Would / if / could - all not relevant here. Facts count and facts tell that the situation you describe above is hopelessly exaggerated.

I am not the one to judge which reason to contribute to DF is a good one or a bad one. However, THIS THREAD is NOT about stats at all and I would like to see it kept on topic.

Uploading isn't a big problem? Members of other teams have gone from 20 full time folders down to 2 because of problems such as uploading.

He stopped folding on all the machines at home after noticing a few of them posting "910 missing protein" error messages when he uploaded the proteins that day. Of course, he was also less than pleased with all the time he spent uploading the information every day from the 18 machines (uploading twice a day).
Well, our team has of course also encountered a few MINOR problems with uploading in the past while I myself have never encountered one. This "910 missing protein error" - is this one at all about uploading? I don't know the details about this one (never encountered it).

A new scoring function is currently undergoing rigorous testing. If we find it to be more effective than the current function, it will be incorporated into the next update
For this one I am waiting - and where is it?
