24h long WU - 1 credit

Post by bercired »

My PS3 has recently been given two WUs that took about 24 hours each, however only one credit was awarded after completing them.

Is that normal? Normally a WU takes about 6 hours, so I was expecting 4 credits after the 24 hour ones.

Has anyone had similar tasks allocated?

Thanks in advance. :?:

Welcome to the forums!

That is normal. Credit is measured in points, so those are worth far more points than the standard units (1250 points vs the 200-300 points awarded for the 6 hour units).

You can lookup the 3rd party stats provider KakaoStats to get an idea of what work units were 'counted' and how much they were credited for just by going in-depth into the individual Donor stats section.
