Is the EM stats box off? It tells me I have 3751 WU to my name.... Statsman tells me I have 3457 and the Stanford page tells me I have 3432.... now I know why the Stanford page is off, I accidentally forgot the space between my name and the team name on one of the boxes I set up and I have 25 WU on that name, which Stanford sees as seperate but Statsman sees as the same. But where is Electron Microscope getting 3751 WU from??? That's way off.....

Don't know. EM tells me I have between 30 and 15 more then I have at any given time.

I noticed the same thing but thought it was because Stanford hadn't updated. The discrepancies not as bad as Sickboys though.

I just finished one on each machine (2) and EM jumped from 413 to 428, I know the folding page is not updated yet and it reads 415. In 3hrs. it should update to 425. I'll see what happens.

im pretty sure EM just looks in the stats database and shows the total amount of work units of everybody that is folding with the same name as you or has your folding name as part of their name, and it doesn't look at teams either, so the total amount of work units that EM shows could be the total wu's of you and a few others combined. On my EM it says i have 1389 wu's when i actually only have 737wu's.

ya, i was right. i just found the EM readme file and here is what it says:

You can get your WU total one of two ways. First, you must have an active connection of some type to the Internet. Once you have that, Double Click the box across from Time Per Frame with your left mouse button. The word "working…" will appear and EM will try and determine how many total Work Units you have uploaded to Stanford. This is a total so if someone else is using the same name you are then you will see totals that won't match what you may see in this box. The search engine at Stanford will bring back all users with the name of "Rick" if that is your user name. I am working on a way to refine this process, but it may never be fixed and working perfectly for multi-use names. There is also a setting in the Options menu for recovering your Work Unit totals automatically. Each time you start EM and you are connected, EM will try to determine what your current totals are. It will also do it when the system EM runs on sends a completed WU to Stanford and starts the next WU.

Dang.... if the Morgan is making that much of a difference.... I can't imagine what Duals would do!! :)

I just saw a pic of the K7Master-D and the A7M266-D and I can honestly say I'm very excited.... hopefully these boards will hit the streets soon.
