Instead of messing around with Sebastian (who I'm not sure really wants to continue with Formula Boinc), why don't we all move to Boinc Games? Newer and probably not quite ready for prime time yet but would it be any worse than what we have here? (boincgames.com). Essentially the same format as Formula Boinc.
Hi
I think BOINC Games (BG) have come across a lot of issues themselves, as I have helped them (by way of giving a reference) with a web developer who I thought would be able to fix the issues they had with both their website *and* their forum.
At least here, the forum works correctly and the FB stats "back-office" coding works well pretty much 99% of the time.
But volunteers are free to choose who they want to support and which projects to crunch for and when.
And there is absolutely no reason why volunteers cannot support both the FB Sprints as well as the BG Sprints, as they are based upon different sports and which take place on different dates so the Sprints do not usually clash most of the time - and when they do, I liaise with the BG admins so we do not both choose the same project !
And both the FB Marathon and the BG equivalent are based on team stats for each project so teams can take part in both !
regards
Tim
