Then the lower-right cells of the tables will show the general total.

I was also thinking a total line for each table would be a nice addition.

That summary is already available on the Overall System Progress report. The whole reason of producing the Cost per Factor Found report was to break down the cost to a higher granularity, as the average across all bit levels doesn't really make sense as each level costs twice as much as the previous, with a slightly smaller chance of finding a factor.

Additionally, an overall average really doesn't make sense as each range has a different cost; the larger the exponent, the less time it takes to trial factor. Within say a 10M range this isn't hugely noticeable, but between say 24M and 45M it definitely is.

Number of factors is incorrect if P-1 does a double find...
I can live with this...
BTW, the submission spider is nice! Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that something similar has been kicked around before, but I have not been able to track it down. Sorry for:

I currently have a number of P-1's which have only been taken to 71 bits. At the time, there were no 72 bit exponents available. Now, I am wondering if I can legitimately take these to 72 first, and then run P-1.

Certainly you can.

However, please note that if these were assigned to you by G72 then you won't get the TF credit for the work from 71 to 72 on G72 because the system isn't watching for this and it would be a pain (and extra load on PrimeNet) to do so.

You will, of course, get the credit on PrimeNet.

Thanks very much, chalsall. It is good to know.

If I join the team, do my GHz-Days stop going to me?

It's a question of feeding my ego and the Top Producers list. As ktony said, it's my sport's score page.

No you will still get your credits. I am on the team and also about 40th overall and 20-something in TF on the top producers list.
