TPS prime pages password
 
Back in 2007, MooooMoo created the this page: [URL]http://primes.utm.edu/bios/page.php?id=949[/URL] when TPS found a twin. As you know, he went AWOL a year and a half ago, and the descriptive data on that page is out of date. Since I'm the project leader now, I'd like to update that data. I explained the situation in an email to Chris Caldwell (maintainer of the prime pages site) two weeks ago, but I haven't received a response yet.

So I'm trying a different way of getting the password needed to change that page. When MooooMoo created that account and its password, I'm hoping that he shared it with one or more members. If that's the case, one or more of you also has the password, and I'd appreciate it if you PM it to me.

Have you tried "password" :razz:

[QUOTE=cipher;254037]Have you tried "password" :razz:[/QUOTE]
Didn't work :smile: I also tried some other possible passwords like "pass", "qwerty", "tpstps", "195000", and "123456". None of them worked either.

The only other person I can think of who might have the password is gribozavr. But if I ever get the password, I'll share it with a few people here so that the project's info can still be maintained if I don't have access to the internet for a long period of time.

I don't know the password.

I've pretty much exhausted all options now, and I still don't have the password :sad:

Here's what I've done:
February 13th: Sent an email to [EMAIL="caldwell@utm.edu"]caldwell@utm.edu[/EMAIL] explaining the situation and asking for the password.
Result: Didn't get a response

February 25th: Sent a followup email to Chris Caldwell
Result: Still didn't get a response

February 28th: Asked for the password in this thread
Result: Nobody knew the password

February 28th: PMed MooMoo2 for the password, since several users PMed me that MooMoo2 was indeed MooooMoo, the TPS founder
Result: MooMoo2 hasn't logged in since February 23rd and didn't reply to my PM.

February 28th-March1st: Tried several possible password combinations like "tpstps", "195000", "password", and several others.
Result: None of them worked.

March 1st: Used this contact form: [URL]http://primes.utm.edu/primes/includes/mail.php[/URL] to explain the situation and ask for the password
Result: Still no response.

Chris Caldwell has just given me the password, and I've shared it with three other members. The project's descriptive data is now up to date.
