Way back you could compare yourself against others who joined SAH on the same day, is this still possible? If so how?

Yes, it is, but it's maintained on third party stats sides like BOINCStats. Your statistics are here. Hint: Click on the link next to where it says "Link to position in 'sign-up date' stats" ;-)

Hope that helps

I wish I could compare myself to others who signed on 2004-12-20, but it's impossible because SETI changed my sign up date to 1999-04-03 and they're participant-unfriendly, so that they don't change it back...

Which is why I considered everything I had done on classic as ancient history and never bothered linking the two accounts together. ;-)

I couldn't see any point to the link, since you'd be comparing apples to oranges and there wasn't going to be any attempt to convert the Classic WU's to BOINC credits. :-)

The problem is that I never took part in SETI Classic; and in 1999 I had no internet connenction!

Yes, I just read your other thread, and I agree your's is a different and legitimate beef. :-)

OTOH, we're pretty lucky there is even a SAH project left to crunch for at this point given the financial situation.

At this point since you're not in to deep credit wise yet you could abandon this account and rejoin under new credentials. Not ideal I grant you but at least you'd have a more accurate signup date.

<edit> I take that back, you are in too deep to think about abandoning any account after looking on BoincStats. ;-)
