It's quite possible that all of the "se" betas won't credit. I had a couple that did manage to finish and go to PV status, but the wingmen hadn't returned theirs yet. Which also means they were likely server aborted and thus even the PV will never reach quarum.

Suppose it's possible that there were a couple quick finishers that may have had a wingman finish quickly too that might validate.

Will all be a moot issue anyways if they can do a quick fix and send out new WU's. When that happens, the results are purged so as not to have duplicates in the system.

Maybe early to ask, but I'm curious what will happens with this PV Beta below (mine in bold, other from wingman) and with two more that I guess that will be in the same situation soon:

Sek,

There are always deadlines :)

GIBA,

I am asking to see what we can do about credits on these work units...

Ok,

Matthias, I got the files finally from support@worldcommunitygrid.org I checked them out and our assumption was correct on what was causing the over 100% issue.

For these work units, there are 200,000 times it goes through the loop. on check point it is supposed to start at the last checkpoint position. In the work units that were cancelled it was not. For example if you did 190,000 loops, then checkpointed and restarted, your computer would then complete 390,000 loops over the course of that work unit. That is assuming you only restart once, if your computer restarts the work unit multiple times, the work unit would basically go on forever.

The problem was within the work units and have been corrected. I have asked for the new work units to be run on the grid. These will show up as erle not erlc.

Thank you again for your patience and help!

New work is being indexed and loaded at this time. Updated se work units should start flowing soon.

Thanks,
