Not only did my workstation not download and new wu's over the weekend
but when it did, on start up this morning the two were identical :eek:

Must have been because they both asked for WU at exactly same time - glade I spotted this - as they would both take 5day at 50% on my HT workstation :o and I would have only got credit for one :(

yep - killed them both, (yes I know it's bad for the science but wasn't going to risk no points for 5 day work) got a 996 (380ppd) and a 1809 (180ppd)

Edit: that said you both missed the point. THERE ARE THE SAME WU.
Not the same type of wu (which would suck) but the actual identical WU -
Look at the highlighted details - Run 62, Clone 56, Gen 1 .

Separate threads, separate folders, separate downloads but identical WU's variants. :eek:

indeed - though these seem to have downloaded at the exact same time

it's certainly not meant to work like that, the server must have somehow got confused :confused:

Thank you rich - for a moment there I thought I was going mad.
But I fully agree with Vent above regarding EUE - the science needs it's answers afterall.

as far as I know the only time the exact same WU is sent out again is if it EUE'd or has gone past the preferred or final deadline

at least that's always been the case previously unless I missed something :o
