I see that some users have their SETI@home classic CPU time listed in their profile. I joined the project during the pre-BOINC time, and I know I crunched a decent amount of cpu cycles at that time, but I can't seem to find a record of it. I think I used that account under and old email address (which I am pretty sure is gone). It was a long time ago, but I would have thought that when I signed up for BOINC when it rolled out I would have at least originally used my old email account. I think I have a certificate of participation that I can dig up. I'm sure that doesn't make things easy at all. Does anyone know how I would get that information, and how I can have it listed in my profile? |

If you remember your original username you could try looking up your stats on the original website http://seticlassic.ssl.berkeley.edu/user_profile/profile_menu.html Edit.. Nope, links no longer work...Sorry |

I believe you need to know/remember what that old e-Mail Address was. IF you did manage to create a BOINC Account with that old e-Mail Address, just Login here with that e-Mail Address and SETI Account Password and you'll get into that Account. Once in, you can Update the e-Mail Address to your current Address. Also, once in that Account, the SETI-Classic Credits Earned "SHOULD" be reflected there. Good Luck. :-) TL [EDIT:] Zalster beat me to it... TimeLord04 Have TARDIS, will travel... Come along K-9! Join Calm Chaos |

I have done a little digging, and it appears that I did switch my account over to my current email address. I then remembered that I started a group for the company that I was working for at the time (it was just me and one other coworker). I found my user statistics on the group page, and it appears that the last workunit I returned was in 2005, and I didn't start back up until 2017. During my "sabbatical", it looks like the old system was shut down in 2006. I tried logging in to my old account (and looking up my stats), and it says that it can't find the server at all. I'm guessing there isn't a way for me to get these stats transferred to my Boinc account. Well, I suppose it can be done if someone working on the project is able to dust off the old servers to get that information transferred over, but I am assuming that is time better spent elsewhere. Still, it would be cool to have. |

See Instructions for SETI@home Classic users. Link to that page seems to have gone missing during some website makeover. I'll send admins an email. |
