Day 5: Gridcoin and the BOINC Pentathlon challenge (May 5-19)

Welcome to Day 5 of the Pentathlon report!

9h after Einstein@Home was enabled as 3rd counting BOINC project in the competition, 

here are the worldwide RAC for the top16 teams:

As you can see there is not much change on the top, while teams in positions 10-16 are battling it out :-)

Further comments are requested by you for:

How should we divide the Pentathlon rain amount for each BOINC project? 

• should it be equally 20% for the 5 projects, or based on duration (the longer a project runs on members' devices the more energy used), please share your views here.

We have now over 10k GRC as funding for the Pentathlon (and for the next chess tournament #3 and #4: >650 GRC)

• Thanks again to all sponsors so far: Andrew Wood, customminer, Gunde, iFoggz, Scalextrix, Vortac and anonymous persons

Who gets listed in the Cosmology@Home research paper?

• 118 BOINC teams and 893 users are doing the Planck jobs at Cosmology@home so far, see here.
