Yeah, quite easy.

There is now a "Unreserve all of these" button on the LL TF, DC TF, LL P-1 and DC P-1 assignment pages.

Can weyou rename the buttons to "Go Fishing" and "Throw them back"?

Or "Catch" and "Release"?

Would it be possible to make an option on the overall statistics to set the max # of days shown? I have 8 months of data and it has shrunk the graph down to where it is impossible to see anythong other than a broad generalization. Maybe leave that one there and add a 'past 100 days' graph so it is easier to see?

Feature request: Ability to optionally tag an assignment with a machine name. Perhaps allow for sorting and/or stats based on machine names.

Use case: I have two main machines doing P-1 work. The larger of the two, I load up with more assignments and do it less often. My laptop, I load up usually with only one or two assignments at a time and I add assignments as needed. The machines are different speeds. It would be nice if there were some way to differentiate between the two in the stats, or at least on my assignments page. There have been times in the past where because the larger of the two machines had such a deep stack of assignments, I had trouble getting new single assignments for the laptop.

This is not a fully baked feature request I guess, but I wanted to write it down somewhere before I forgot about it.

--

Side question: Is there a way to request a small LL with a given TF level? Last night there was one LL in the 45M range that was TF'd in excess of 73 bits. I kinda want to grab it, but I kept getting offered one that was "only" TF'd to 72.

chalsall: On our 'Factors found by' page, can you add a sortable date column?

Easy. Done.

Yeah. Bdot asked for something similar a while ago. It's on my todo list.

While it wouldn't be difficult to do, there isn't currently any way to do that, other than ask for a bunch, and throw back what you don't like. But PLEASE don't do that -- the way LL and DC assignments are handled (AnonSpidy trick), any assignments which are unreserved have to go through a process of being passed back to PrimeNet and then recaptured.

Is this something people actually want? As it is the system gives the lowest available candidate, which in my mind makes the most sense as the lower the candidate, the faster it is to process. Being TFed to a slightly higher level only increases its likelihood of being Prime by a tiny (tiny!!!) amount.

Yeah, I have to climb into that section of code, and handle those who have been with the project since the beginning. Been thinking about how best to handle this.

It's high on my list....

Hmm, even if we never actually claim the assignment with mprime (completing the transfer)? I would've thought that assignment would stay with you. (No worries, it's not like I put a lot of effort into trying to get the test, I think I got 2-3 assignments and threw them back without ever 'claiming' them. And I won't do it again.) ...Oh. It just clicked as to why it matters. You need a new AID so that I/others don't know the old one. Makes sense now. Okay. Won't do that again.

Apparently.

But not something I feel strongly about.

Fair enough. It was more a "hey it's there, why not take the 'nicest' one available?"

Thank you (and to whomever moved my request to the appropriate thread)
