I seem to be getting whacky points since the sever down time. It's not making any sense to me and not in alignment with the 36/48 hr return guidelines. Anybody else having this issue...or am I just missing something....? My Results I'm getting 100% points for WUs just over 13 hrs....160% for WUs ~31 hrs and everything in between.... Not making much sense here.... |

There are three sizes of task and each gets its own award in Cobblestones. Added to that is a bonus that is supposed to reward those that return tasks faster. I have asked that the project in the sticky threads post a table listing the "normal" and bonus awards so that we can all keep track as to what the reality should be and so that we can report possible errors. SO FAR, no response ... Adding to the confusion is the fact that there seems to be a bug in the bonus system ... I myself gave up trying to figure it all out because I am too close to the edge as it is ... YMMV ... |

my estimate of the issue with the bonus calc is here ... gdf says they are looking into it. Thanx, Steve.... There are three sizes of task and each gets its own award in Cobblestones. Hi Paul, I'm referring to the percent, not the absolute points granted. Under the new system we should be granted 160% for WUs returned in 36hrs or less, 120% for 48hrs or less and 100% for WUs returned by the deadline. My points are not coming in....in accordance with that. There is no rhyme or reason to it, but after reading SC's link it seems as though it has something to do with the time of the first person in the quorum reporting their WU....??? |

@Paul: The base award should still be the claimed credit. @naja: I took a quick look at some of your results and it looks like you'Re also seeing the issue posted / described by snow. MrS Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002 |
