Title: What happened on 31 Aug - 1 Sep ?
Post by: Roger Rooney on September 04, 2010, 12:46:35 AM
On first of September when looking at 'allprojectstats.com' I found I'd lost 25% of my accumulated credits.  :furious:

I checked out BOINK@AUSTRALIA and found the same thing had happened there.   ???

Cannot seem to find out anything about it, so I posted a message on the allprojects forum.

Any ideas, anyone?

:panic:

If you crunch Climate Prediction, then thatis the reason.  Somehow their database has screwed up. They are trying to sort it out. we just have to be patient

TinMan is correct. I show a 100+k loss of credits there. I've had this happen before at other projects when the stat's reporting systems pick up data from a corrupted DB. It all gets sorted in a few days.

Thanks for that, Tinman.

I'll sit back and be patient - but I'll still crunch numbers.  :cool:

It wasn't just a old advertising slogan with no relevance, his name really is Milo.
