[QUOTE=pb386;157178]Any chance I can join your search?[/QUOTE]Any chance that "pb" in your nick stands for "Peter Benson"? :wink:

I thought that might come up at some point. It looks like I have become inadvertantly notorious.

Welcome....:bounce:
So how many machines do you have?

We'd like to coordinate- at least, learn precisely what ranges have been searched.

If you find a prime under this search, we ask that you credit RPS as the team/group; however, we do not request that you share credit with any sievers.

What do you mean "inadvertently notorious"?

Why so? He sieved by himself, he made everything by his own, I don't get your position.

I don't know whether or not you're Benson, but if you are, could you tell me what ranges you've searched for k=19? Just curious, because I've searched that k for a very long time, so I want to know what part of my work was duplicated.

(Note: I released this k and stopped working on it a few months ago, but I'm still really curious about any work done on k=19)

[QUOTE=em99010pepe;157227]Why so? He sieved by himself, he made everything by his own, I don't get your position.[/QUOTE]pb386 asked if he can join the search, meaning using RPS' sieve files - in such a case it should be pretty obvious that RPS should be credited.
pb386, as others I am also interested about any work performed by you on k<300. It really doesn't make much sense to duplicate work... + what are your motives right now?

Thank you for your interest in our search. If you want to join us, you are welcome, either using our pre-sieved files (k=5 is sieved to about 300T = 3E14) in which case we expect people to credit our project, or using your own files, in which case the project credit is up to you.

I also hope, like others, that from now on we can coordinate our k<100 search to avoid waste of resources.

Thank you for the welcome. I am happy to share all the information I have on ranges I have tested & I agree that it would be a waste of resources to do otherwise. Until recently I have been unaware of your co-ordinated efforts & I apologise to anyone I have offended with my independent searching.

Your sieveing is much deeper than my individual efforts so it would be great to get pre-seived files. I am of course happy to credit the necessary programs/projects.

Peter has been sent 1580-1650k, the first unreserved block.

I am reserving 1650-1700k.

The sieve is still running for candidates above 1850k; it is at 356T presently. Files in 1850-1900k will be available soon.
