We're still #1 on FormulaBOINC in 2017 after achieving 1st place in 2016, we have increased our lead by 203 points thus far this year with little under half a year to go now.
We have experienced some fierce competition on several projects this year, namely the following challenges where we did not come first:

Further Gridcoin issued boincstats challenges?
I need some input on the following regarding future boincstats challenges:
- Should we change the challenge title from 'Compete against Gridcoin - ProjectName'? At least one user (from another team) has been triggered by this on the enigma@home project forums.
- What projects should we issue future challenges on?
- 3 day challenges vs 7 day? Same user complained about the 3 day length (lol).
I would say we're now the defending champions, and putting on the competitions. If it's just one guy taking offense I would say we could safely ignore it. He can crunch harder if he wants to compete. Just my opinion.
We proposed to change the challenge name to "Compete with Gridcoin - ProjectName" so as to be less aggressive to sensitive users (lol).
But yeah, considering the sheer scale of the BOINC community there's always going to be a few users pissed off at anything competitors do.
And there's always that one guy, isn't there?
Yeah, given the sheer scale of the BOINC community you're no doubt going to have a few haters :P
good job, keep it up
Thanks, we will! :)
