Since about 5 days users on Asteroids@home do not get WUs anymore, and since 7 days TN-Grid has same/similar problems
- read the above links: so far only the TN-Grid admin has provided reasons for the problems; unfortunately: no word from the Asteroids admin
The RAC (recent average credit) is used to give Gridcoin users their reward/money via the magnitude:
- e.g. when only a few users get work from BOINC project B1, those are lucky, b/c they can increase their RAC, while others at B1 can not.
- or when no one gets work then all can "ride on free magnitude" and use their hardware meanwhile for another BOINC project
I looked at the top20 accounts from the Gridcoin team from both projects, and:
- these 4 accounts appear in both top20 lists
As you can see these 4 pools/users get 50% or more of the project's RAC. They would "profit" the most from the current situation (no or not enough work).
