Sometimes I think it would be nice if the GIMPS website had a feature that allowed users to message one another as not everyone reads the forum.

The bad residue was produced by prime95 29.5 which is known to have "windows" of vulnerability where a single bit flip can corrupt a result.

I noticed that a couple of people threw some TF and P-1 at those numbers this month to try to kill them.

All exponents below 50 046 947 have been tested and verified.
All exponents below 88 243 171 have been tested at least once.

Countdown to first time checking all exponents below 89 million: 11
Countdown to first time checking all exponents below 90 million: 182

Countdown to verifying all tests below 50 million:
Countdown to verifying all tests below 51 million: 4 903 (4 093 available

So, we have passed 50,000,000.

89,000,000 should pass in March. 90 by the end of April.

Now we need to fuse the first two rows into one.
Only 115,789 till all tests below 59,400,000 are verified

It looks like a poacher may have taken out one of the last holdouts.

And at least one newly assigned that was hundreds of thousands above 89M too.

Less than 100,000 exponents (out of 5,761,455) left below 100M with NO-LL and no factors (status unknown): GIMPSstats.html

Just to note it here for all the milestone watchers:

George has turned off expiration for all Cat 0, Cat 1, and Cat 2 assignments. This is due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the fact that many machines are not accessible or have been turned off in closed facilities. Several of these machines are known good producers and have been turning in Cat 0 and Cat 1 assignments routinely. Forum moderates have confirmed several cases of this through PM's with users.

DON'T POACH!!
Milestones will fall soon enough. There are a lot of cycles out there that have been invested that will payoff as people return to work and school, etc. Let's not waste them by poaching. Cat 3 and Cat 4 assignments should not be an issue, as they have months available to them.

Three left as of now to get to the 91M firsttest minor milestone. Aurashift has two that have not checked in for days or weeks. Not a poaching invitation, just an observation. No idea if aurashift has access to those systems now to nudge them to finish.
