2 Notes:
First, it's Euler's birthday. Google has a nice doodle.
Second, I took a chunk (7 days) of dc work to test a bit about what I had said wrt the dc tf work being done by June 1. It will be done sooner than that, and it was interesting in this exodus of infinite work that we do to come across some repercussions of the finite dctf task. For example, most of the top 10 DC TF chart is locked in. I'm going to try to get on that chart before the concept ends, but we're just about there. I know BCP19, Carsten, and Aspen are locked in, and 4 and 5 probably are too.

Partially fixed?
For the last month I was not getting credit for work I unassigned.
However, today PrimeNet decided to unilaterally unassign some only to immediately reassign others. But GPU72 gave me credit for them.

One of my machines turned in a result for TF (332307253). GPUto72, gave the credit on the assignment date. Is this right?

The adjusted graphs give credit for completion during some point between the assignment date and the completion date, stacking from oldest to newest in an attempt to average the ammount of work done over that period. there's a link at the bottom of the page to 'exact' graphs that give the completion dates as the actual completion dates.

Cheese on bread!!!

Could you please PM me some examples?

There's a bug somewhere. Probably mine.

Having specific examples will help me find it quickly.

Thanks.

Some of the worker's graphs are really compacted, like this one, there is a lot of space on the top... Some seem to be fine though.

On the Nvidia page, nvidia says:
Are you in college or high school? Learn about how these USC students found a way to study NVIDIA in their accounting class. Tell us about how you're using NVIDIA's products to get your schoolwork done. http://ow.ly/kcFee
How NVIDIA Helped Liven Up One USC Accounting Class
No one understands business better than an accountant. But who knew an accounting class could produce a video

There are various comments after that ('I use my video card to get away from homework not do more!') but then there is one:

Danny Chia I'm not in school anymore, but I use my GTX 555 to trial factor Mersenne numbers as part of the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search. This helps eliminate candidates for Lucas-Lehmer tests, which can take several hundred hours on a normal CPU. See: http://www.mersenneforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=92
