Calling all Team England (Boinc) members!

The team forum is back online after a lengthy absence due to technical problems.
The whole board has had a bit of a \'spring-clean\' and there is a new \'Members Only\' section where team members can really get to grips with BOINCing in general and the Projects in particular!
The Castle Cafe is open for business with the usual forum games to help you unwind.

And of course - we always welcome new members........

Pete, I\'m sorry if this is off topic, but reluctantly, I feel I have to respond to comments made earlier in the thread.


I don\'t quite understand why all this seems to be new to you, except that the Team England \"old hands\" used not to be much in evidence in the BBC forum...

...So the idea of counting complete models and encouraging friendly rivalry between teams was (and is) primarily a way of encouraging people to complete their BBC models before transferring.


On the 30th June 2006 I started a thread listing the progress of Team England\'s leading models. Within this thread we also started counting our completed models. We were, I believe, the first team to do so.

On the 28th August 2006, RS authored a thread entitled \'Definition of a finished model\', which sought to clarify the criteria to be used in declaring a model complete.

From the very beginning I, and several Team England members, have been posting on the BBC forum enjoying the friendly rivalry that has always existed with Team Wales, the only other significant national team at that time, both teams realizing the importance of maintaining an interest in the project, particularly after the restart in April last year. Perhaps, someone joining the experiment at a later date would not be aware of this. I don’t think anyone else would really question Team England’s commitment or seek to lecture them on the benefits to the project of generating team rivalries.

I also find it difficult to understand why a respected and valuable member of the project and Team England should be abused for seeking to re-establish the rules of the ’competition’. I found the above remarks, therefore, unwarranted, unpleasant and unjust.

Finally, to return to the topic, this was Carl’s definition of a finished model:

my definition (which is what everything relies on ;-) is that a model has all the trickle up through the last one (timestep 4147200); even if files weren\'t uploaded -- the trickles now give us enough information to determine the state of your \"world.\"

Now, can we get back to friendly games?
