You are never guaranteed credit. Credit calcuations will not even be started until three successful results are returned. That can take months. Even then, you will not get credit if your result is an error, or if your result does not match the other results, or if there is some glitch in the servers, or if there are too many results (this last is probably a bug). ------- Tom Gutman |

If you look closely on the team & account-data-pages, in lower left corner a "Generated date time" is displayed. "Your account page" on the other hand isn't cached, so is often showing higher credit than the rest. |

Read and weep Guido From a post by Paul; From the "Rules and Policy" =============== Liability SETI@home and University of California assume no liability for damage to your computer, loss of data, or any other event or condition that may occur as a result of participating in SETI@home. Other BOINC projects Other projects use the same platform, BOINC, as SETI@home. You may want to consider participating in one or more of these projects. By doing so, your computer will do useful work even when SETI@home has no work available for it. These other projects are not associated with SETI@home, and we cannot vouch for their security practices or the nature of their research. Join them at your own risk. ============== From the Credit Page: Claimed credit is reported to a project when your computer communicates with its server. The granted credit that you receive may be different from the claimed credit, and there may be a delay of a few hours or days before it is granted. This is because some BOINC projects grant credit only after results have been validated. ================ From "Getting Started": Please keep in mind: There may be a delay of several days between when your computer reports a result and when it is granted credit for the result. Your User page shows you how much credit is 'pending' (claimed but not granted). The credit-granting process starts when your computer reports a result to the server (not when it finishes computing the result or uploading the output files). In rare cases (e.g. if errors occur on one or more computers) you may never receive credit for a computation. ================= There is no implied commitment by the developers of BOINC, any of the projects, or anyone else that this is a "risk free" environment. Nor that it is even worth your time. We are volunteers, they are trying to stay responsive to us, and to create a new environment for the pursuit of science. As much as I am unhappy with some of the day to day problems, we have come a long way from when I first participated in the BOINC Beta program (I came in after they had switched from the astropulse application to the SETI, for what that is worth, though BOINC insisted that the WU were AP's). Anyway, smile, it could be worse ... Semper Eadem So long Paul, it has been a hell of a ride. Park your ego's, fire up the computers, Science YES, Credits No. |

Team credit is granted only while someone is attached to a team. Credit earned for a team stays with a team. BOINC WIKI |
