this list.

Since last month

We have lost Senilix from the list as he has turned off the hour export function in his account.

New members this month

RFGuy_KCCO, Rlacroix and Phil1966

Milestones

LCB001 has reached his 17th star
Steve Hawker* has gained his 16th star
Sphynx has gained his 15th star
reklov has gained his 13th star
Sabroe_SMC, Ralfy, [SG]MichaelR and alez [TSBTs Pirate] have all gained their 12th stars
skgiven, fzs600, have gained their 11th stars
stasieks, Egon Olsen, gaballus and AL167 all have gained their 10th stars
RFGuy_KCCO, Rlacroix and Phil1966 have all gained their 9th stars.

More people are starting to get on this list as more and more applications from more projects are being processed, lets continue the fun.
Trying out new applications can be a bit of fun in itself. It can take a bit of searching to get new applications that suit your needs, so sometimes you add no applications in the month and other times you add a number of applications, you just need patience.
I continue trying to build hours in a number of applications, some new and some I have been working on for a while.

I had a few idle minutes so had a look at the number of people that had now gotten to 200 Applications or more (applications that have passed 100 hours each) and the number of Stars each has gotten.

I can't give exact totals of the applications because not everyone exports their hour data (you can allow this in your account).

However of the 50 people that have passed 200 applications or 10 Stars, 38 do allow hour data export.
For this list I will not be giving exact app numbers just what is indicated by the amount of stars people have, just to keep it even.
People underlined allow hour export and are on my number of applications list.

Nearly everyone on this list will have processed many more applications than listed but not enough yet to get to the next star level.

This list shows there are a few big players that would change the order that my list is showing people. But as those big players don't allow data export, I don't know their exact app number I can't list them.

It takes a bit of effort to get to 200 applications but as you can see some people have gone way beyond 200 and even passed 400 applications.

When this project started I didn't think there were enough applications to get to 100 applications (the original highest badge level was 5 Sapphire Blue Stars, first achieved by STEVE but about a dozen people have now reached that level).

It is all a bit of fun, and I think I like statistics.

It's the only reason I bother crunching these days. Too many fights over credits just spoils the whole experience. Bok's Mega Milestones kept me going for a long time but I've pretty much hit the wall there. At least chasing hours provides a regular challenge to keep abreast of what's going on so you can grab that app before it disappears.

Congratulations on a truly amazing effort and upgrade.

Projects will just love it when you turn up on there volunteer list, of that I am sure.

Now if I get my old AMD's running 24/7 I might have a chance of catching you; Oh my dreams get ahead of me, I AM running my old AMD's 24/7 already.

It could be a lack of computer numbers thing and CPU speed as well.

Thanks to Conan for posting the stats. I have passed my 12th star but I think 13 will be a while coming up. 242 apps over 100 hrs from 340 apps in total.
It's more likely I'll be upgrading bronze / silver etc than grabbing star 13.

Your welcome alez, I find it kind of a fun thing to do.

Congratulations on the 12 Star.

On a personal level I have made my first star level Pink or Peuce or whatever the colour really is.
That's 20 apps to over 10,000 Hours.

Congratulations Conan on the Magenta, and thanks again for the reviews.

Updated my 7th star from Gold (yellow) to Ruby (red):

->

I've more apps now to select from so I'll continue filling out the middle badge while doing a bit for Lime green and a second magenta.

10 apps from lime,
4 apps from a second magenta,
17 apps from upgrading my 4th star to sapphire,
11 apps from another emerald (5th star),
15 apps from another gold (9th star),
4 apps from moving a bronze to silver
11 apps from a 12th star…

The second magenta is still some way off (months rather than weeks) and I might struggle to get the silver without adding more apps (supply not meeting demand), but that would help me eventually reach a 12th star.
Would also like to reach another emerald sooner rather than later...
