Actually it can happen that fast when you turn tasks into junk every 15-20seconds.

Cheers.

LOL...it can happen to any of us for a number of reasons.
I subbed some new cards into a rig a number of days ago, set them up and let them run.....now I am seeing a lot of invalid tasks that were created days ago.
The problem is, they are not tagged as invalid until the first validation pass happens. So, even when you think you have fixed things, they still keep on popping up at a later date.

I do try to keep a pretty close watch on my rigs, but sometimes, things just get out of control before you can catch them.

No harm, no foul, crunching goes on.

And you are not one of those Annonomous users who will crunch thousands and thousands of invalids and or erros, And not answer PM's.
It happens to every cruncher now and then, Dont loose sleep over it. Just figure out what went south and fix it.

The good news, as already pointed out, is that you were paying attention and caught it, instead of letting it run like that for months.
