User information on WWW.NFSNET.ORG not updating

xavion · 2003-10-11, 22:58

Hello. Just wanted to note something. I have been running NFS on my computer for the past 2 days. But, when I look at the user stats page of the 2^757 project, it says my last comm time was 5 Oct 03, and it has not added any of the lines I have processed since that date.

It seems that other users are not having this problem, as I see many people have their last comm time as 10 Oct 03. I have not made any changes to the program or the config files since 5 Oct 03. I've been doing all of my processing on the LoneStar Pool since I've started. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Seems I left an important piece of info out. My userid is xavion

Thanks for providing the userid. I was able to track down the machine's guid (M000C6E32675E) and looked things up.

From what I can see, you had been idle for the past week and started again on Friday evening.

Unfortunately, you forgot that our "day" is based on GMT and not your local time. As a result, the first valid result that you returned was counted as a part of Oct11.

The stats for Saturday posted a couple hours ago and they show that you put in a good day of sieving and contributed a personal best of 2.61 WU, thus doubling your total.

PS: A note to new members just joining our sieving. Since we are so close to the end of the sieving for 2,757- , you will be assigned directly to the 2,811- project. This will avoid the extra setup overhead in having you begin 2,757- only to be switched before you have a chance to make a meaningful contribution there.
