I've asked before if people want to take the 2,273 DC candidates in 62M from 73 to 74, but I didn't really get an answer.

Ye like my aunt, she always baked delicious cookies, but when we were visiting she was asking if we want any. And we being polite, were looking to our mother and were always saying no. Then auntie was upset we didn't like her cookies. And my mother telling her, "don't ask, just put them on the table, the little rascals will take them"... Guess who was right, and how many cookies were left on the table wen we went home...

I'll help do them, I was only trying to get LLTF a nice lead in all categories first. If we are going to haggle over whether DCTF is done till they are complete though...

Default All DCTF below 60M has been completed!!!

Congratulations everyone!

The last of all DC candidates below 60M have now been appropriate Trial Factored! For a side project of a side project which was expected to take ten years or so, this has been finished in a remarkable quick amount of time, particularly considering the factoring depth has increased twice since we began.

As requested, I am currently bringing in the 2,279 candidates at 73 bits in the 62M range for those interested in taking them up to 74.

I would ask, however, that people not move too much firepower from LLTF to do this work. We are still quite tight in the LL Cat 4 range, and feeding the LL P-1'ers. It is also going to be something like eight years before candidates in the 62M range will be assigned for DC'ing (heck, we just finished the LL'ing there).

Anyway, as always, thanks for all the cycles everyone!!!

So, some were interested in additional DCTF...

Just in case there are any others who really just _need_ to do additional DCTF (for whatever reason; no judgement... your kit), I've brought in an additional 1,000 candidates in 61M. I'll keep filling this range as these are consumed.

Also, a note to those using MISFIT... A few are still using the DCTF request parameter. Thus, you'll be given 61M to 74 work. If you don't want to do this, please change your settings to LLTF (where "to 72 bits" is still on sale! ).

And all below 105M if you are using a GTX 580 :)

So, I get back from the "Hash" and discover the 1,000 DCTF candidates I'd tasked "Spidy" with fetching in 61M are already gone...

Sigh...

OK, I'm now going to bring in a few more thousand candidates just to satiate the appetite. Hopefully they don't all get assigned overnight....

Well see now you've caused me trouble, I need to pull together at least 10k GhzDay back from my DCLL to DCTFP2 to preserve the lead. The whole plan was to hold the #1 GPU72 spot for DCTF when it died :)

Ah... Man... As Aaron says, this is why we can't have nice stuff...

You guys do whatever you want to keep your respective rankings. And the additional DCTF /does/ make sense (for some cards) at the moment.

The DCTF work done in the near future will be valuable. In about eight years....

I'll stick to LLTF. I really don't care about the rankings. :)
