Please join our sideshow to the Kings International Gauntlet 2007. Team England were too late to enter the Gauntlet and have decided to support the Gauntlet by having a SETI Sideshow. All teams are welcome to join us. The Team England SETI Sideshow will run in parallel to the Gauntlet and will start on Sunday the 4th of November 2007 at 20:00 hrs GMT+1 and will end at Sunday the 18th of November 2007 at 20:00 hr GMT+1. At the beginning of each day, starting on 4th November, we and any other team who wishes to join the Sideshow, will publish a snapshot of the boincstats at 20:00, an example below; It will be a simple matter of taking away the previous days total from the latest to determine how many credits the team has added in the past day, and to keep a cumulative total with an overall total at the end of the Sideshow on 18th November. There are no restrictions of how many or can crunch for SETI during the Sideshow, and even new joiners during the Sideshow can contribute. Please join us. If we can't be in the gauntlet, then let's support it by crunching as much as we can in the Sideshow. All you need to do to enter is to say that your team is in, and to publish a snapshot of your boincstats each day at the agreed time and keep your daily, cumulative and final credit scores. It's all for a bit of fun and to give SETI a bit of a boost. Oh, and may the best team win ;) flaming balloons |

too late to join??? This is in the Boinc synergy fora:
so, one week from the 21st is the 28th or there abouts. I'd make some contact with someone and try to join in. |

too late to join??? This is in the Boinc synergy fora: I got this from filmfreak two days ago; "As you can see on the gauntlet page, no more teams can sign up for the gauntlet. I already have refused to add several teams, so unfortunately I cannot add you, that would not be very nice to the other teams." flaming balloons |

so, it looks like team members of already joined teams can be added, but not teams themselves. atleast that's how I'm reading it. Hmmmm,, Join BoincSynergy and get added into the race???? Well, it might be a solution anyway. |

so, it looks like team members of already joined teams can be added, but not teams themselves. Sounds like a good deal to me. So long as all BoincSynergy members who are not part of the Gauntlet join Team England (Boinc) we'll call it a deal shall we ? :) flaming balloons |

LOL I'm just trying to think of a way for you (yourself) to participate. Not start any global trends or such. |

I tell ya what....If your team has representation in Rosetta, then as soon as the gauntlet is over, I'll personally match your contribution as a member of your team at Rosetta (I.E you do 5K for BS at the Gauntlet, I'll do 5K for team England at Rosetta. I did briefly serve the the "royal Signals" in 1990 (part of the US/UK NCO exchange program), so I'm pro England. Yeah, I know Richard. Been trying to get there for the last hour, Hope Zain notices. |

I'll even add more, I'll match any/all team members from Team England who joins BoincSynergy for the Gauntlet point for point at Rosetta when the Gauntlets over. So, get everyone to sign up at BS (when the site is back up), let me know who I owe credit for, and join on in. I owe Rosetta 300K anyway, so I don't care which team gets the credit. |

the BS site is back up. here's the webpage you need to sign up for the Gaunlet with BS. Include your username and Account number. Ofcourse you'll have to register to post there. |

Thanks for your interesting proposition Astro. Yes Team England crunch for Rosetta and other projects as well. But my motivation for the Sideshow is primarily fun, but also to get some of our members who are rooted in Climate crunching to come and have a go at crunching for SETI, even if for only a brief period. A taste of what you're missing can only do you good! :) flaming balloons |

To complete the example, at the beginning of each day, starting on 4th November, we and any other team who wishes to join the Sideshow, will publish a snapshot of the boincstats at 20:00, an example below; It will be a simple matter of taking away the previous days total from the latest to determine how many credits the team has added in the past day, and to keep a cumulative total with an overall total at the end of the Sideshow on 18th November. Team England SETI credits for the past day; 1,344,932 - 1,340,772 = 4,160 flaming balloons |

I thank my subjects for bringing this tournament to SETI, even in the shadow of the Gauntlet. I welcome all for your interest and participation. My good Lord Camoys bids me to display a wall covering which my Team England will continue to refresh as The Team England SETI Sideshow proceeds. Join Team England Team England Forum |
