I believe for me it’s time to move on ... thanks for the years of joined crunching and competition as [H]. It was a pleasure and we did some impact.
The changes in recent communication methods made me disconnected; not much to blame towards the team and primary driven by my stubborn brain not willing to adopt to Discord. My choice. I also didn’t appreciated the way the transition was executed. But fine, majority team members decision. On the other side we also see very few interaction from team members here in the forum; which still is our official home; at least I thought so.
The main reason for me is the way we try to influence the outcomes in the recent months. Increasingly visible in last year’s FB and now in the Pent. We are not working as [H] team anymore. Looks more like as a group of “mercenaries”. Might sounds harsh, but lack of better wording. And as a result gave up a great opportunity to gain spot #3 in the biggest BOINC event. And not even for the price to get the supported team to that spot. Wasted opportunity for [H]. I’m fine helping another team when our position is secured or would have no chance at all. [H]ell, we had #3 and gave it up for what ? Priority should be the own team. If it’s still a team.
I’m not sure what I will do with my accounts, I will continue crunching as lonely wolf or rōnin for a while on non-math projects, move partially back to F@H and might rejoin other team in the future. Or even keep them on [H].
I remain mainly interested in the science, But I stay away from challenges which are now more a political, and not recreational/sportive, event.
Wish you all the best and success in which ever direction this team will move. Some of our WU with quorum 2 might meet.
