Best Wishes to all for a Happy Christmas and a Healthy New Year If you are still short of Ebola work then please read the previous 9 pages of this thread. The answer of how to get more work has been answered at least 10 times (and no I did not bother to count) so there is no need to ask again. None of which have actually gotten me any WUs |

They will get some only to people crunching 24/7/365. So, you have to support non-OET1 WCG sub-projects continually days and weeks and then you might get some. That is the current status. You can take it or leave it, but you can't do anything with it. Cheers.  Crunching@Home since January 13 2000. Shrubbing@Home since January 5 2006  |

Assume for now that this is just a lull during the holidays and that things pick up a bit again after New Years Day... I picked up several OET workunits around 1:00 GMT so I doubt there's a holiday lull. Keep trying for them!Well, overnight three hosts picked up about 30WUs among them, but those are all machines that are not accessible remotely, so I don't know how the progress on those is. While I understand that this is a low-priority project, the fact that even MSN made advertising for this WCG project specifically, I think the fact that actual OET work is so few and far between, will not be a good advertising for the WCG efforts in general...  |

It is "few" for you or me, but if you look at the total of WUs being crunched (aprox 20K WUs per day), which is 100% of what is being made available to crunch, it's not that "few"  . CJSL Crunching for a brighter future... |

Just snagged another 18 OET WUs around 4:30 am MT (11:30 MT GMT). I've had this happen a couple times in the past two weeks where I'm catching a set of these OET WUs early morning local time (around midday GMT).
So for those who are looking to snag some action here, you now have some additional information on when to set yourself up to pick up some OET WUs. Looking now to crunch the set I got this morning to make my bronze badge before YE 2014.  |

This is ridiculous. You have to be getting more work at the right time or play some silly game to snag more work load.
Is the only way to get a badge is to play this game? Sounds like DDDT2 all over again. |

crontab? Guess you're running Windows? (or a Mac...) |
