Hello guys, I have another question for you: what happens if I do not complete a task before the deadline? Yes any tasks not reported by deadline will be re sent to another user. |

And will something happen to my credits? thanks for the answer :) You only get credit for completed work. So no it won't affect you current credit. Also every task is sent to two computers and the results checked against each other, only then will you get credit. If you look near the top of this page you will see a black bar and on the right is the word "ACCOUNT" click on this to see your account details. Under the "Computing and Credit" heading you can click on the "Tasks - View" link to see all you current tasks and also any that have validated and any that are waiting "Validation" this is when you have finished a task but your "wingmate" (the other person crunching the same task) has not. There are other headings and descriptions but have a look first and feel free to ask any questions here. |
