Hi, I got a question.
I run 3 PC's offline at work. I use SBQueue on one of them as a proxy. When tests are finished I put them on a USB stick, take them home and flush them on my personal PC.
So far so good. I've been doing this for about 2 years now but today I accidentally flushed 2 blocks again. I didn't see an increase in my points after flushing so that is why I suspected a double submit. Now the question: Will this double submitting be seen as cheating (attempt) and will points be subtracted?

I wonder if there is a trail/time stamp stating it came from the same pc? If not then the server might think its a complete set of test residue. Interesting question.

Another option crossed my mind. Could those be error-fix test which already were granted points for during first and second pass? Vaguely remember reading something about a test only receives credit for the first 2 complete passes. But since I joined SoB I cant remember the error-fix cue being populated so I cant tell if this happened before. ;)

They'll just be seen as "unexpected" results. You only get credit for tests which are actually assigned to your account. If you submit the results for a test, anything after that would be unexpected since the test isn't assigned to you anymore.

Alien88,
Would the server also see a wu as "unexpected" if a remote box was crunching a second pass but it was only crunching and reporting very infrequently.Thinking it has expired I dropped it on the website under my user name. When it was turned again and reported it showed up on the website as active again. Do I just let it finish the wu or do I drop it again? Thanks.
e,
I would let it finish since it is ligit work done, what will happen eventually is you will lose the credit unfortunately.
