I just signed up again a few days ago and was able to see my old stats of what i did in the past. They now call them Classic Work Units and it give me the number of files that i did along with the computing hours spent doing those units. But that has all changed probably a long time ago and now it looks like Its (Total Credit) and (Recent Avg Credit) Im guessing here.....The total credits i guess is the number of files that my puter has done.....Does the recent Ave Credit mean the average time it take my computer to do a file ? If that is so.....Is there a total time anywhere spent in this new way of Seti keeping track of things ? Thanks |

Welcome back. And things have changed in the years since you left! The "credits" are not the same as the old "number of tasks". Each completed and validated task gets a number of credits, which may range from a very small number to several hundred. The exact number is determined by a lot of things, including the type of task, you computer, your wingman's computer and your respective runtimes. RAC (Recent Average Credit) is a rolling average of your credit, the timebase for which is several days.
