Can anyone explain to me why my points earned here on the site are 430251 BUT according to BOINC and BOINCStats they are only 61739? Does this site not report correctly to Boinc/BOINCStats?

WCG website reports WCG points. Boincstats reports BOINC credits.
1 BOINC credit = 7 WCG points. This difference in reporting dates back to the time when WCG used United Devices grid software many, many years ago. |

Confusing. Why not settle on just one?

This explaines a lot, I had the same question and it took me some time to find this answer. Didn't notice the difference between BOINC's 'work done' and the WCG points is exactly a ratio of 7..
Kinda confusing, since all other projects I added in BOINC do report the same credits/points as on the projects' websites. |
