Nothing is lost, no. Your bunker drop can be seen in the last table above and will have heads being scratched in the Ukraine

Looking good after the first 15mins. Remember the points showing here are only those earned by the team since the start of the challenge (15:45 UTC)

What about WU with 'validation pending' status? Do they count?

#27 Re: 13/2 - 20/2 Acoustic@Home challenge
No, not until they are validated. The good news is that some of the bunkers we dropped early will validate during the Challenge and will count towards it. Conversely, some WU will not yet be validated at the end of the challenge and hence will not count towards it.
Regardless though, they ALL count towards team totals for Formula Boinc marathon and other stats

Thanks for explanation, david.
I will do my best to avoid any cock up during next challenge.

Wow - that's pretty handy too Pete
I've got 126K points in Pending at the moment but I guess everyone is in that same situation.
Looking forward to the update on the Formula Boinc marathon

Pleasantly surprised by my laptop, i7-7820HQ CPU @ 2.90GHz completes a WU only very slightly slower than the Threadripper 2990WX. Pity it only has 8 threads

Pretty bdooly impressive guys looks like we'll comfortable exceed 3.5M in first 24hrs https://boincstats.com/en/stats/challen ... /chat/1052
My pending is still growing which is frustrating but probably a fairly good sign. 3678 WU and counting. Pete / scole: you guys must have massive pending totals after bunker drops?

I've learned loads from these guys since I started 6 months ago
I've also learned that SETI.USA have got enough members and enough clout to catch up ... and more ... so it ain't over until it is over

24hrs in and the team who actually called the Challenge have only 6 validated WU. Isn't that a bit unusual ?

I'm sure you don't mean me but I'll confess anyhow ... I thought I'd grab a bunch of WU in case they ran out. Unfortunately I forgot to stop WCG also downloading WU. It gave me lots of urgent WU which are hogging my threads even though Acoustics has 10x the priority of WCG. You know me ... I'd hate to abort them

I am guessing that the huge bunkers you guys dropped have maybe mostly validated now? They would have been contributing handsomely even after the initial drops.

Second place looks safe but I'll be staying on Acoustics as the points will still come in very handy for the year-long marathon. Plus, I am keen to see if I can get 7th user place in this challenge
