Never mind!
All tasks marked "abandoned"
Does that mean they get resend to other users?
If so, my wingmen will be happy.

'Resend lost tasks' is a 'server thing' - you can't decide if on or off (or you don't have the control about it, to use it if you want/if it's needed).
AFAIK, this feature is currently switched off by the admins.

If the tasks are abandoned now, they will be send to other PCs.

Yes, the Transitioner will create an additional replication for each of those and send them to other users.

You should check to be sure those tasks were deleted on your host, otherwise it will crunch them but cannot get credit.

Thanks Guys!
It would have been bad, if the tasks would sit in "No mans land" until they expire and the wing men would have to wait forever to get their credits.
