Well, they're "up and running again" with 400k new work units. Unfortunately, there are ZERO work units available for users! Hello?? Is this thing on?

And the bug that had "only been around for about 13 hours" before they found it sometime yesterday? Could that be the reason there were ZERO work units for the ENTIRE FOUR DAYS before that announcement???

And, despite any announcement of a "version 4" client, it (sometimes) tells me I have to get Version 4. There is no "Version 4" on the download page! Yet, it only requires "Version 4" sometimes; other times it doesn't even mention it.

WTFO? You can almost hear the LooneyTunes theme!

I, too, would like to know the status of the allged 400k of new work units. I don't understand myself why the server keeps responding "no work" but on the front page they state they have all these new WUs to hand out.... I wonder sometimes if the left hand knows what the right hand is doing!

With so many people wanting work, I would suspect 400k WUs will dry up pretty quickly.

I have just got home and my pc managed to grab 2 work units both within the last hour. So keep trying. It has been a pretty bad few days as both seti and predictor have been having lots of problems so my computers been staved of work from both projects. But now things are slowly starting to roll again!!

Yay!! to the seti team!

Perhaps they've got the servers screwed up? Maybe SOME of the servers (assuming there are more than one) know about and can distribute the new work units, but others can't see them and so can't distribute them??

Time to get the servers working together!

(STILL no work units, despite Updating every 10-15 minutes.)

I just pulled down 10 units- smoth as silk. We are back in business!!
Thanks, SetiBOINC !!!

Hey! I just got 18 units on this machine! Somebody must have finally flipped the right switch or something! Yay!

(Now, I hope this isn't all for the NEXT 5 days. I'll finish them in less than 3 days, I think.)

Hmmm. It finished two of those in less than 3 minutes each. I hope they were just noisy or short ones rather than "bad" (as in corrupted) ones.
