[QUOTE=ATH;557643]New TC: [M]53571863[/M][/QUOTE]
I have it registered and it is in the front of the line.

[QUOTE=mathwiz;557597]Why are we managing these checks manually? Why are any humans involved in manually doling out and coordinating assignments?[/quote]When we see a machine that may be diverging from reality or someone has has a set-up that they are tuning to get the max, it maybe a good idea for a fast turn around. Yes, the server will eventually assign them. But, dealing with these troubled results before they become the last in queue is helpful. Occasionally they need a QC. People like doing different types of work.

slaur/nomead likes to find exponents with errors and do the TC on them.
[QUOTE=moebius;557604]One thing makes little sense to me. Why does the fastest processor get the smallest exponents and not the other way around?[/QUOTE]
It is not always the fastest, rather those that can produce at a suitable and reliable rate. Also to get the Cat 0 assignments, one needs to agree to take them. This is only the clean-up work. In an ideal world, there should be no Cat 0 or even Cat 1 being assigned. Cat 2 and 3's should be completing and none expiring. Only when what were assigned as a higher Cat expires are Cat 1 and 0 assignments available. So, to pick up the pieces and sweep this tail end up a few machines are volunteered to do this. It is the users choice.
[QUOTE=moebius;557606]To my another statement. I realize that the creators of the project are entitled to create a slightly better chance of finding a prime number for themselves after 25 years of computing. Even though individual people now have twice the computing power as the rest of the users. I think that overall a slightly higher throughput could be achieved if the assignment rules were different.[/QUOTE]George does not self serve any special exponents to himself. If you look at the top producers list, Ryan is doing ECM, Ben is spending money on cloud servers to run this, the next 3 are mainly TF which does not give a chance of finding a prime, Curtis has found primes. No one person is more likely to be assigned the next prime (except by total number of assignments).

There are threads about assignment rules elsewhere. You can make suggestions there.

[QUOTE=Uncwilly;557647]George does not self serve any special exponents to himself.[/QUOTE]

That's mostly true. He self-assigns CERTs, though, if the first run was erroneous.

Took the above. Should have it done in the next three weeks, but my systems will be running unattended.

[QUOTE=Mark Rose;557816]Took the above. Should have it done in the next three weeks, but my systems will be running unattended.[/QUOTE]
Cool. I updated the list. When I ran my query a Cat 0 popped up. I snagged it. There are now 94 in the Cat 3 range.

Took these:

DoubleCheck=84731161,76,1
DoubleCheck=84815147,76,1
DoubleCheck=84878239,76,1
DoubleCheck=84985519,76,1
DoubleCheck=85192157,76,1

I took another 4 from the top of the LL triple check list.

Doublecheck=[M]56924737[/M],74,1

Refreshed the list. There are Cat 1 and Cat 2 available. Ryan has done a bunch of DC's and some mismatch (likely the original LL is wrong.)

I suppose I should have stopped and done a PRP check instead. (Sunk cost fallacy and all that: actually did stop an old PRP check that was only 20% done.)

Please use the [Μ] and [/Μ] tags (the green button on the entry screen), like this [M]82048927[/M]. It links to mersenne.org vs mersenne.ca (and thus shows the assignment history and status).

I took it. It's assigned on PrimeNet. Will do a PRP CERT test
