Checkpoint affecting WUs.

Post by Smokesick »

Why when my checkpoint is set to 30 minutes, it shows me #/300 and when it is to 3 minutes, #/1500. Does the checkpoint bar affect anything, but this, and does this thing affect my way of getting the WUs? :(

Hello Smokesick, welcome to the forum.

I can't speak to the change in display of the Step numbers. But 3, 6, 9, out of 300 is the same as 15, 30, 45, out of 1500. Not really a big difference.

No, the checkpoint setting does not affect which type of WUs you will receive.

Thanks. I as well tought of the multiplying, but it was like it was a bit slower. For an example, I gathered 30 for about 10-20 minutes and Then 2 for 20-30. Which I think was a slower Folding, but no matter. The thing is that it doesn't affect the WUs, so thank you again for your reply. :)
