Well, a bunch of us lost BOINC credits after the Milkyway@home server crash.

Server Crash
Our database crashed or got corrupted this morning and it's looking we lost a lot of user accounts and credits. For now if you lost your account just make a new one. We're looking into this right now and are trying to restore all that we can.

Server Crash Update
Looks like labstaff is in the process of restoring the lost data right now. Hopefully we didn't lose too much after the restore is done.

Server Database Restored
We restored the server to this mornings backup. Let us know if you're still having any problems.

Updated User Stats
Since some users are still reporting missing credit, I've re-run the stats export which should hopefully update their credit to what it should be after the restore. This might take a little while to show up correctly, but let me know if this has fixed your missing credit, if you're still missing credit. The only credit that you should be missing would be from 4am this morning til around 2pm this afternoon.
Hopefully, all stats exports should head back to what it was before, otherwise I'm 14k credits down (not too bad, compared to Peter-B, 5 million credits..)
