Re: A curious claim

Since we have quorum of three, that system well balances anyone who tweaks or amplifies claims like with Tuxsoft.......135, 60, 55 is still 60 and not 135!

If 'invalid' is treated equal to 'error', then fine, but i dont agree with it v.v. UD method....no idea how many actually occur, they were handed in with a completed code meeting base set of parameters, thus how inequitable would it be to award the middleman points?

Re: A curious claim

But 135, 135, 55 is 135 and you might be amazed how often that happens, or perhaps not amazed.

Since BOINC is open source and easily reverse engineered, hacked, recompiled, etc., it's conceivable for someone to return crap that resembles a result and get points for no crunching at all. I think the more stringent test is good.
