From John McLeod VII
Teams only get credit for work that is turned in while a person is a member of that team. When the person leaves, the team does not loose the credit.


A member of our team has stated that when Dazza moved from our team to another all his credits transferred with him, I said this couldn't happen as that is what I have read on various other websites and from what I have read in these forums.

Well I had a look and yes all the credit has gone over to the team new, I thought this couldn't happen

Any ideas?

UBT & Dazza

Checked on BOINC Synergy Stats service too and that says the same

Hi

I think you mixed that.
The member who changed the team doesn´t loose his credits.
But the Team credits stays also with the credits he crunched while he was in this Team.

No I haven't mixed anything up all the credits he had have gone to the new team including any credits that were crunched for our team.

If you look at his total credit and the total credit he has put into UBT they are exactly the same.

If credits didn't transfer over then you would expect to see his total on UBT to be lower than his actual individual credits but they are exactly the same so that suggests all credit was transferred to the new team

Did Lookers team total decrease by Dazza's amount? If not, then your team still has credit for all he crunched while a member. His total individual credits will still show what he crunched while on your team, but they aren't counted into the new team's total. As far as the new team, he begins at zero, but his stats will continue to show all credits.

What about earning Credit while a member of a Team?
The accumulation of Credit in your own account will never change regardless of membership on a Team. You will always accumulate the appropriate Granted Credit if you are on a team, you will accumulate the same Credit if you are not on a Team.

When you join a Team, you join it with a zero balance. After you have joined a team, the Granted Credit is added to your Total Credit balance and to the Team's Total Credit balance.

When you leave the Team, the Credit you earned while a member of that Team will stay with that Team. You do not take it with you to add to another Team's Total Credit balance.

Climateprediction.net is an exception to this. Due to various complications, all of a user's Credit is allocated to their current Team. So Climateprediction.net Team Credit moves with you.

Hi,

I don't think Lookers lost any credits.
You had just passed 10 million credits when I left and you never dropped below that milestone.

I felt quite guilty about leaving but was relieved to see it did not affect things for you.

Graeme seems to thing all your credits have gone from the team, it looks like if from looking at the Stats, but I'm stuck now I don't know!!

Sad to see you leave, but things happen

Sorry as well but the team members did not run many other projects, with the exception of yourself, and I wanted a team that were keen to rise the tables on most projects.

I actually left when on over 200,000 credits and if you check the other projects you'll see that the figures don't add up to your totals.

ie Primegrid you have a project total of over 7800 credit but individual user stats only add up to about 4000 credit.
