Back to me again.....
Sorry Chelsea
- I'm afraid the Trophy is back with me again - yesterday my X2 machine returned
7,581 points with 13 results!
(NB. For the benefit of those who aren't familiar with the way Boinc works, and find these returns almost unbelievable - I will briefly explain:
When the WCG UD Agent completes a result, you get the points immediately - therefore what your machine produces during a particular day is immediately reflected in the Stats, and your daily totals are very similar.
With Boinc, the results require validation before points are calculated and applied to your daily points total - in some cases this can take several days.
Therefore if all these results awaiting validation get validated and the points allocated on the same day, then your points total for that particular day is going to be exaggerated - hence these big scores above.
This is why your daily totals vary significantly - some days your points total is lower than normal, then the next alot higher.
So to get a huge total you just need loads of pending results to get validated on the same day - easy eh?
