Howdy,

I know that credit is a key component to monitoring systems. We are monitoring it. The system should adjust automatically as more of the larger results start to come back. Credit gets compared against the PFC value that is calculated and determines if a value too high is awarded. I have been seeing the pfc value increase over the weekend which will help decrease the number of members getting low credit.

Thanks,

You do have a point Bugg, it is not just about getting points.

In my case I would say it turned into a "hobby" over time. However, I would also state that this is not a thing of our own making. It is something like a mutual agreement between "us" and "them". I am sure the badges were put in place to get us fired up about these projects and donate computer time. So, at the end of the day it is a win-win for everyone.

I am happy to have been here almost ten years now, but I really want the points to get the twenty-year badge for OET before it closes out! :)

(And TPCBF, I feel your pain! Those stuck WUs are a serious pain in my back end when I have not checked a computer in a while and I see them there. I only have three computers at the house, but two are running without monitors. I only "remote" into them when I think there is a problem. My first indication is always that my points are dropping through the floor.)

Even with an only 2 day cache, at least two hosts will not be able to return all the allocated WUs timely.
Moving from about 1 hour average runtime to about 7 hours runtime created a huge discrepancy regarding the requested work amount.
WCG will have a lot of WUs to resend.
Happy crunching,
Yves

PS: On my side, with 6 hosts, I currently notice a 10-15% 25-30% point decreasing. It was not as worst as reported by other members. It became worst during the last 3 days (edited 2018-04-07).

I would suggest, if possible, to extend the deadline for the WUs distributed between March 28th and 30th: about 3 days would be probably sufficient for avoiding a redistribution which will delay again the result delivery.
Additionally, it will avoid to cause that these WUs will be computed twice: once with a "too late" return and a second time by the new wingman.
Cheers,
Yves
