? Question about credit earned ?

Hi all: why is it that I am earning less points than my wingman, even though my task took longer?

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all !!!

Re: ? Question about credit earned ?

Hello Mark Reiss,
I suspect that you are misreading the claimed/granted columns on the Results Status page. Although you are probably claiming something different than your wingman is, you both should be granted the same number of points.

If I am wrong then please post the details.

You are NOT earning less points, you BOTH got 103.3 so you both have the SAME!

Re: ? Question about credit earned ?

You will be credited the full 11.58 hrs to your total hours.

Points are credited for the amount of work done (sort of) - not how long your machine took to do that amount of work.

So both crunchers completed the same amount of work on that task and therefore receive equal points - but unique hours.
