I have been crunching 24/7 with work being downloaded and uploaded, but still no credit has been issued to my account for weeks. Everyone else on my current team has gotten big chunks of credit since the validator was turned back on. They are all running the windows version. I am up-to-date with my version, and am even running the Mac optimized client from the world renowned Team MacNN. I have lost over two thousand of spots in the world rankings. I have gotten credit on Climate Prediction. I usually have a RAC of 40 or 50, but now have about a 17 and falling. Should I detach/reattach again and lose the current work waiting to be uploaded? |

I have switched 2 G4 bipro from classic seti to boinc 4 days ago. They have crunched and uploaded ~50 WU, and I have still no credits (0,00 !). Everything is up-to-date, also running the MacNN optimized 7450 boinc and seti clients. Do I have to wait (days, weeks ) ? or is there a problem with this particular software, like a bad credit estimation ? Benchmarks seem reasonnable ( 1000 to 1200 Mflops per cpu). |

Yep, same issue for me. Been crunching 24/7 on my Dual 1.8 G5 for about three days now and still no credit shows up. Using latest version of the BOINC Client (4.09) and can't see anything else that could be wrong. This is obviously a real problem. I wonder if Windows/Linux users are experiencing similar difficulties. I wonder if all Mac users are suddenly not receiving credit. Perhaps we should suggest a poll to see how many are and how many are not receiving credit? |

I'm kind of new at this, but I think that everything is okay. You don't get credit until someone else crunches the same work unit as you. If they get the same result you did, then you are credited. The servers have all been down lately, so it's possible that the units you crunched either haven't been sent back out again, or that the person they were sent to gave up. Don't worry, in two weeks the work units recycle, so they will be sent out again. Just give it a few weeks before you can expect to see a steady flow of credits. |
