When I was checking my individual account page thing, I noticed that several of the numbers I was supposed to be factoring didn't appear in my list. I then checked the "Hourly World Test Status, Assignments Report" file, and found that the numbers I had have now been assigned to other people. I have not released these numbers back, and the program is still working on them (they are still in the worktodo.ini file). Also, one of the exponents I got assigned doesn't seem to appear in the list at all... Anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening?
Here's my worktodo.ini: Factor=20563583,59 Factor=20563637,59 Factor=20563651,59 Factor=20563657,59 Factor=20563663,59 Factor=20563687,59* Factor=19287997,64 Factor=20588999,59* And the corresponding entries in status.txt: 19287997 F 64 1.8 10.0 60.0 03-Oct-02 09:28 02-Oct-02 15:01 TwistedFate Barry2 20563583 F 59 0.0 3.0 61.0 04-Oct-02 08:47 griphagen C_adm22_0510 20563637 F 59 0.0 15.0 75.0 04-Oct-02 08:48 ka9dgx LM11_02 20563651 F 59 0.0 4.0 61.0 04-Oct-02 08:48 griphagen C_adm22_0560 20563657 F 59 0.0 6.0 66.0 04-Oct-02 08:57 FreeTibet CPQI1 20563663 F 59 0.0 12.0 72.0 04-Oct-02 08:59 mael1 Plato As you can see, I still have one of the numbers I was assigned, but 5 have been given to someone else, and 2 (marked with *) don't appear in the lists anywhere. P.S. I only checked these numbers out within the last few days, and so it's not that they've expired... -- Barry Stokes Luck can't last a lifetime, unless you die young. -- Russell Banks _________________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers
