    I finished my first task, but now it's sitting here with the message "Agent is idle due to devide profile settings". Has anyone else got this? I hadn't changed anything since my first task finished.

    Check your device settings. Has it got certain times it is allowed to access the net or run?

    It originally had been set to acess/run whenever it wanted. After the 1st task finished, it gave me this idle message. I went to the device manager and fiddled with the times, letting it connect from 12AM to 11PM, with no success. Now it shows execution time as 12AM to 7AM, and I can't change this. I don't think it ran during this time, but I can't be sure the computer was on during that period.

    Alright, I changed my clock to 12:35 AM and the task is now executing. So, am I stuck with these settings until the task is finished? I thought I read that the settings do not update until then?

    Somehow I ended up leaving the Apolyton team, but I've rejoined.

    My Accumulated Points: 2,212
    Total CPU Time (y:d:h:m:s) (Rank) 0:004:13:03:47
    Points Generated 2,212

    My current task sits idle except on Sundays, and will remain like that until it finishes, which I believe will be the first chance I'll have to change the settings.

    I've cracked the 40K mark.

    As of tonight, we've generated 164,066 points, returned 259 results, and have used over 262 days of CPU time.

    The average CPU time required per result is about 1 day for the team, and we generate approximately 26 points per hour each.

    Tassadar, look at his run time, when you have 47 hours, you will have quite a lot of points too. So in fact the question is; What are you running!?

    (47 days)

    And I think thats only an approximation of how much work your computer has done. Notice - he registered only 3 days before I did, yet has nearly 4 times the amount I do.
    My computer is fairly modest, I just leave it on for quite a while

    Dear Comarade Tassadar,

    I came up with few points in reard to your earlier post. Asher has 2 devices, if each of them have 23.5 days worth of CPU time its 47 combined. This number is not an approximation. It is based on real work time.

    yours, laurentius

    No. Everyone who does not get to 20,000 points by the end of the month wil be shipped off for re-education.
