Looks like some pretty solid teams signing up. This should be a good race!

Hi OCP-Team, hi all other crunchers
@ 1st, thanks for this challenge
and now my question
Is this event an only 'TrackJack' challenge? Is crunching the other sub-projects o.k.?
Greets and happy crunching, nikonst, ngb:setiteam

Crunch what you like. There is no way for us to really determine otherwise. Have fun and crunch [H]ard!

Our firewall is blocking access to constellation project. Network admin sent me this reference http://software.sonicwall.com/applications/gav/index.asp?ev=v&v_id=25858 Anyone have a reference to show it's not a trojan?

My team -AMD Users- scores far higher than it's two participants here. My own score of today is only partly reflected in this challenge's score, can't be a coincidence...

I do have other systems at home not blocked by a firewall. Most of my WUs are waiting in the validation queue.

I don't know about your team, but my team seems to be getting work just fine. However, most of my work units are pending validation.

There's still a gap between the points of AMD users as a team and the sum of the scores of its two participants. Any other team experiencing the same?

Could you explain this points disparity or gap issue a little clearer? Looking at your team on their project there are more than 2 members but look like maybe only 3 active... How far off are your points at each time documented?

Only Chris and myself are active last 7 days. Our combined points (Chris 129, me 4,335) are about 1,400 credits off from the AMD total of 5,718.

Are those points validated? And if so, were they validated after the update?

I can only ask about your times because you have for some reason hidden your hosts at the project.

each WU has to be run by 3 different computers to be validated so it can take a while that is a drawbacks of Constellation in a challenge type atmosphere.For instance I have completed around 1500 WU's since the start of the challenge but only 129 have been validated.

The points i gava for me and Chris are those from the challenge, the points for AMD Users as well. Our points do not add up to the figure for our team.

It should just be the points that were given during the challenge. If you had points before, those wont show up. And it should be for all members of your team that return work AND are awarded points during the time frame of the challenge.

They are calculated the same as any other WU, Once they are validated they are added on the next update, But I do not know how often Constellation updates it's stats to Boinc, I think they update about every 8 hrs.

So how to explain the 1,400 points gap?

Can the BOINCSTats crash have anything to do with the screwed-up personal stats for this challenge?

Anything is possible. If you unhide your systems, others could try and validate your claims. I have no idea what points you have earned and when. That is the cost of hiding your machines.

I see you have validated ~28 work units at this point in time. I did not calculate the exact points since I'm mobile, but that would be an estimated 3500 points or maybe even less. I assumed 125 points each even though most probably are around 121. Chris has not returned any since the 21st and none has validated since then either.
