I've staked unofficial claim on the 801M range, moving them from 2^64 to 2^70. Once I get that done, I'll continue in 802M. Those two blocks will last me all year (unless I get a new GPU

)

Just wondering if this thread should be moved to the Lone Mersenne Hunters sub-forum, since it seems it is now being used to coordinate such work.

Any chance of getting the currently-being-worked-on-ranges information
into the "List of LoneMersenneHunter ranges currently out" sticky? Having
the active regions listed in one place would be very helpful.

PM Garo to update his sticky that already exists.

If everyone could either PM me the ranges they are working on or post in this thread I will update the sticky next weekend - would like to do it in one pass and gather all the info first.

I'm still doing a bunch of P-1 factoring in the 1.9M range, but I've been registering the assignments with Primenet, so I'm not sure it's strictly necessary for me to "register" them here in this thread.

garo · 2011-09-04, 20:45

Not really. This thread is only for those who are doing large ranges and do not register everything they are planning to do with Primenet. See above for discussion on how trying to reserve a million exponents at once can get people locked out.

PS: Sticky is updated.

Understood. I used to work in 1.9M without reserving it, but I had a few incidents where I reported a factor for an exponent that was out for ECM, so I started using the server for assignments. The amount of work I do is well below the limits for which I'd be locked out.

I'm doing a bunch of P-1 in the 10M range, and I can't register the exponents, although they're not assigned nor do they look "weird" that I can tell (for example). Does anyone know why the 10M range is (still?) "locked" against assignment registration (note: it's not locked against accepting results; to wit).

When I did a bit of P-1 in the 19M range, I noticed the same problem. I think 10M-20M is locked, but I am unsure the reasons.

PrimeNet will not allow registering any double checked exponent beyond 10M.
Which is not a problem unless you are doing loads of those, like I did until James started doing the same, and faster.
