For those with nvidia GPUs, take a look at Mr Kevvy's script to boost your output from 5-10%. |

2013: 729 2014: 838 2015: 885 Let's make the increase bigger than the previous 2 years and hopefully we'll get over: 1,000 SETIzens to participate...for the 1st TiMe eVeR! |

Hello all SETIzens! . . Well I have registered ... . . The numbers still seem rather low but there is a week or two left :) |

True...so I'll be reporting a tally of registered SETIzens for WoW 2016. But since I don't want anyone to get annoyed with daily updates, my mascot "Count von Count" will only be posting on "prime-number"-days before the event" So starting:
on July 29th (another prime #) with 17-days left (a prime #) before WoW starts expect Count von Count to provide you with: |

With days and 17hrs left before the start of the SETI@home WoW event 2016, Count von Count reports: There are currently ~227 SETIzens registered for the event. This is an increase of ~29/day since Stephen pointed out 2 days ago: . . The numbers still seem rather low but there is a week or two left :) The Yip-Yips are looking attentively to see if the SETIzen community will start to mobilize itself in greater numbers in order to top 1,000 participants for the 1st time ever! Next update to be provided: 13-days (and possible 13hrs:13mins:13sec)prior to the big event ...with a possible special feature: Count von Count has asked Kermit the Frog to interview the Yip-Yips. Are you getting "all primed up"?!? If so, tell your fellow SETIzens to sign up! Otherwise, just register...since that's all you really need to do to participate! |

. . If that rate of enlistment keeps up (with maybe a small increase) then we might have that magic number of 1000 participants you are hoping for. |

The Knights Who Say Ni! team members are on the way. We hope to have well over 100 again this year in the 2016 Wow! |

with: days and 13hrs:13min left, Count von Count reports: There are currently ~389 SETIzens registered for the event. As was hoped, Kermit the Frog was able to track down the Yip-Yips for an interview. They're pleased to see a significant increase since they've landed...but they're not yet certain if the current momentum will be enough to top 1,000. They plan on using Earth technology to see if they can provide Kermit with a better answer during the week to come. Will their reponse be: Nop-nop-nop...or Yep-yep-yep! It all depends on you. So tell your fellow SETIzens to sign up! Otherwise, just register...since that's all you really need to do to participate. Next update: in 2 days with 11 days before the start of the big event! |

Many KWSN got lost or fell down on the way to registration. Over 70 of us did show for the start. Other teams seem a bit low also. |

Many KWSN got lost or fell down on the way to registration. I love that pic! Keep in mind that SETIzens can always register after WoW has started. That's why I stopped my ridiculous countdown. Plus, I lost my inspiration. Maybe we'll see the Yip-Yips in another post. Or maybe even Gonzo...since he thinks he's an alien! lol T -2h29mins. |

. . Now I feel lost, it seems that it only counts the output of one machine. I thought it was the output for the whole account. :( |

why do you say that Stephen? Have you looked at each computer's daily output today to see what they were? Free DC or boincstats? |
