Where's my -bigadv WU?

Apparently, after the last -bigadv was completed, FAH wasn'rt able to upload it so I got a non-bigadv instead. So now instead of 25,000 PPD, I'm getting 12,000 PPD.

And I'm not sure it's uploaded the completed WU yet. :(

Ah hah!

I found it. At least I know the WU got uploaded. Hopefully, this means I will get a -bigadv after this WU is done.

Yeah you, will. Same sort of thing happened to me once. I've been having a bit of a problem with my bigadv's. It takes almost 2 hours for the cores to shutdown. The first I time I thought it hung up so I stopped it and when I restarted it gave an A3 like you got, but the next one was a bigadv.
 
Yup, I did get a -bigadv at last. :)

It takes almost 2 hours for the cores to shutdown. The first I time I thought it hung up so I stopped it and (lost) a bigadv.

I timed a couple of them : 2 hrs 5 min was the last one, the next wu started about 2 hours later. I am seeing 4-8 hours between the finish of one and the start of another...

Okay, thanks. I was thinking something was wrong since it was taking so long.
 
Some bigadv wu's have been lost recently, so check your results to be sure they have been recorded.
 
I'm having same problem today with 3/4 outstanding bigadv wu needing credit from over 6 hours ago.
One has just gone through in last few minutes so maybe we have to be patient.
Kills CURRENT PPD though.
Hopefully science not lost.
 
That has not been my experience. I seem to finsish one and get a new WU right away.

And I did get credit for the last WU.

This is the first time in a month since I started the -bigadv WUs that I habe had a problem so without question it is worth it to Fold the big WUs.
I still have not received my first -bigadv WU. Is it still worth it with all the downtime?
