I screwed up somehow when I signed up for PrimeGrid, and it defaulted my name to "Larry", when I've signed up for WCG, Correlizer, Neurona@Home, and MW@Home, with "VirtualLarry".

Yet, I used the same e-mail address for all of them.

There are combined BOINC stats, are there not?

How will they be scored, in this case, and under what name will they be?

Where can I check this?

Just wondering, since I'm over 45mil in PrimeGrid, and still way under 1mil on all the others.

This is how your combinded stats look like:

In TeAm Anandtech stats: 47 904 223 points

Your personal stats:

Virtual Larry ______ Current Credit
Correlizer _____________ 612 306.36
Neurona@Home ____________ 19 619.85
NumberFields@home _______ 47 159.07
PrimeGrid ___________ 47 056 127.00
World Community Grid ___ 169 010.83

Seems correct to me ...
It is the e-mail addy which is the important identifier, not the name.

Thanks Peter. But where's Milkyway@Home? I signed up for that over a week or two ago. (Using "VirtualLarry")
I'm pretty sure I joined the TeAm in that project too.

Do you have any credit on that project? I notice that until you have credit, your name isn't associated with it.

Like I signed up for Poem, then realized my GPU couldn't help there. So, it's not mentioned in my stats roll up - and I had to crunch some WU's in Seti before I could get in on the Gauntlet, too...

Are you sure you used the same e-mail addy as for the other projects? Because I can see you in the MilkyWay@home stats and in the BOINC-stats for MilkyWay@home ...

Ahhhh, the problem solved: there are two "VirtualLarry": one with your Milkyway-stats only (#206 with 921 423 credits) and one with all the other projects in position #17 with 48 028 551 credits. Please change your Milkyway e-mail-addy to the same as the other projects (often a spelling error) and all will correct itself in a couple of days.

But... I didn't misspell it. I joined MW@Home on my main machine, and it auto-filled my email (from typing it in from other projects), I typed in my password, and it joined. Thus proving that my email was correct, no?

Not necessarily. You should check in the MW@home account settings. If it is correct there then it will correct it self in a few days. What I mean: compare the e-mail addys in all your projects. to see (with your own eyes) that they are the same.

Just checked the MW@Home site, YES, my e-mail IS correct.

Clicking on the link under the account settings, for "BOINC Combined Stats", leads to this page, which DOES NOT have MW@Home on it. Which is really wierd, since I linked to it from the MW@Home account page.

Edit: Got up this morning, and it seems to be fixed now?

I had this idea, I took my zip code out of the MW@Home account info, since I don't think I entered it into the others. I don't know if that's what did it, or if it just combined last night anyways.

all i know is that your PPD was 1.2 million yesterday according to BOINCstats. however, if you look at yesterday's individual project totals, you'll see that the sum comes nowhere near 1.2 million. your actual MW@H output yesterday was only 68,610.30. after looking at the link you provided above, i noticed that you've accrued just over 1 million credits since you joined the project back in January. if MW@H only just now showed up on your BOINCstats page, that would explain the 1.2 million credit dump you had yesterday...
