Sprint project Milkyway

So milkyway is the current sprint project. I decided to add 50 single core computers hired from The Science Cloud - TSC - to it. They have been attached over 30 minutes but still have no milkyway tasks.
Why?
Is this a project or a TSC problem?

I don't know. It's not anything BG can do since we have no control over TSC or Milkyway. So you'll need to ask TSC or Milkyway what the problem may be.

That's OK I shut them all down "immediately' as Rytis replied that Milkyway is not sending any tasks to them at TSC.
It seems Milkyway is a project to avoid for the time being.

I think the issue is due to using the 1-core droplets. Milkyway tasks are multi-threaded tasks so I'm suspecting it wont send work to a single core host. I tested with the 1-core droplet and nothing. I tested with a 12-core instance on TSC and got work.
