PPD crashed, bonus points missing (SOLVED)

Recently I've noticed that my PPD has crashed to a few thousand. The work-units are being completed on time, and the estimated credit in the log files include bonus points. I know this because one unit should fetch me around 1700 or 5000 points, depending on the size of the unit, but I'm getting fewer points for more units (only a few hundred for two or so units). To add to the strangeness of this, I still occasionally get bonus points for some units, but not for others. The only common factor is that they're all bigadv v7 units.

Here's some info from the log:

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]12:54:42:WU00:FS00:0xa4:Folding@home Core Shutdown: FINISHED_UNIT[/font]

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]12:54:43:WU00:FS00:FahCore returned: FINISHED_UNIT (100 = 0x64)[/font]

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]12:55:17:WU00:FS00:Server responded WORK_ACK (400)[/font]

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]12:55:17:WU00:FS00:Final credit estimate, 1683.00 points[/font]

I get something similar logs to this for all units, which as you can see were successful, and the estimated credit was 1.6k, but I was only getting base credit.

Does anyone know what has caused this? Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Apparently my computer was being stupid and downloaded a bunch of wu's and decided not to do them, which put me very far below the 80% threshold.

Make sure you have entered a passkey as leaving it blank no longer allows QRB recognition.

Also how can you be rendering -bigadv on a 2600k? Remove the -bigadv tag, you don't have 16 threads.

Failing the above, make a thread on Folding Forum.
 
nope not anymore.

some time ago the upped the requirements to 16 cores. Doesn't mean that you will stop folding though, as the client detects that you do no have enough cores (do note: Threads are also counted as cores by the client) it just ignores the flag and sends you regular SMP WUs.

The passkey is definitely there, and I just did a 6900 wu recently (took 2 days), however it only got me base points.

I'll get rid of flag and see if it helps, though.

I've been folding for a week without errors now so I might ask over on the folding forums when I have time.

Thanks anyways.
