I think part of the issue that started this thread arose was due to what was considered 'cheating' changed several times w/o warning. So as we were playing by the rules it was then no longer acceptable. That happened 3 times. | |

I think part of the issue that started this thread arose was due to what was considered 'cheating' changed several times w/o warning. So as we were playing by the rules it was then no longer acceptable. That happened 3 times. I understand that. And one can understand that changing rules is a part of all systems when exploits/bugs are discovered regarding the primary goal of the system. Primary goal of WuProp is not points or badges which are incentives. The goal of incentives in a system are to encourage good behaviours or to discourage bad behaviours. In WuProp points and badges encourage users to share their compute times and workunits properties to help the community with valuable data and it helps small or unknown projects. But incentives alors work in another way. The community can gives incentives to the administrator, positive or negative, to encourage or discourage him. The Internet should not make us forget that real people are in front of their screens, the distance is just an illusion. Seb is a real person with a real job and he gives you a part of his free precious time. Give him positive incentives to continue working on something you like ! Be positive ! | |

+ being not happy about what <some people> consider like "unfair change of rules" (in their point of view) was a fairly good reason to | |

And let see if they will be as successful as Seb... | |

I support this project 100%, obviously. WUPROP has kept me BOINC-ing long after chasing credits became boring. | |

Like WUprop owes them something.... (more like they forgot the point) | |

Unfortunately it seems Seb got bored over the top, he is not answering us on the AF forum neither... for the moment things are like that. | |

My situation: I run 2 instances of WUProp; I have 2 copies of BOINC running on my computer because I want my weaker graphics card to only run Sieving on PrimeGrid. | |

Anyhow, you do realize that even if you had every boinc project on one client, you only need one WUProp account. Yes you only need one account. That isn't what is being discussed. What is being discussed is that people were running multiple instances of WUProp work units. What is happening is that people wanted all of their runtime hours to count. And I honestly don't think it picks up all of the clients with the one work unit. So, if I have a rig with 250 clients running (which I do). Each of those clients have 4 work units that are Non-CPU intensive each. I would therefore be running 1,000 work units on that host. I look at my times here, and it shows me with a total of ~700 runtime hours for the day. That is across all hosts I have whether physical or virtual. So, I'm not positive if WUProp was crediting them based on the actual CPU time used or wall clock, but I think people were trying to guarantee they got all the runtime hours rather than just WUProp points. I'm thinking it was based off of wall clock because looking at the numbers, it would line up with total number of physical and virtual hosts rather than total number of clients actually ran in my case. ____________ ![]() | |

Please tell me what "science" Grid Computing Center/Goofyx is doing? When we reach an infinite number of monkeys, we'll know. ;) 'Science' has always been objective. Fool's errands exist until something new is discovered, then suddenly it's a new field of study. | |

Well, WUProp only reports in every 6 hours. My logic might be off, but if you wanted to absolutely check, start WUProp at the same time on each server and then after 24 hours, check the report. | |

It seems that Sebastien really stopped any work with wuprop and signature.statseb.fr | |

Things not working ? like what ? (examples) | |

Here all looks ok, but at signature.statseb.fr new project DHEP is missing. | |

Yep DHEP is not considered yet, neither in SAM nor StatSeb, the announcement done by admin that his project is "live" is fairly recent, and it's holidays time around here too. | |
