Weird WU?

I have not been folding long, and I just noticed that the 2 Wu's that I have been working on this afternoon and this evening are very odd. They are using the FAHCore_65.exe and they look like this:

It goes on like this up to frame (127) and the client says that there are 74 left. Any ideas with what is going on?

It's a tinker.

Will it go back to regular Wu's on it's own? Or do I need to fix it? Will I get points for it?

You will get points for it. Just let it finish. After it finishes, use the flags -advmethods -forceasm

You have to bear with me here. How do I go about using those flags?

How do you use the different flags?

Create a shortcut to your client and put the flags in. Example:

"C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\FAH3Console.exe" -advmethods -forceasm

Alright. Thanks .

Been getting Gromacs for so long that I forgot what a Tinker looked like...Just started on a 70 pointer tho, so I have no intention of disturbing its progress at this point...Like the Bigguns...

Fold that Tinker...Its all good.

Argh, I just got another. Are these things actually productive...or is it something that is rather obsolete?

Well yesterday, last night, and this morning I did 3 tinker's and from what I can tell I got no credit for them. My production for the last 24hrs is 0 WU's. Is there a reason behind this?

It probably has to do with Stanfords stats meltdown.

Don't panic, tinkers are credited and I'm sure the points will turn up.

I think I saw something at Stanford saying there was something interesting that can only be further investigated by Tinkers - but that could have been from a while back, I forget!

Well I have two gromacs in reserve that I'll run out and if gromacs get dropped by Stanford, sobeit
