I use two hosts. Each of them has been granted credit. But the sum of their granted credit is less than the TOTAL credit for my account. My total credit is always 90.71 credits greater than the sum of those two hosts. (I have never had any other hosts on this project; I don't work any other BOINC projects; I didn't work on the alpha or beta.) Any ideas what causes this?

If the "Pending credits" or "Results" buttons worked, I could verify the individual hosts totals. But I would expect the overall total to be merely a summation of the separate hosts. For some reason, it is not.

At one point, I used the "recalculate credit" button (no longer available at all) for each host. Could that have screwed up the total somehow?

You took last night's server problems in the calculation? Why don't you wait for the server crash to bleed off before before you go into a panic? :)

We're not here for credits, but for the science, aren't we? Aren't you?

Not applicable. It's been like this for about three weeks.

And there's no "panic" involved. I'm just wondering about it.
