Asteroids may not be good for sprints but sprints are good for Asteroids as we eating a whole batch of WUs within one weekend )

We're just crunching a current batch of Asteroids in 2 days instead of 3. The project don't have work enough for our super powers )

The issues of the particular sprint could still be considered as a track layout that everyone has to deal with
I'm not happy either, but it's way better than nothing. And I mean constantly decreasing number of active projects.

It's always nice to hear back from projects that FB members crunching is appreciated ! Hi Tim, thanks for reposting this. Really nice. It was much fun as always and more than 450 pieces of this fun are still validating :D Last race forced me to check some old GPUs out of the shelf and those working...

I hope this isn't somebody maliciously downloading all the tasks as I have seen happen before during sprints - computer full of tasks but tasks completed and no credit ever recorded on that computer.

Please, share your issue within a project message board. There should be something common in it. My 20+ machin...

It's totally okay, Tim
Let's say, the race was postponed due to weather conditions. It happens sometimes at Japanese GP

It is 07:03 UTC but no Sprint-Projekt shown :shock: Possible track issue. Race start has been delayed but unfortunately no message from the race direction ) Tyres and engines are cooling down but we cannot do anything but waiting... We need Tim to save the day once again. p.s. some script failed to...
