        • That makes you think about the magnitude of the project they are attempting. After reading about it, it is a project that I feel everyone should be involved in. The 'Poly team only has 36 members and we are verging on the top 100 teams. It sure would be nice if others could join up.

          • 4th place in results returned after two weeks. Has 'Poly lost the competitive spirit?

            • The number of returned results is pretty irrelevant. Earlier this year my computer spent 150 hours with one package. I did got something like 4500 points from that one too though

              • My laptop completed a unit, sent the results to the server and then started to download a new unit. It stopped at 28k downloaded, stood there for maybe a minute, then said it was backing out. Everytime i restart it, it tries to do the same:
                1- Resends the results
                2- starts downloading a new unit
                3- stops at +/- 28k
                4- backs out and just waits.

                Anybody else experience this?
                What?

                          • So, I have downloaded it, and joined the 'poly team. Pretty cool idea, and one that I'm happy to contribute to. And anything that helps promote Apolyton, is a worthy cause

                            • So...after 6 hours and 31 minutes, I get a score of 187.

                              Man, it sure is a long way up to the 100,000+ that Asher sports.
