this kinda sucks losing units.. why weren't we told that this may happen ?

Bionic site says
SETI@home classic workunits 5,756
and Seti@home classic says :6,822

losing that much puts a downer on particapating, and what i've read sofar noone has resolved this error.
(should have never switched), i moved back to the classic on 4 of 5 and have only one Bionic Running and
if this problem isn't solved ..DELETE !!!

This is not an error. A snapshot of SETI classic was done on 15 may. SETI BOINC reflects what you had on that date. When SETI Classic ends another snapshot may be done.

You weren't told this may happen because it wasn't intended to happen...

I missed nearly 4000 WU's in this way.
I don't care. I do not complain, we're in it for the science not for the credits...
Bear in mind the spirit of the Olympics : "Taking part is the message, not the winning..."

Greetings from Belgium ;-))
