We see the issue and are working on it. All returns from here on out should work properly.

No mention of points being awarded retrospectively. Bit of a nuisance if they don't but, I suppose, as long as the science got through OK, that's the important thing. Bad enough losing 60k points - would be a real shame if the 2 days crunching had been a complete waste.
 
Latest news on this from the Folding forums. They will be awarding points but it is not clear how many at the moment.

We have all the required information captured and are working with the stats team on a recredit.
We have sufficient information that we should be able to recredit everything *except* the proper bonus values; we will either credit the base values or give everyone a uniform bonus for the missing work units.

So, we'll either be getting the basic points (25,403) or a set amount of bonus regardless of how much the actual bonus would have been (apparently it's too much hassle to work out each one individually - I don't know how many results were affected). At least we'll get some points for the affected WUs - which is fine by me :)

Just uploaded another one to the same server - hopefully this one will be fine. With the points from this and the recredit (when it comes), I should be back in my rightful place - as top producer ;) (at least until wee beastie gets fired up :p).
 
Experimental stuff A3 server stopped awrding bonuses last week don't think they awarded any bonus for those wus. Think the T's & C's cover them as the bonuses are not guaranteed. But I feel your pain. Still couple more years and the bigadv wus will be done in a matter of hours not days :)
 
I dropped a few thousand points on that little snafu as well. This one was slightly different in that it didn't award any points at all. Hopefully they will decide that, since they're going to have to retrospectively award points, they may as well factor in some sort of bonus. Will just have to wait and see.
