A thank you to Conan and Coleslaw and a bunch of the experienced users that Post and Test and Support the DC community.

A little less than two years ago I stumbled into WUProp and the whole badge concept of supporting many projects and I got my first little Bronze star.

Today I got my fourth star and yes it too is Bronze, but it looks great in position #4

Thanks again

According to announcements, WCG will launch a few new projects (apps) in the coming weeks/months. I'm sure I'll want to take them all past 5000h fairly sharpish.

Most probably it would be months, WCG has to release beta apps first.

WCG has to allow the export of their stats (due to GPDR) again first

Anyhow, you do realize that even if you had every boinc project on one client, you only need one WUProp account.

Please tell me what "science" Grid Computing Center/Goofyx is doing?

Trying to find out if a monkey can type "Christmas" (app V2/V4) and how long it will take? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem
Please!
Even if I'm also running this project for badges, I wouldn't define it as Science.

I think Seb (who is the only person to develop and maintain and support the project since the beginning) has been really affected by the aggressiveness of some users here and the continuous effort he had to produce in order to avoid cheaters to produce fake data into WUProp (just so they can get more stars maybe ? I'm not even sure I understood why there were doing this actually) and after posting some warnings here, he just gave up... which is sad and terrible. Because, you understand it well, nobody will be able to replace him on this project.

At the end we (at l'AF) will accept his choice anyway, we are just really sad about it, and don't loose hope that he may reconsider his decision in the future.

Should we expect to see the GCC times and stat's removed from WuProp soon ?

I hope not, as I would lose my only light blue applications (over 50,000 hours, I only have 2) and I have only been running what the project originally set up (4 apps (v1,v2,v3,v4 per computer), as I never worked out how you can run multiple instances of BOINC Client, I haven't bothered to try and change anything.
Other people change things, but I get nervous.
So I just follow the rules.

I still have a lot of hours clocked up that I would not want to lose, it has taken me a long time to accrue those hours.

I was just about to ask if Charity Engine was able to be attached to a client. It won't attach for me with user or email.

You have to use the Charity Engine Client to attach, I haven't been attached to them for quit awhile now because they seem to try & take over your BOINC Client so I avoid them now.

Email confirmation said the BOINC client could be used.

Looks like it's not attached as a project but as an account manager. It seems to not be it's own project but just sends work from other projects? If it wasn't in the BOINC client how would WUProp monitor it?

Don't know, I know I had to use their client to run the project when I ran it, haven't run it in a few years so things may have changed since I ran it ...
