Who is Alunik?

He is on the team. He gets credit, then the next day the same amount of credit is taken away. What is going on here? _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!

It's a CPID problem. There's another one in our team doing it too, that I posted in another forum. Wish we had a way to contact them to help them sort it out so it'd stop spazzing. _________________

Maybe because it's early, or maybe because the coffee I drank hasn't kicked in yet but I followed what you were syaing until "CPID". If you could clarify that one part. _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!

CPID is your Cross Project Identifier, it's what BOINC uses to figure out what computers and accounts are you across multiple projects. Every time you add a project you get a new CPID from that project, but over time they will synchronize so that your CPID is the same for all projects (you can find it on the "Your Account" page on the project website).
There are some situations where your CPID won't synch, or takes a long time to. There are also situations where BOINCStats specifically has issues keeping track of hosts on an account. I don't really know which this is, I'd have to go find the user on a different statistics site to find out.
*Edit: Having done that (Stats), I'd have to say it's something going on with the users CPID. I don't know why it wouldn't have sorted itself out by now, but it appears that something is causing the project(s) to delete the host information (zeroing the credits) and then recreate it the next day or two later. Weird stuff. Wish we could contact the users, maybe they could sort it out if they were aware. _________________

Ok, thanks. The guy has the forum listed. His web site won't come up here (at work), maybe it will come up for someone else. _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!
