The THOR Challenge Pure.



At the end of the third week of the THOR Challenge, 15 teams will be selected to participate in a fifth week of challenge called THOR Challenge Pure.

Three conditions must be fulfilled in order to be eligible for the THOR Challenge Pure:
1- Not to be a team affiliated with a company, association, foundation, government agency, administration, university, college or school.
2- Not to be a team rewarding the distributed computing of its volunteers financially.
3- Have at least participated in the first week of the THOR Challenge (September 09 to September 15).

Among the eligible teams, the 15 teams that have accumulated the most Total Run Time during the first 3 weeks of challenge will be selected for the 5th week, the THOR Challenge Pure.

- This fifth week will take place from Monday, November 04, 2019 to Sunday, November 10, 2019.
Invitations will be sent to the Captains of the 15 best teams on Monday, October 14, 2019.
The team that wins the THOR Challenge Pure will be the one that have accumulated the most WCG Points in this fifth week.

The teams will be informed of their eligibility to the THOR Challenge Pure at the time of their registration to the THOR Challenge (in this thread and once their registration is official).

You will understand that we will have two winners this year.
The team that won the THOR Challenge (first four weeks) and the team that won the THOR Challenge Pure (fifth week).

Feel free to subscribe to this thread where the organizational details, the monitoring and the results of this FOURTH EDITION (2019) of the THOR Challenge will be published.

Will you have the courage to face this competition?

All the teams around the world are welcome!

Absolutely not, Aurum420.
Nobody is persona non grata.
There are two challenges now to allow all the WCG teams, regardless of their sensibilities, to find their rightful place in this challenge.
And I hope that the WCG crypto teams will participate in the THOR Challenge again this year.

Hey Thomas, If I start with a team that doesn't qualify in the current round, I can switch to one of the teams that continues to the next round?

No problem, thepeacemaker7.

16 teams registered on the THOR Challenge 2019 Y4-W1!
