Re: System Upgrade: Saturday, January 17, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC

In case you missed the Notice:

13 Jan 2015

Summary
Network equipment upgrades will be performed on Saturday, January 17th.

World Community Grid will be performing a network equipment upgrade starting Saturday, January 17, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC. The window for this maintenance activity is estimated to be 8 hours, although we anticipate the actual outage time will be less.

During this network equipment upgrade, the website may be completely unavailable at times. In addition, volunteer devices may not be able to fetch new research tasks or return completed work for a period of time.

No action is required by the members as the BOINC/World Community Grid software application will automatically reconnect to our servers once the upgrade is over.

Thanks Keith for all these news !
Really appreciated biggrin

Thanks for your support, I did receive an e-mail from your team about the problems. I have now retired the usernames Douglasalt1 & 2.

Not clear to me why you'd need to retire your original handle douglasalt1 (small d). WCG techs need to fix your account access, as simple as that. Then, renaming your old account to a different name in ~~My Contributions~~ Settings > My Profile is quite easy.

For the original account the last result returned was recorded 22 hours ago

Multiple accounts can not be merged, so you might want to think able maintaining the old account and keep contributing on that one.
