Nice going msattler. And thank you for making such a generous contribution even though US Navy Team was not the winner of the auction! You're still a winner in my book. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Thank You for pointing that out........ zeitgeistmovie had not been using the '.' when referring to the team in his first posts.....ooops....maybe he was and I missed it. When you are joining a team and put 'Seti' in the search field, the results apparently come up in a more or less random order each time.....the SETI USA name must have been at the top the first time....... I must correct the team I joined.....thanx again.... My bad.......now fixed. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Congratulations to Seti.USA and congratulations to Mark who has given proof to the line.....everyone has a price! :) The big winner is of course Boinc/Seti with a fine financial donation and that ain't bad. Mark this was a wonderful idea, you and the kitties are to be commended! |

This is the correct team to join. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/team_display.php?teamid=115396 The team that currently holds #1 for SETI is the correct team.... The rest are splinter groups :) Like the one you are a member of now.. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/team_display.php?teamid=33730 is not the correct team. But until I have moved the donation you can be where you want. |

This is the correct team to join. You can double check me, but it should have been corrected earlier this afternoon when I made my last post here....... SETI.USA "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I waited a couple of days before I posted this item. Still was a great idea of msattler to auction off his farm for the betterment of SETI. This was from naxpworld on the US Navy team. I would be willing to submit up to $150 monthly to add to our bid. I would foward the payments to Yank 15days before each monthly payment donation if Yank agrees, I would also be willing to add an initial $200 to the $500 bid making it an initial $700 bid and $150 monthly payments for 12 months. Let me know what you think. As an additional note , my servers will be down for 2-3 weeks , Im moving them to a better location with better cooling and am going to add the entire farm of servers by summer (120)Dual Core and Quad Core PCs but until then I can support with this server farm thats for sale. Man O'man I wish that I had seen this entry a couple of days ago. We could of had the winning bid if this had been posted on the SETI message board under 'crunching numbers'. http://boinc.mundayweb.com/teamStats.php?userID=14824 |

Question: Do the credits of a banished member contribute to his/her team? F. |

I think some members of BOINC Synergy are not happy that their team did not win. Yeah so I have heard. Alas we cant get any comments from the owner if the farm as every time I mention him the thread gets deleted. Oh well, such is life in the ET searching universe - the mods have to do something to pass the time. Fred, yes the user in question still shows up the the winning team (as a banned member), so it appears as though his crunching is being counted |

Could there be a team of just banished users.Could they just be given a penance, like 100,000 credits, and then forgiveness? |

I think some members of BOINC Synergy are not happy that their team did not win. Remember that "the mods" are not a monolithic block, it could be "some mods" and there are others that don't agree with the actions taken -- and aren't aware of them. I don't know why Mark was banned. I'd suggest posting to the setimods address and asking. |

Sort of "community service" ?? ;) Nice idea but the Frozen Penny could work that off in a few days whereas if Keith T (for example - sorry for taking your handle in vain) transgressed, it would take him about 4 years to work it off.
