"Yes - it's ok to add the points to Boincstats, however, when new projects get launched here and there is no novel work being done on the UCT : Malariacontrol.net project, we will probably close it down...but time will tell."

OK Willy, let's go go go ....

Al.

Go go go .....

ROFL! I jinxed it

Has been done for over a day now - I'll try and reach Christopher via another project and see what's happening.

Sorry about that Willy.

Al.

What did you do Al ? been down too long now, my finished WU's expire soon.. hope it comes back up.

It's up and taking uploads again.

Al.

See it was YOU!
As soon as I post about it, you fixed it and acted like nothing happened
on the bright side, got my WU's in just before they expired

Luckily I only had one straggler and that got in on time. Nice to see credit being granted regularly too.

Give it a week or so and I'll suggest Willy adds it to the stats again ...

If he's not to busy building a shed ...

Al.

Well, if it wasn't for the shed, the project would be added by now

I'm sorely tempted to set up Sheds@Home ...

A brute-force dimensions/footings/timber/roofing combinational matrix to determine exactly the optimal structure to hide the BOINC farm from the wife.

And indeed hide from the wife

Back on topic: It would be cool if you could add the project. It was a bit unfortunate that they had a lab shutdown South Africa? Hot? Surely not ...

Al.

Well, you can now sign up for UTC on BAM, but you can't do anything else. I hope my computers don't sync with BAM before Willy gets it all done.

Well, unlike I feared, UCT was not disconnected when the managers synced with BAM. However my resources at the site got set to 0 (zero). I am able to control UCT somewhat from the host pages, but it is not showing up on the resources page. Currently, it is not showing up the stats side either, so I hope all will rectify after the daily update.

For the last five or so projects, it happened exactly the same way. You could find your account, but it didn't show up on the resources page for two or three days. Looks like the same process with this project. Nothing to worry about.

My biggest fear is the last two or three projects that I remember finding in BAM after they were added, I forgot to check the "Attach All Hosts Now" button, and they disconnected at the next sync. That did not happen this time, I don't know if Willy changed something, or if it was because the one I checked was using 6.1, though the host pages for the others did say "checking" before they were synced (or more accurately before I checked the "Attach" check box).

Now just to get the UCT stats on the detailed stats page.

The signature graphics shows this project as "UCT Malar" instead of UCT Malaria.

Its worth fixing !?

There's a character limit to the names shown on signatures, if you'll notice none of the project names are more than 9 characters, including spaces.

Now it makes sense. Thanks.
