Sorry guys (and girl): stats have been fixed.

I'm ashamed to say it was all my own fault, as I went a bit far to prevent useless work done by the server. Because SETI's scheduler was down, my 'improved' script decided to skip the SETI update.

... a good lesson for optimizers everywhere -- it's easy to optimize the "correctness" out of a process.

Willy, thanks for providing a very useful service.

Yeah, if you look at my sig file, SETI is gone... Oh well, maybe it will be fixed in a few hours...


Yep, Willy just shouted he's aware something went "castors up", and will take care of when he gets home in a couple hours.


He's done so!

Fortunately I've saved a screenshot of my sig, so can allways brag with my good ranking of thie few hours ;)

IMHO he can wait a bit longer, as my BOINC combined rank rised quite considerably with the loss of Seti ;)

Well, not seriously fell out... When I pull up the detail view for my account, I see my SETI stats... What made me fall out was the movement in my BOINC totals.... It currently looks like I've jumped almost 8k in positions today.... But that just may be because some incremental updates are in process.

<big grins>

Ah, the joys of working from home, stuck on con calls and watching message boards...

Wendy


You still have SETI showing? Mine went poof, so I have tanked big time! ;-)

-38536 in world position
-548..37 for RAC

LOL, looks about the same as a stock market crash!

Alinator

<EDIT> Dug a little more into my account and there are still SETI stats for some of my machines available, but they aren't connected to the overall stats, which is showing no SETI credit at all.

Yeah, I saw that... Nearly fell out.... Think Willy will be taking a look at it when he gets home....

Wendy


LOL, I guessing it's a side effect from the database cleanup going on.

I imagine it's going to make for a bit of work for Willy, since when it gets corrected it will spoff some of the stats he generates. That's assuming the problem wasn't at his end though.

Quick check your stats at BoincStats!

Talk about a credit correction. :-)

I guess a zero'ed or invalid stats xml got generated.
