If you mean you have changed your E-mail address to a new one on all projects then yes all is fine give it a day or 2 and everything will show up again

your CPID has just got to synchronize itself again

As long as you use the same email address, then all the project stats will sum together - might take a day or two for the CPID's to sync, and then you'll be OK.

If you've deleted some PC's from SETI that's one thing and you might have lost overall credit as a result!!! - but if you've only deleted SETI from the PC's that's less likely to cause issues.....!

You'll get them back once the CPID have synced...!

was'nt going to panic for a couple of days.
just thought i would let you all know what was going on.

on the seti thing, i did remove a couple of my old pc's a couple of months from my days when i used to spend most of my time overclocking.
deleting them did'nt loose any of the credits they had gained and yesturdays update did'nt show a loss, so should be ok - i hope -

here's to going back into 15th  :wav:

So long as you delete hosts once all the results have been removed from the database and host all will be fine.

If you delete a host that still has WU's showing on it on the results page then you normally loose all credit associated with it

thats not what i found on seti.
the few i deleted a couple of months back had 200 or so credits on each one.
deleted three in total but never lost a single credit.
if this has changed then i stand to loose some 20k of credit :shock:

we will see :clock:

Don't worry.
Whether or not your host has credits when you delete it is irrelevant, you WILL NOT lose credit.

And, you can't delete a host that has
1, outstanding results
or
2, results not purged from the database

you should only be able to delete a host that shows 0 in the results column of your host listings

I added another server to my network recently (2.8Ghz P4 machine). That crunches exclusively for CPDN Seasonal Attribution in its spare moments. Hence the speed increase.
