They will most likely be lost, and NO I'm not using 4.13, but 4.45 Best regards / B52 ID: 138948 ·

You still have 6 days until those are lost. Since some of the UL's have been going through, don't sweat it. Jim Same here, have a couple of wu's stuck in upload status with the 25/7 as a deadline.

Hey I just checked my over due wu's and I got credit for them.I had some that were downloaded on the 30th July and I only sent them back like yesterday so they were like 4-5 days overdue but I got credit for them......Do not worry, it seems we will get credit for late wu's.... ......In Space No One Can Hear You Scream......

What's more worrying to me is the increase in backlog I have, on sunday I had 26 WU's waiting to be uploaded, by now this has increased to 52 or 53 WU's. Some WU's have been send succesfully over the past few days, but these had later deadlines. ID: 139068 ·

Whenever you have a wu that is close to the deadline, just start clicking the "Retry Now" button in BOINC under the Transfers tab. It will be sent if you keep trying. Of course, there is no reason to do that if you still have several days left. ID: 139069 ·

And hitting the retry now button adds to the congestion or server overload which exacerbates the problem. Jim I'm not letting mine get close to the deadline.
