Assignment died of dysentery

Or was it these 3 and another elsewhere?

If it helps I just did a reconciliation to Prime95 results.
They match exactly...EXCEPT for 51879281.
PrimeNet shows it completed by me; GPU does NOT.
Now if it was one Spidey accidentally gave to someone else; no skin lost; but if and when that person completes it PrimeNet may deem it unneeded.

I was just back-reading and decided to search for this one... found it on my main P1 machine. Looked at the prime.log and found this:

 
[Thu Jan 12 13:03:37 2012 - ver 26.6]
Sending result to server: UID: flashjh/P1Main, M51879281 completed P-1, B1=505000, B2=10352500, E=12, We4: 3E947A63
PrimeNet success code with additional info:
CPU credit is 2.8932 GHz-days.

So I searched PrimeNet and found this:

I expected to see it was 'not needed' but PrimeNet accepted my P-1 also. Is that normal? I've tested P-1s before that had only B1 and PrimeNet didn't accept my new P-1 with B1 and B2. G272 did not give me credit... does someone else own this one also?

Sigh...

Have you looked at http://www.gpu72.com/reports/released_level/ recently? Over 17,000 first-time candidates taken to 72 bits.

Meanwhile, you've done less overall work in the last year (521.182 GHz Days) than we do in two hours....

17/100 is ~ 17% according to my senile computational capabilities.

Work is a four letter word.

I've done ~8 LLs on my home 'puter last year.
Can't understand why I haven't found another prime.

Keep up the good work!

That is a different P-1, you pushed the previous limits higher (improved previous result).

Just turned in another LL-DC 26066189. It was assigned to me by G272 on 19 Jan 2012. After I tunred in the result I checked PrimeNet and it says it was assigned to ANONYMOUS on 16 Jan 2012?

chalsall, I notice that most, if not all, the exponents that get returned to PrimeNet get assigned to ANONYMOUS on the same day... is that correct or is the system mistakenly assigning them to ANONYMOUS?

The way GPU272 assigns actual LL work (I include DC in that too) is by unreserving it, and then immediately re-reserving it as ANONYMOUS. What that means, is that anyone with the AID can then "claim" the work with that AID, and the AID will be assigned to that user account. Of course, GPU272 can't always reclaim an assignment as ANON, but seeing as only a small portion of all returned exponents are reclaimed, failures here and there are okay.

What this means for you is that
1) On the day it was assigned to you, with an AID, then under PrimeNet it should have been assigned to ANON either that day or the day before or something like that, whenever G72 did the unreserve/reserve. In this case, three days before is perfectly normal.
2) The next time your computer sends completion dates, PrimeNet will see the AID, see that it was assigned to ANON, and then "move" the assignment to be under your name. It should thus appear in your mersenne.org/workload page. I say "move" because the AID is still valid, it is not changed.

I would check the exponent page again, it is currently not assigned to anyone, and is listed as complete.

[DIGRESS]I don't think I've ever seen anything but the mention of E=12 results. Most of mine do run the B-S extension, but only at E=6. This machine has 16GB RAM, and allocations in proportion to that for P-1, I take it?[/DIGRESS]

I have 12 GB, spread across 2-3 workers depending. It's split around 50/50 between E=6 and E=12.

May I assume you are referring to TF (and P-1) work completed candidates?

GPU72 tries to keep 50 of the lowest available candidates in each class. But in order to transfer ownership to the LL/DC workers, the system has to release them from official ownership, and then try to reclaim as Anonymous.

But, of course, there are many PrimeNet users who are "ANONYMOUS"; not just "AnonSpidy". Once the GPU72 system releases the candidates back to PrimeNet their rules apply.

As an aside, please do note that according to both PrimeNet and GPU72, you did, and were credited for, the DC work you did on 26066189.

Thanks for all your help. I had read about it but it didn't 'compute' about the anonymous thing. The reason I posted wasn't because of getting credit, but because it said it was still assigned to anonymous when I checked and I didn't want someone to spend time on it if they checked. Primenet is correct now though.

[LaurV]

Some of my assignments (for which I still have valid keys!) are assigned to other persons, like for example 26116141 and 26206969 appear assigned to KYOJI_KAMEI. Is this another nickname for gpu272? (as gimps-visualisation is/was, or so?). Primenet does not complain about my key, just about the fact that there is another user having the assignment. Should I still work them on, or unreserve them all?

[bcp19]

I picked up 1 new DC yesterday and 2 more today, but when P95 talks to the server, it comes back and tells me the assignment key already belongs to another user. Upon checking, all 3 exponents are registered to the same person.
