IBM should pass 100 million results in about 11 days. That is if they maintain the amount of results they got yesterday. I can remember when Marist College was number one in results but IBM recently passed them and now has more results than the next four members. This trend will likely continue since IBM has more results on a daily basis than about the next 10 members.

A significant milestone for IBM as a member
---------------------------------------- For IBM as a team, they will lose their #1 spot in the Points and Results rankings by the end of May.  In passing I note that WCG should pass a trio of significant milestones in the next 4 months: RunTime 1,000,000 years est Jul 30 [Corrected - Tks Joe] Points 1,000,000,000,000 pts est May 8 Results 2,000,000,000 res est Jun 29 And then, of course, we have the 10th birthday celebrations. (estimates based on last 28 days crunching) ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by jonnieb-uk at Mar 29, 2014 12:02:10 AM] |

RunTime 1,000 years est Jul 30 Must be a typo. I think you meant 1,000,000(10^6) years. Cheers

I think that even if ripple passes them, it wont be long before ripple fizzles out. We will take our points and go back to our old teams.  |

Me thinks that you mean ripple will pass them. Based on the last 28 days crunching Ripple will pass IBM in RunTime 17 days; Points 30 days; Results 54 days. Ripple have added 62 members, and there have been 39 retirements since the announcement that CfG was to cease sometime in April and overall there has been a slight increase in Ripple's crunching. The Ripple contribution to WCG RunTime Points Results So it will be "A damn close run thing"  We will take our points and go back to our old teams. I get your meaning but of course Note: Points gained while with a team will remain with that team. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by jonnieb-uk at Apr 2, 2014 4:29:25 PM] |
