My recent credit is 17 on my computer page, but on my teams page, and my account only says 2. I only have 2 computers. Any ideas? ID: 113298 ·  |

You appear to be the VERY common victim of seeing computers not totally in sync. The databases are only updated once in a while to reduce the workload, they will probably NEVER be identical.

My recent credit is 17 on my computer page, but on my teams page, and my account only says 2. I only have 2 computers. Any ideas? Ah! The RAC Question! :) Well, it has been a week now, so I guess it is time for the RAC question again. :) Sorry Steve, I have this thing about cycles ... Anyway, RAC is not a "typical" average because it has a strong element of time embedded in the calculation. So, your RAC, your Team's RAC and your Computer's RAC are calculated based on when the last result's credit was added. So, the numbers will not reconcile easily. There is a long discussion of this in the FAQ and in the definitions of the terms. ID: 113479 · |
