Hi.
Please look at this: http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/results.php?userid=105635
This are MINE WU. Some of them has zero claimed credits, but granted credits are OK (as far as i know i have computed them).
This is because I\'m seaman and only way to compute WU on board (and to utilizate some ship\'s computer) is to download more WU on my laptop. But because of this, each previously downloaded WU changes state to \"client detached\". In reality i compute all this WU (or at least partly) and after return home i send back results.
Then climate give me granted credits, but in looks like it looks.
Is my effort valuable for project, or should i give up? And if there can be situation that somebody will erase my credits as \"cheaty\"?
Sorry for english mistakes - i\'m in hurry must back on board in 30 minutes.

Don\'t worry about the credits, they only get updated once a day.(Somewhere around 6.00 AM UK time, I think.)
And the only place that they are kept up to date is on the totals pages; one for each computer, one on your account total, and one on any team page.

The \'detached\' message is just a side effect of BOINC; it doesn\'t affect this project.

The server will accept your results and give you credit even if you upload them from another computer.

Thank you for taking the trouble to process the models while at sea. I hope your ship takes you to lovely sunny ports.

Thank You for answers :) Now i can double my effort for this project :)
Pitty - but now its cold - Quebec. Later won\'t be any warmer (Norway). But at least i can go to town, download WU, and taste local beer (and that is most important!! :P )
