Overclockers.com Rosetta Team - March Event 2011 - Sign Up Thread

[baditude_df]

Welcome to the Overclockers.com Rosetta Team -March Event 2011!

You MUST sign up in this thread and be actively crunching in order to participate in the contest, and be eligible for the prize draws.

Event Start date is Monday February 21st. That's right, I want to be in full swing by the time March Rolls around!

Please have BIONC downloaded and running under overclockers.com well in advance to the even start date to avoid problems and stabilize your RAC.

To Download the BOINC manager go HERE (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php).

There will be no set point requirements for this competition, but you must have a sustained minimum RAC (Recent Average Credit) of 500 to be eligible for the weekly prize draws.

Participants will be be recorded as they sign up. RAC will be recorded at each prize draw to determine who's name goes into the draw.
Draws will be done at random.org (http://www.random.org/account/), and entry confirmation will be provided upon request.

Prizes will be in the form of Electronic Gift Certificates from newegg.com(.ca).
There will be 1 biweekly prize of $50 until we reach 15th place, with more unlockable as certain pre-determined contest goals are achieved!
During the last Rosie RAC Harvest in November, all goals were achieved and all bonus prizes were thrown into he prize pool so make sure to give it all you got!

This just in!
The Generous folks at Biostar (http://www.biostar.com.tw/), by way of our good friend and forum moderator splat (http://www.overclockers.com/forums/member.php?u=15957), have seen fit to donate
two of their latest series AMD and Intel motherboards to the cause!

In order to give these puppies away we'll be holding an additional contest throughout the month of March!

This contest will follow the same structure as the RAC Harvest, and therefore be points based.

Each contestant will receive 1 entry into the draw per required amount of points crunched.

The required points per entry will be based on RAC (Recent Average Credit) and categorized per the table below.

RAC <1000 - 3,000 pts per entry
RAC 1000-3000 - 5,000 pts per entry
RAC 3000-5000 - 7,000 pts per entry
RAC 5000-7500 - 10,000 pts per entry
RAC >7500 - 12,500 pts per entry

Total points and RAC for each contestant have already been recorded, and will be recorded again at midnight of the 31st. After which, points will be tallied and entries made per RAC category then randomized by a third party.

Draws will be made on the 1st of April, and entry confirmation will be provided.

For details on these two excellent motherboards, head over to the front page announcement HERE! (http://www.overclockers.com/overclockerscom-rosetta-team-contest-march-2011/)

All I need on is help installing the BOINC client on a CentOS 5.5 server. If you got ideas, point me in the right direction via PM (keep this thread clean!). With just my main system, I'll level out around 2.5k RAC, but the server should bring that up to 4-5k.

I had more of less blundered into the Rosetta project because I wanted to run SETI as a long term stability test. But that was about the time SETI was having difficulties so I switched to Rosetta to have something to run. And for the heck of it, I put it on my laptop as well. Just before I left town for a few days, SETI seemed to be sorted out so I switched my desktop to that. I left my laptop on Rosetta, but then I broke the charging cord for that. :bang head Just after I left town, the contest was announced but I could see no way to switch my desktop to Rosetta as the Boinc GUI crashed when I tried to run it remotely via X. Anyway I'm back home, a replacement laptop PSU is here and by tonight (when present SETI tasks are complete) I'll have 6 cores happily crunching away on Rosetta WUs.

Short story: I'm in! :D (ET will just have to wait. ;) )

One of my new P67 boards just packed it in this week... I'll try to get a spare x58/920 rig back online to help out with the RAC.

We had a new member named Maurice join the team today, and it says he's from Netherlands. Since Tilburg is in Netherlands, it's a safe bet that's him and he simply made an error. I PM'd him to make sure before adding his name to the roster.

OK, I'll add you all to the roster when I get back from work today.

Anyone can sign up on any day up until the last day of the contest, it really doesn't matter. The earlier you sign up, the more prizes you will be eligable for that's all, so it's definitely in everyone's best interest to sign up early and get their RAC to an appropriate level ASAP.

Again, please... SIGN UP ONLY IN THIS THREAD, AND PLEASE USE THE PROPER FORMAT.

Thank you.

And in case any of you missed it, you do need to hold a minimum RAC of 500 to be eligible for the bi-weekly draws, and obviously the more you crunch the better chance you'll have of winning a motherboard or the unlockable prizes.

Thanks for your support everybody.

[Dooms101]

I don't know crap about Rosetta, and I was just wondering how the RAC stat works. I've folded a good 12hours total or so and it's at ~160.

Please remember that you need to carry a minimum RAC of 500 to be entered into the bi weekly draws, and obviously the more you crunch the better chance you have of walking away with any of the other prizes.

I know some of you Rosetta folks have helped us Team 32 guys Fold for contests in the past, so I figured I'd slide on over and return some CPU cycles.

Hey guys, I've been lurking these threads for a while and finally decided to join for this, great opportunity to help and good good prizes :)

OCF Name :Skillz2ki11
Boinc Nickname: Alex (thats all I registered as, I'm not sure if thats what it is using it as, any ideas?)

[Skillz2ki11]

I found a user on BOINC/Rosetta registered as 'Alex', but they have not done anything since 2005 and are not part of a team. Is that you? If so, then you need to get BOINC installed on PCs you presently own and join the Overclockers.com team.

If you're already crunching, then open the BOINC manager and use that to navigate to "Your Account" web page which will list your BOINC/Rosetta account name.[/QUOTE]

I just looked through the team info for overclockers.com, and I am registered as Alex. I joined today and have 0 credit so far, but am crunching right now. If it helps I am registered in the US.

Not sure if it helps but I am on this page. (it might not be the same for you)

Hi all,

I used to fold for OC.com back in the day. I've a few questions about how to best utilize my workstation. I've got a couple 5770HD, AMD cards. Can I configure these to crunch, or are they automatically included when I install the rosetta project?

Rosetta won't utilize the Gfx cards at all. What alot of people do is have the CPU running rosetta and the gfx cards folding.
