Results so far: 14 members with 138 results returned.  Congrats cal and someone named Asgoroth, I'll be up there before long. I know we have a lot more people out there with a willingness to join in the fight. PLUS phpbb has a team that's still ahead of us, and iB is kicking our butts handily right now...:D

I could never get it to work when I tried it like a month ago. So I'll just keep searching for aliens I guess (Seti@Home).

Allen, just how many machines are your unning the UD program on?  Oh yeah.. I am mostly a lurker. I run a small UBB at Rough Rangers Off-Road Club . I have gotten so much from this site, I figured I would help in a way that I could. Seeing as I can't program much of anything, I am not much help in that area..

Well I'm running it with two machines  Does it go faster with a better machine? Becuase the one I'm running it with is a 1 ghz. *Edit* I guess it does, it does 1 % every minute. This other (slow) computer does 1 % every 5 minutes [ June 18, 2001 01:29 PM: Message edited by: Badger ]

Welcome Asgoroth!  I have it on 3 machines right now... a couple others too, but they deliver a result about once every 3 days or so, so they don't count  Welcome Elwinz, soma0 and Badger, glad you are on the team.... processor speed does make a difference, but the slower machines do get more points for each result turned in, so they are all good, plus it helps in developing possible cures for cancer. Wouldn't it be great if your pc returned the result? All of them make a difference...

Hyabusa - welcome! That'd be excellent  iNtErNeT aDdIcT - you earn points by returning results. The slower pc's earn more points per each result returned, but the faster pc's return a good bit more results in the same time.  We went over 1000 results returned last night

I joined, I own UltimateDBZ.com and Dragonball100.com ... I might post about this on my site and ask that the fans join your UBBDev's team ... I get 5000 unique visitors a day for UltimateDBZ.com, and 15000 for Dragonball100 (which is down right now).

How do you find out how many results you returned? I've had this on for 10 minutes and I haven't gotten any points nor did the "TOTAL CPU TIME" go up any at all. But, the "Task CPU Time" is gaining since the beginning (when I first ran the program), and the "Task Execution Process" is going up about a percent every 3 minutes, why is it so slow? My processor is decent (650mhz). :rolleyes:

The results are updated on the team page once daily ~8pm CST time. Once you return your first result, it updates on your individual page immediately. A really fast machine probably returns a result every 3 hours or so, slower pc's can be much slower, depends on speed.  Oh, and welcome  We'd be happy for your members to join us
