...I meant to say with an exponent over 79.3 million.

Countdown to < 40M DCs
 

We're almost there... only 2 left.

Unfortunately I have my doubts about the machine running M39890261

It reports only 7 days left (and 12 days left to expiration), however this machine is very sporadic.

On a good day it'll move the needle nearly 4.5% daily. However it has inexplicable gaps where it goes several days at a time with nearly zero progress.

It recently went 12 days between check-ins during which it only progressed 1.6% (between May 4 and May 16).

Then it went another 5 days silent from May 18 to May 23 and only progressed 1.5%

Anyway, just wanted to say it could be a close one, and we'll just hope this user keeps it going at it's top speed of 4.5% per day in which case it may actually finish in 5-6 days.

Only one left now.

However, the original result for [M]39890261[/M] might turn out to be bad, based on the track record of the machine in question.

It's probably good though, because the bad results date from several years before this particular result was turned in.

[QUOTE=GP2;459817]Only one left now.

Ok we'll be ready!

That system does have a spotty track record... lifetime of 12 bad, 27 good.

That result came in June 2008 (just about the end of the Primenet v4 era) and it's most recent bad result was a couple years earlier in Jan 2006.

Besides this exponent, there's only one other "unknown" by that CPU: [M]41443327[/M]

ok lets just update the new count for 42,000,000 which is around 2000:smile:

Someone jumped the gun. Maybe. The computer failed to check in yesterday which, historically, was an indicator that it might not check in for a few more days and it would have zero progress done.

I guess we'll know if/when it finishes up.

It was pretty warm today for March.

[QUOTE=ATH;459887]It was pretty warm today for March.[/QUOTE]

Whoops... the dangers of cut-and-paste. :smile: Thanks, good catch.

... AND THEN THERE WERE FIVE!
 

So, just about 3-1/2 month after the 71,000,000 milestone, we are about to get to the 72 million.
