Re-Running Suspect Exponent
 

So, I returned my first "Suspect" test: [url]http://www.mersenne.org/report_exponent/?exp_lo=78096433&full=1[/url]

I understand that this would be re-issued at some point to someone as a first time test. If I wanted to re-run it myself, is there a way I can "check out" the exponent again for testing on a different PC? I'm fairly new, but am familiar with requesting manual assignments and editing worktodo.txt files. I wasn't able to find a way though of checking out just that exponent. I tried entering a min and max of that exponent, but it says no work is available that meets that criteria.

At the moment it is unassigned so you can add to your worktodo.txt:

DoubleCheck=78096433,75,1

Then communicate with PrimeNet and you will get an assignment key.

Excellent, thanks!

Do note that if you get a matching residue, it still won't be considered verified and will need a triple check. That said, I've done double checks of my own assignments when trying to verify an overclock. Madpoo does some kind of checking for self verified results and will usually do triple checks when he finds them.

Correct... just a little something that some of us do around here... if someone verified their own test, we (typically just me now that we're all caught up) will run an independent triple-check.

Not that I don't trust anyone in particular, I just distrust everyone equally. LOL
