Nope!

I'm just wondering why I never get any of those methodology jobs.

All I get is the tough ones and sit and watch everyone else passing me by!

Harder

That's ok Harder, just look at the job/hit ratio. You'll see who's doing the most amount of "work"!

so i guess that if you get jobs that don't get alot of hits it means you aren't working as hard ?

in a manner of speaking...yes, if we're talking about types of WU's being crunched. esp. the method 1c1y-q1's...very low hit ratios but would finish extremely fadst. and yes, i've crunched quite a few of these too...brought down my hit ratios from >30 to 25 now.

a pretty good metric for contribution is the Points system as devised by the FAD creators...something which i am beginning to agree with more & more, btw.

keep crunching, everyone!

look at the hit/job ratio.

I know this probably isn't a dig at me, but then I don't know maybe it is.

I have spent a lot of time, money (I shudder to think) and effort setting up my home networked FAD crunching machine, and as I pay the electric, it's nice now and again to let the reigns go and see what it can do.

I have had a hit/job ratio of less than 20 since before I was even in the top 20. If I wanted to get it up to 30, I would need to spend the next 2 years doing nothing but sars/cancer with hit counts of over 50 to catch up.

To say that I am not working as hard is a completely unfair statement. All my machines crunch 24/7, they never get a let up.

Try telling my 2.5 barton that it isn't working as hard when it has been running at 50 degrees c for god knows how long and just completed its 6th wu for the day with a queue of 7 1e7u's and 21 1aq1-q1's (which I didn't ask for BTW) to go before lunch.
