Thanks in advance to everyone that participates!

Yes!

A great project all - a worthwhile cause and fun at that

ps.. Deb is ahead of the rest of us in the points, time to get started...;)

i dunno if i did this right for agent name do you put Team UBBDev ?

no, you put a name describing the computer you're on.

i.e. for mine I put 'downstairs'

How do i know if im on the ubbdev one?

You join by going to the Team UBBDev homepage and click the link that says "Join This Team"

hehe I joined I like the visual better then seti@home and this is for a better cause 2pac I see you on there

I'll reg when my new comp comes..

i joined

Finally able to start... the weekend should prove interesting in the points race...

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).

Hey Neal.. they've upgraded the program a good bit since then...:)

Somebody named Asgoroth is still in the lead, with cal second, tho I think that'll be changing soon...:)

Too bad the program isn't multi-threaded.

Agreed... they continue to improve it tho.. welcome to the team Ryan

Guess my suggestion to Wayne helped..:D

Except that they chose the one we decided to not do...

didn't want any competition...:D

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..

I think the point system is a little wacked out.

Guys, i've joined the team

Grtz,

Elwinz

Sounds good, I'll join later.

I just brought the team up to #20.

My mom died of cancer in February. This is a good cause.

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

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...

I just asked because you were putting up a good number of results, fast.. Had to add a couple more machines too keep ahead..

Bad news guys. It doesnt work with my version of Windows XP.

what version u got?? i m using 2463 and im doing awesome

Just climbed over 500 results returned with 535 tonight!

Go Team!!!



Asgoroth is still kicking my butt...

Results are back to zero!

umm.. no they aren't! They are rebuilding the database starting from ~ a month ago.

Deb's in the lead with 3 and cal's close on her heels with 1!

cal streaks ahead into the lead with 10! Deb is close behind with 9, but can she keep cal in sight?

Stay tuned!

cal is maintaining his lead.. widening it over Deb as the weekend starts... Allen finally gets his act together and shows up, with newcomer Asgoroth jumping into 4th place his first day..

baahh.. I even bored myself..:D

Asgoroth is kickin tail and we are now up to 23 ubbdev members taking part, With almost 600 results returned, it seems we are picking up the pace... go team!

Ive signed up on the team :D, i think il run it on 4pcs

What do you do to earn points?

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

Which part of Texas are you from Allen? I'm from San Antonio ... yes I am ... yeah ...

Hey Animeman Is that you from UDBZ?!? If you are I'm LV there.

This include us mac users??

Only if they develop a client for Macs, I am not sure if they plan to... it states on their site what they develop for.

Update: >1600 results returned so far!

I joined =)

Will it work for my Alien Work Machine that beats any PC atm?

Most likely

Congrats!

Team UBBDev

OK, I joined the UBBDev team and my spare cpu processing power is cranking away.

I'm sorry that I hadn't joined sooner. I thought that it wouldn't work on my pc.

For those that haven't signed up yet, please do so...it's a worthy cause.



-Tacks

I'm in, just signed up. I have a machine that sits on the internet and just servers up images....It now feels that it has a purpose.

Wow, I'm a UBBDev team member...wo0t!

Thanks to everyone that is signing up to help!

I've tried to join... but everytime I run the setup program, I get a fatal error.

I've been running SETI@Home since the very beginning but I decided today to install UD on two always on computers and join them under the TeamUBB dev.

I'm joining. Maybe I can get it to work on an nt server. It's at my mothers workplace and it supports their site: mct.ro

This thing isn't working for me...... when I try to register i keep getting: the password you have provided doesn't match the one in our records.

I was having that problem last night as well. UD must be having some techinical difficulties.

I gues my home machines will have to be on hold until UD fixes this problem.

I was confused by this too. To register you must download and run the client. You don't preregister through their web site.

I have registered previously. I'm running the client at work and ahve an active UD account.

I'm gonna join this once I find out how to join up and stuff like that. -_-

Lord Dexter: Here are two links to get you started.

Team UBBDev
UD Home

Mewtwo: I was able to log on this evening from home. Try it, you may succeed too.

Yes, It worked! I'm on my way to join the Team!

You have to register once, through the client, and then you can use the same account on more computers.

hmmm...... worked fine. did about 50% in two hours. But then, I don't know why, it became real slow...
