    Stats to Forum Error

    Bok, I have finally taken the time to better categorize the problem I complained about before - having to sign on to the Forum every time. The problem was that I was tranferring into the Forum from the Stats page. If I do this, there is 100% chance that my cookies won't be recognized and I'll have to logon.

    Coming direct to the Forum from a shortcut, I'm home free every time.

    Oh, if I have a page open on the Forum first, and use another instance to come from Stats, it works OK.

    ah, quite possibly because the link from the stats page is to free-dc.org not www.free-dc.org....

    I'll change it.

    nope, not a bug...

    The page totals show exactly that, a sum of the totals of members in the column above, the team totals show the actual team total..

    but, the catch with boinc is that the totals shown for a member are not necessarily what they have contributed to the team, seeing as with boinc your points stay with the team you crunched them on. It's impossible to track this externally.

    Let's say in a simplistic case, you have two members on a team from the beginning

    A has done 500 points
    B has done 600 points

    page total = 1100
    team total = 1100

    now C comes along who has already done 300 on another team, joins and completes another 100 (A and B have done no more)

    so now

    A has done 500 points
    B has done 600 points
    C has done 400 points (but only 100 on the team)

    page total = 1500 (500 + 600 + 400)
    team total = 1200 (500 + 600 + 100)

    And it probably works the other way too - if B then leaves the team, the team still keeps those 600 points, but the page total will go down.
