2019 Challenge Voting

SGS - 2 day - "Memory Lane" or "Founders" challenge commemorating those of us who started with TPS (or earlier...) as I see SGS as the direct descendant of the TPS search. 2 days for the Twin part.
I have no particular input beyond that.
Edit: Wow, I just noticed it has been 13 years now...

New PrimeGrid Policy - Monetization of BOINC credit
(Message 121981)

User ID #765 here, I agree with the decision. Money involvement only opens the door for unwanted manipulation and possible legal issues that I am sure nobody here wants. Been with PG since early on, and I don't think the risk to the integrity of the project is worth it. I'm sure integrity is currently high, but things can (and do) change.

Hey, just made a team for PrimeGrid. Prime Ordeal Soup. As described, I made the team for the purposes of competing in PrimeGrid challenges, and to find primes. I'd be grateful to anybody who would like to join. Thanks!

Completed tasks 157556
Credit 4,627,762.53
Primes found 20
Percentage of tests resulting with a prime 0.0127
Again, mine include the previous range as well.
I run it because my first "love" in prime searching was the Twin Prime Search (where I was given partial credit for the largest twin when n was 195000), and SGS was pretty much the evolution of that search.

Did the credit increase for Woodall in the last couple weeks? I see 18k vs 14k for what looks like the same CPU time involved.
