I just posted this over on the Seti@Home boards. Any body else having lots of invalids or is it just me and my "wingmen" on all these wu's.

I'll self report but with a twist. This computer of mine has over 25% invalid tasks but when I look at the work units they are invalid for all the hosts trying to crunch them. Some of them have 10 or so invalid results. What is up with that? All of my computers have high invalids lately and all fit in to this category with multiple other hosts having an invalid result also.

I would say that it is not the hosts but rather something is very wrong with the work units being put out.



All tasks for computer 7519946

State: All (480) · In progress (154) · Validation pending (126) · Validation inconclusive (4) · Valid (139) · Invalid (57) · Error (0)

Known issue. They split a tape wrong and generated a whole slew of bad work units
