So I happened to look through the top hosts list the other day to see perhaps what RAC I could get if I switched everything over to Cosmo if/when they fixed the stats update.

And I found this host http://www.cosmologyathome.org/show_host_detail.php?hostid=107273. It's the top host with RAC right now. Which is odd since it's an old single core athlon.

Check out the tasks... 250s runtimes... So someone found a way to do no science and get tons of credits. It's a shame since I thought people did this stuff to help with science.

While the user is set to anon... There does happen to be a top user with the exact same RAC down to the decimal point numbers when you look at their profile. Sure it could just happen to be the same, so I'm not going to point any fingers.


Though as this person knows, the admins don't do anything and they will be able to just keep doing what their doing without anything happening for quite some time. Which is a shame.
