Weird scenes, but looking in all my profiles it's still at the number prescribed [and GFAM did get auto selected as what I've set in the options). Maybe its alphabet driven, and has not reached this far yet. (Am not getting CEP2 anyhow for unknown reason... not since 28 hours now, though the number is set to 8).

Thank you for reporting. This is a bug that was introduced as a result of some code that we were adding to allow us to start testing the ability to customize the timeout to range between 12 hours and 24 hours. Unfortunately there was a typo and it updated the wrong field to have a min setting of 12 hours.

Unfortunately, because this set a lot of people's settings to a much higher value than their machines can handle, we have had to clear the setting. We have no way of knowing who 'intended' the setting versus those who were set incorrectly. Thus we will be resetting everyone's whose matches 12. We will post when we have reset them and fixed the website. The setting will be at the default setting.

Taking a look, the 2 profiles with a specific number of CEP2 wasn't changed, but the one sitting at default was changed to 12.


There's 6466 reasons for this being a bad idea...


I seriously doubt users choosing the option "Detach World Community Grid" due to CEP2 not playing nice is a good choise...

There was a real giraffe tongue in cheek here... hard to miss ;D

knreed, many will look forward to that > 12, up to 24 hours option. This will make the value of contribution for slower machines, those who still want to run CEP2 notwithstanding, surely more significant, if not, lesser need for the scientists to rerun the ''interesting'' results that were cut short at an early job step.
