Teams :
Want to combine my several Project Teams into one BOINC-wide Team
(Message 26073)
Posted 17 Jul 2009 by David Black Post: Of course, I also want to retain all of the credits that I have accumulated over the past few years and combine them into a single credit for the new team. I would also like to retain the statistics (amount of credits) for each of the individual projects and therefore be able to show what projects the team is involved with. I have not formed teams for all the projects that I am involved in. Some projects have no obvious place to form teams. Most of the teams that I have created have been named either "'Project': Great White North" or "Great White North: 'Project'" The reason for the Great White North in the team name is because I live in Canada (the 'Great White North' - lame Canadian joke) anad am a Canadian citizen. I had hoped to lure other Canadians to the teams with the 'Great White North' phrase, however that didn't work at all well. However, I now have a few new computers and am willing to try the Team-Building exercise once again. This time, I am very serious about attracting team members, I'm just not sure how to do that. Can anyone help on the combining teams issue and can anyone assist me on attracting teammates? I am considering what to do about the 'Great White North' team-name element, especially since I do not limit membership in the team(s) to Canadians nor to any particular type of individual or organization. The only criteria for team membership is that you should be interested in making some contribution to science, that you not have the resources of some huge university or company (small and medium sized universities, colleges, schools, companies, societies, clubs (social, dance, play-reading, acting, games - e.g. crosswords, cards, puzzles, video-gamers - cooking, movie-going, singing, bands, choirs, ... just about any type of group is most welcome. The more computers your group has - whether old, rather slow or new and very fast - hey! Please, join-up, once I get an all-in-one BOINC-wide team. I hope someone can help me with my quest. I did read a bit on building BOINC-wide teams, however, what I read didn't seem to address my problem, nor was it clear how to retain already accumulated credits or to maintain the amounts of credit earned to date in each of the various projects. Now, there is another bit of an issue - nothing insurmountable, just requiring a bit of grunt-work and some guessing. Over the years that I have been BOINCing, I have had a whole slew (a lot, that is) of computers, many of which no longer in existence. So, I will have to check around to see which projects still have records for me and any of the teams which I formed all those years ago. David Black david.black001@yahoo.ca |
