Posted 14 Jan 2022 by McShane of TSBT Further to above . Is project Back off has some bearing on this error and what does it mean? Why is the Backoff? |

Error 408
(Message 2457)
Posted 14 Jan 2022 by McShane of TSBT I have over a 1000 tasks ready to be reported and hundreds to be updated. Can anybody tell me what error 408 means: The best I got from google is that it is some sort of transient HTTP error. Since other projects working fine, I guess it is related to a problem in TNGrid Server. |

Posted 19 Sep 2020 by McShane of TSBT A few days ago I had to change my email address and Password. I have lost over 2.5Billion credits overall and 18 projects are not showing in the stats. Please confirm that my stats are exported and the XML details are correct. |

Posted 4 Mar 2019 by McShane of TSBT @Gunner Hjern.By way of protecting myself since you have implicated me (I changed my name from Cruncher Pete to PeterJ.Shane for security reasons) Let me explain a couple of things. 1. I can assure you that it is legitimate to set your cache to 10Days for I need a number of WU's downloaded to me that will last that long as I am not always available to check my machines every day. Since the maximum number of WU's that is allowed as maximum on each machine is 512 I realized that that is not enough to last me 10 days so I created another instance of BOINC Client on the same machine. I have no idea where you got the idea that I needed to complete these WU's in 24 hours. As you can see now that the Challenge has started they were all completed, uploaded and credited after the challenge started. 2. I have a number of 64 core/thread computers and a horde of others. In order to be a fair competition, do you expect me to switch off some of my machines to match yours thereby slowing the results of the project? And I suppose you would than call this a fair competition. I have paid for my computers out of my own pocket and they are all dedicated to helping Scientific Research. I am sure that the Admin of this project will vouch for my efforts to help this project for I have been crunching it long before the challenge started. 3. I can assure that what I am doing is not cheating and I take offense that you insinuate that I am. Please read up on how BOINC works, what is allowed and what is not. Further more what I am doing is legal and is used by many users and the method is available to all users. May I suggest that you do a bit of studying before you open your mouth and call people cheaters. I hope that explains the reasons for my high scores. Should you wish to find more information on it, please PM me and I will send you the links where you can find more information on how to use BOINC. |

Posted 4 Mar 2019 by McShane of TSBT Maybe Zioriga could finish his tasks in due time - if he really have those monster machines that the listing says - but I think Cruncher Pete must have miscalculated a bit: |
