Saving a perfectly good WU from the oblivion of being labeled a "too many errors may have a bug" WU, this may have been one of them:

I was just wondering how many perfectly good WUs have the unfortunate fate of being labeled that, just because they are sent to bad hosts?


And more importantly, how does that effect the project?


Every so often, I do end up successfully completing one of these WUs.

Here is another example:

I wonder if I'll ever get answers on the questions in the previous post?
