http://www.boincstats.com/stats/boinc_user_graph.php?pr=bo&id=231fc2dec94497f376810c05fe33c352
suggests Total Credit for "Ironheart" as 1,221.55 ...
and has a Link to users host stats
http://www.boincstats.com/stats/boinc_host_stats.php?pr=bo&st=0&userid=231fc2dec94497f376810c05fe33c352
where two hosts (actually the same machine that SZtaki won't merge forward) show total credits of 1,027 and 214 ... which is a significant rounding error or else that darned fly changed "Tuttle" to "Buttle" again ... and now somebody is going to be mischarged by Central Services ... (drifting away to the tune of 'Brazil') ...
This is only a new bug if the previous similar report was addressed as the difference in totals does not correspond to any recent credit numbers that I am aware of (in which case it would be a bug in my own mind, which I'm willing to admit could be ... the result of saying 'Ni' too much)

Well, last I checked,
1,027 + 214 = 1,241
so , if
1,027 + 214 = 1221.55
is true,
then we either have a new number system or a new mathematics
(even rounding errors distributed over the 12 projects for which I've been lucky enough to participate in should result in an error of less than 12 credits not nearly 20).

Hence, the thread title, a sort of joke regarding what appears to be a programming error, but with a possible (however improbable) alternate explanation for the strange results.

In short, I'm attempting to be lighthearted about it rather than just bitch and moan.
