Lost Boinc Credits
I just noticed something strange...I was checking out the WCG website, a noticed that I had 301,114 credits, but when I looked at Boinc I only have 43,016 credits.

Something has gone wrong somewhere...I just need to know where & how to fix it.

Re: Lost Boinc Credits
multiply the small number with 7 and call the big number points, because that's what WCG does with BOINC credits.

If you divide your WCG points by 7 you will get real close to your BOINC credits. The WCG points are a remnant of the old United Devices(UD) client days. The times the two sites update and rounding makes it impossible to get the exact amount.

Sgt.Joe probably meant to divide WCG points by 7... smile
