[COVID-19] Folding@Crypto.Games ~ 0.4 BTC rewards, 0.04 BTC donated [Closed]

[shantee]

@shantee, users Daltonik, Durel and bobpaw should be in "Green" team, not rainbow; oldminer in "Red". The count on the commands is incorrect, as there are many inconsistencies.

Some of those errors might be due to me. I've updated the table in the first reply with a few fixes (and added a link to shantee's tracker, thanks for the effort, regardless of the inconsistencies).

A quick explanation of the formatting of the table:
Users that want to be rewarded with a different coin than BTC have that coin in parenthesis behind (effectively under) their name.
Users that use different names on CG and FAH have their CG name in the table and their folding name in parenthesis behind/under that.

I've also added those names that are reasonably similar (dal52/Daltonik & Durell253/Durel) to the table to make it easier for people other than me to track the teams.
Sorry for not doing that earlier.

@Luptin : Wow Thanks ! (for the link) I am honored   and glad that some stuff I made is somehow usefull. Also thank for the explanations I did understand the choice of coin but not the difference in name (FAH / CryptoGame) . Also I did not see there was a list for the "rainbow squad" but I guess I just found it.
I don't know whether it is complete though :  

• Joter (CG admin), Kewl (CG admin), Anthony (that's me), nutnut (Discord organizer), s0lidus (CG mod), adzino (CG mod), Sojourner, thiago, desertfox470.

@Xandry Here is how I proceded . basically I started with a bash script (cause I am lazy) to get the data given by Luptin (the 3 squads members list ) then apply some regex magic to turn it into JS arrays and voila..I thought that everyone not part of either the red/blue or the green squad must then be part of  the rainbow squad. Hopefully that should be easily fixable .


(in my "defense" there are also some inconsistencies in the lists provided ... For example xandry name should on the list should be "xandry_ALL_176ZXsA526eRZuxMMCC4wEpZdJjadjvbdR" since there is NO xandry donor using the name "xandry" look (https://stats.foldingathome.org/donor/xandry) , same for Octavio who should be "Octavio_FLDC_12kKceKMXQBsrHHD1uaSVaEN4dgKwJHYqB" ...Well i guess i'll find a way ^^)

Talking about inconsistencies...Some users don't even know their FAH donors name or at least they don't spell it properly (and yes sorry but the character case matters !)..well it's a mess , I did my best to corrected what I could but I am afraid I won't be able to do much more without proper infos.

DarkStar = darkstar
salvani = Salvani
ThatOneDude= Thatonedude
Horizon = HORIZON
Abobo = abobo
thenerd314 = thenerdyone314
Cyphix = CyphiX
MMaatA = MMaatA9
xkerri = xkerri2

also I have got lots of members name like Kei, UselessGuru , 8055Ai etc. which according to FAH are part of our team (crypto.games) but appear nowhere on any list (and I can't find any similarities with other nicknames visually) that's why by default they show up being on the rainbow team

Probably it is Crypto.Games discord server members where this competition is running also.

I've done my best to sync my list with the one Nu maintains on discord, so that shouldn't be the case.
Some users joined without signing up via either place, some joined and signed up in a way we couldn't assign them (eg HungryCrypto, as that Crypto.Games account does not exist).
The vast majority of users are assigned a team however and the few that are unassigned should not make a difference in the team placements.

Fixed some of those you pointed out.
You also should be able to convert every username to lower case from both the list I maintain and the folding stats, and then match them, as neither folding donor names nor Crypto.Games usernames are case sensitive.

When is the official end of the competition?

[Lutpin]

When is the official end of the competition?

We're currently looking at extending it for a few more days, possibly until the 14th of May.
The End of April date was a guesstimate based on the rewards allocated and FAH doing monthly stats.
While we have been running a bit below that, we are still overwhelmed with the amount of engagement.
Giving it a few more days allows those that are close to the max reward to catch up, and those that have less hardware available to them to collect some more rewards.
Also, we believe it is now as important as it was back when we started to promote Folding@Home, and we would like to continue doing that, especially since we still have some rewards left.
I hope nobody feels blindsided by that decision.

On the contrary! That's great news !  Personnally I started a bit too late   . Also I never really gave a shot at F@H before,  but now I find it really interesting and I believe it can be helpfull too (It's always much better than doing nothing). I 'll certainly keep on folding and explore a bit more even after this game is over. I believe I am not the only one in that case.

Ow nice , and you're right indeed! (forgot why I had this belief about the case)

***
I have improved a bit more my little interface. I have added the "blacks"  for people who don't figure in any group. I 'll  try to make the whole thing more "real time" . Currently info are updated each 90 minutes.  I am sure there still must be some bugs here and there . Do not hesitate to mention them if you finf something wrong.

I have a quick question about the rewards distribution. I know that the maximum is currently 0.01BTC/person; but does that also include the group rewards, or just the folding? And those group rewards are included in the 0.5BTC, or is it 0.5BTC for individual rewards+group rewards?

I know I am late for the question, after a whole month; but I hadn't really started thinking about the numbers until now, and those questions arose.

BTW, I love the formatting of the tables, hadn't seen it before. Just a suggestion; try using the "transparent" color in the first row so that the white doesn't burn trough people's eyes.

Code:

The current allocation is 0.35BTC for direct rewards, 0.1BTC for squad rewards and 0.05BTC for lottery ticket to all participating users.
The 0.01BTC per users only applies to the first category, the direct rewards.

Just a suggestion; try using the "transparent" color in the first row so that the white doesn't burn trough people's eyes.

That's better, thanks.

Just a quick update, we've set the 14th as fixed ending date for the event now.
With the small delay in stats provided via Folding@Home and giving some time to run all numbers, rewards should be sent out on the 15th or 16th.
I'll keep everyone posted about the progress. Don#t forget you can keep increasing your credits until that day (including the full day on the 14th).

[1414fff1414]

If possible i would like to change my payout method from ETH to BTC.

If not than we just keep ETH.

Thanks.

[Lutpin]

Sure, still possible, got you noted down as BTC.


We're currently running the numbers, and while final standings will have to be double checked for errors before we can publish the sheet, let me give a quick summary:
(the unfinished version of the rewards table can be found here if you want to check your placement and reward).

In total, we reached a grand score of nearly 500M credits (479,907,367), having over 100 users participate (106 to be exact),
who contributed computation power from 453 CPUs/GPUs and completed 17,663 WUs.

For the squads, first rank was a close race between Green and Red, with Green keeping the upper hand in the end. Red came in second and Blue ranks third.
As unranked squad, Rainbow got to 0.043BTC in rewards that will be donated, I'll keep you posted once the donations are made.

For single user spotlight, Joter has to be mentioned, who leads the ranking with nearly 65M credits (that's over 10% of the total).
Closely followed by xandry, who's second with almost 56M credits (as well over 10% of the total). Well done both of you.

Also, keep in mind that, while we do wind down our rewarding event at this point, you can still contribute to Folding@Home, either in our team, or in any other team.
Those of you that want to continue folding and get rewarded for it, it might be worth taking a look at Foldingcoin and Curecoin.
I encourage everyone to continue contributing.

Thanks.

and for whom did the computer not help?

[DogecoinMachine]

All participants will be awarded today with total of ~0.42 BTC!

Here are team stats: https://stats.foldingathome.org/team/247983 holding 537th place out of 253248. Awesome work guys!

[busminer]

Hurray!
thank you to the organizers 🙏
I congratulate all participants and thank you all   👏👏👏

[xandry]

You can add banano to this list also: https://bananominer.com/

By the way, it was great competition, thank you crypto.games! I hope that one day it will happen again.

[Lutpin]

And...that's a wrap.

All tips have been sent out by Nu (who organized the discord side of this competition).
The final sheet with rewards sent out by Nu is the same as I've posted earlier, this one.

I've sent some lottery tickets to tomorrows BTC lottery round to everyone.
We had allocated 0.05BTC for that (equals 500 tickets), they were spread as following:

5 tickets for every participant who either reached 100k credits or submitted 5 WUs (320 total)
10 tickets for every participant who contributed more than 11M credits (100 total)
20 tickets for ILoveLTC for their tracker (thank you very much for the effort)
20 tickets for xandry for being the first on the leaderboard with a huge lead.
20 tickets for CorneliusA for their engagement on discord.
20 tickets for Swizz420 (twiztid) for their engagement and for providing help to others on discord.

As the rainbow squad donations have to be made in fiat (yeah, there's charities that accept crypto, but we're trying to focus on charities that respond to the covid crisis in this instance),
they will take a little longer to be sent out. I'll keep you updated.
