 As I check in and see my stats rising I ask myself if I should join a team. Does anyone know the percentage of people running Rosetta that is on a team/not on a team? I am NOT looking for input about any particular team, as I can find that information on my own. I am just wondering how poplular it is to be on a team, and I would like feedback about any problems people have had (In general, again, not asking about any one team). Thanks for any input....    |

 Hi John, if you look here, you will see that only 18 percent of Rosetta users are in teams.  |

 Thank You.  I had never noticed this stat. Wow.. Such low team numbers. I guess everyone is looking out for #1. (joke)    |

 A more interesting stat is what % of the total points is not under a team.  |

 As I check in and see my stats rising I ask myself if I should join a team. I just started this month (using two computers), and joined a team (Sci-Fi) after a couple weeks for no particular reason. I can't see that it makes a iota of difference.  |

  After being on several different teams on several different DC projects, I ran into a case where I found the team leader's actions reprehensible - and joined another team.   Another possible problem is that you get such a feeling of camraderie with the rest of the team members that you start taking their advice on how to boost your production (overclock, run 24/7, get another system, etc). *grin*  |

 I'm on a team. I do it for the fun and comraderie. I belong to The Final Front Ear. We have a lot of fun... message boards, Skype chats and an upcoming get together. I think it's worth joining a team. Kathryn :o) The BOINC FAQ Service The Unofficial BOINC Wiki The Trac System More BOINC information than you can shake a stick of RAM at.  |

 That 18% are producing 48.1% of the results. I was going to say something similar to Kath, "I do it for the fun and comraderie" and that I believe we encourage each other to keep going. I think the stats say that too. Click here to join the #1 Aussie Alliance on Rosetta  |

 I created a team for my new school, though I haven't advertised it yet, so for now the "team" is my laptop and my fiancee's desktop running 24/7 LOL Should break into the top 1000 teams sometime tonight though - not bad for roughly 3 weeks :) I'm hoping to get a lot of support from my school once I advertise - not just for stats, but mainly because this is a great cause.  |

 Umm.. Take me out of the teamless stats. LOL.. I am a Sci-Fi Nut.... Wow - congrats on finding a team John! That now makes me a minority group of just 11%. Can I get any Government grants for this? (Going slightly off-topic to say.....)    |
