THOR Challenge Attracts a Record Number of Teams in 2019


The THOR Challenge, one of World Community Grid's largest team competitions, is back for another record-breaking season. Learn more in this article.



Every September, the CRUNCHERS SANS FRONTIERES team issues the THOR Challenge, which begins this year on September 9 and runs for four weeks. You can learn more about how the THOR Challenge is structured in this post by Thomas H.V. Dupont, Captain of the CRUNCHERS SANS FRONTIERES team.

At the time of publication, this year’s Challenge has attracted 70 teams—a new record. And since this year’s Challenge is actually two competitions in one, there will be two winning teams with the THOR Challenge Pure (a fifth week of challenge).

If you are a team captain, register your team today. And if you're a team member, tell your captain that you'd like the team to be part of a challenge that aims to donate a record amount of computing time to six worthy projects.

Thanks for supporting the THOR Challenge and World Community Grid!
