Dare I say it? \"Join ESEA (Earth Space Exploration Agency\"? Ups, now I did it. Oh well, go ahead and join us - try clicking on the sig, click Join, then add climateprediction to your project list, then click Join right by climateprediction at the project list - then you\'re with a great team ;)

Yup. And it\'s kinda predictable that this would slow things down with that project. I do hope it will get started sometime, though

What deadlines are given for v. 4.22? The v. 4.19 wu I\'m working on has a deadline far far less than a year - which means BOINC practically only wants to run that one to meet the deadline... Other projects get no CPU time unless I force a temporary suspend of CPDN

&gt; the problem seems to be that I am relying on the teamid in the result table,
&gt; but somewhere along the line BOINC hasn't been putting teams in there. since
&gt; that isn't reliable, I'm going to just go back to the "old system" where your
&gt; team in the user table determines how many credits the team gets (which means
&gt; that a person "takes" their credits with them if they join another team).
&gt; also don't forget that credit calcs are run twice a day so it may be up to 12
&gt; hours until you switch/join a team that you'll see the stats change.

So in other words it'll go back to being the sum of current members' credits. Well, it's better than what I'm experiencing at the moment which is no new credit for the team, but a decaying RAC (well, the RAC thing is to be expected as it was way too high for normal curcomstances ;))

Anyway, happy to know something is being done, and cudos for great and hard work

&gt; I think the problem now is that BOINC doesn't just sum up the user credits to
&gt; get the total team credits.

The non-boinc way was due to a fix of another problem (http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=2619), so I guess the non-boinc way (sum of members credits) will return if not currently used ;)

As far as I can tell, noone has left my team, resulting in natural decrease (due to the way cpdn works atm). Still, a big chunk of credits was cut from my team.

So far all credit gained by an individual has been added to any team they join. So if I add up all credit from all members, it should be the credit the team has - which right now would be more than double of what the team has today (yesterday it would have been just a little less, when using todays numbers of the members ;))

Well, anyway, has anyone else experinced a strange decrease in team credits?

&gt; My guess is that they are all related to database timouts, but some of the
&gt; links to that may be indirect. eg timeout problem caused WU misallocation. WU
&gt; misallocation caused need to rebuild server software. Rebuild of server
&gt; software caused ....

seems to be a fair asumption

&gt; There are other reports of problems with the email file - eg <a> href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=2667"&gt;this
&gt; thread</a>.

hmm. I wonder if the multiple problems (email functions, xml stats outage, xml host stats probs, misallocated wu) are related somehow...

Ok, now I understand a bit more ;) Thanks :)

Would be nice though if they could find some other fix for the extra-credit-problem - but I guess for now it's a matter of choosing between bad and worse :)

did no resetting - just aborted the one that wasn't listed on the host. I have two wu's on my host now, both listed on my host, so I keep them both

Post:
When someone joins a team all credit this person has accumulated is added to the team. If the person in the process leaves another team, all his credit will be subtracted from the team. Of course this is "bad" for the team that the person is leaving, but it can also be "bad" for the team the person joins, in more than one way. Naturally any team would welcome more credit, but then again, it feels a bit like stealing - AND more importantly, it can throw whatever stats they run out of whack for a while.

I run a team myself, and naturally I'd like more to join - but I don't want to steal credit from other teams - and whenever someone who has been crunching for a while joins my team, all their credit is added to my team, which throws my MFlop stats out of whack for a while - annoying actually.

So, I have a request: To implement the same policy projects like seti@home has, which is credit earned while being member of team A stays with team A when the member changes to team B - and credit earned while not being a member of a team is not added to team A when the member joins team A.

Good call with this thread :) I had one extra CPDN WU on one of my hosts and had actually planned to run it (I admit, I never thought to check the results list).

The WU in question is 2m8o_300143371_0 - NOT in my results list - 0 (zero) work done on it, and now aborted.

Host in question is 52531.

Hope that helps

&gt; Or, just keep them all on the air ... I really like the objective of LHC@Home,
&gt; though I still can't figure out their screen saver.

AFAIK they are still tweaking the screensaver, although it's low on their priority list (science app being on top of that, naturally). But what is it you can't figure out?
