Does anyone have an explanation for why a WU being reissued after a "Timed out - no response" is sent to two different computers within 10 seconds. It would appear the first computer to respond receives credit but the second remains as "pending". An example WU is 1116808887. I did a search on what I thought were the keywords and came up empty. If I missed the explaining thread, a pointer would be good enough. |

It would appear the first computer to respond receives credit but the second remains as "pending". Simple, tasks 0 and 1 were late, so tasks 2 and 3 were sent, (task 1 was propably a resend to that's why there's a 3 day difference in send time/date) Task 1 then arrives late, and validates against task 2 when it arrives too, task 3 is too late to validate, and is likely to sit in limbo until someone fixes this validator Bug, Claggy |

Thanks. |
