Between what is PV and in progress, I have more than enough to hit sapphire though it may take a couple days for the last 50 days to register.

Yes, some 14xxx-series that seems to have been jumped-over after the wu-errors was fixed is also being distributed. There was a jump to 150xx, and this coupled with 14349 and upwards erroring-out gives a gap of roughly 750 series under 14xxx.

But, these 14xxx-series of work also being distributed alongside the 15xxx-series of work means total work-distribution can be higher than 322 series/day. If it is higher is unclear, since even wu-distribution is now up to 157xx as of 3 hours ago, it's unknown if all previous 15xxx-series has been fully distributed, or maybe 25% of each has been distributed leaving much more work to be distributed or not.

So, does this mean there is let's say 140 fully distributed 15xxx-series per day + 40 fully distributed 14xxx-series per day + 20 series due to losing reliability & errors per day meaning distribution still is at 200 series/day?

Or, does it mean there's 300+ fully distributed 15xxx-series per day + 90 fully distributed 14xxx-series per day + 10 series due to validation & errors per day giving current speed of 400 series/day?

If 200 series/day is the correct, there's roughly 25 days left of work. If it's 400 series/day on the other hand, including the 14xxx-series being distributed, there's only 10.6 days left of work.

Or, is it 324 series/day from 15xxx + 150 series/day from 14xxx, meaning 8.5 days of work left to distribute? If only looking on 15xxx-series of work, at 324 series/day it's 11.0 days left to do, meaning some 14xxx-series also going-out alongside means can run-out of new work even faster than estimated.

In all cases it's a guess-work how much work is really left to do, since don't know if the 15xxx-series is fully distributed or not.

I will need 16 more days to reach sapphire, but two or more of those are already in my In Progress queue and another three are in PV. That means i ONLY need eleven more days of new Wus.

It's scraping the barrel pretty much a week to 10 ten days after the last *new* work has been send out. After that, chances are near zero, so no false hopes. Once batch 19131 has left, it's about 3 weeks to drag in the last tasks. The techs have in past increased replication at some point to push the last stragglers and then they leave the receiver open a little longer for the redundant tasks coming from clients that were e.g. off for longer, crunched the task to completion and returned without talking to the server in the interim. These of course run the risk of getting the "too late", or even "unknown to the system". Now being almost August 31 and 15-18 days new work left, it will be end of September, early October to close. And then of course there's housekeeping to see that all work was received, no batches escaped the indexer. But I would absolutely not count on that as it buying time.

Another update, as normal UTC+2:
30.08.2012 23:01:26 | World Community Grid | Finished download of cfsw_15857_15857612_D15857612.sql

This equals 269 series since yesterday, and if assumes similar speed it means 12.2 days left to distribute.

There's also been some more work from 14xxx sent-out and also work from example 1503x has now been issued since yesterday. If this means all work in the 14xxx-series has now been issued or not is still unclear, but taking an overview of my work the only series-of-10 amoung 14xxx I've not got any work from is these 4:

1452x, 1480x, 1484x and 1485x

This means a total of 40 series, but since I've got multi-hour gaps between work-requests this isn't a very accurate measure. And of course, even if I do have example one task from a 1463x-serie, there can still be upto 9 series still to be distributed...
