I left my team number as 0 so how did some of my WU's get claimed by 2 teams (one of which I object to strongly and want my name removed from their team list)?

CMQ may have been a BOINC project using F@Home in a VM and that's how 'marmot' got 1st attached here?

The 2nd team shows my last WU contributed on May 17, which is when I shut the machine off for the summer months, so it's likely mine but I can not get information on CPU used or IP address to confirm.

I have made no changes to the folding@home software installation since firing up that server after the daily temps dropped below 16C outside.

Are the API's to get better details about WU and user CPU stats broken and, if so, does the data still exist to be accessed later?

I really do not want my name associated with a team calling itself the 'master race'...
My name is on over 80 BOINC projects and I do NOT want it defamed.
So those WU's data need to be deleted.

Welcome to the folding support forum.

Your folding username is not unique, two others have used it before you ever did. The only unique statistics require use of a username and a team or passkey.

Using your username of marmot and team 0, shows a total of 54 WUs and 31,643 points. The points to the same username on team PCMR that ended in May were not yours, unless you entered their team number into your folding client. The team CMQ points date to so far back in time that last date of folding a WU was not being tracked in the database.

The APIs you refer to were turned off some months ago, the stats database could not keep up with the volume of WU entries being added and queried.

There is no connection between F@h and BOINC.

Thankyou for the welcome.

So if I continue to keep doing WU's here then I need to establish a passkey to become unique.
Currently, Free-DC shows no record of any F@H contributions from me https://stats.free-dc.org/userbycpid/17 ... 900abfbd08
Is that because of the failure to have a passkey, failure of the database exports or both?
I do not wish to continue running F@H if Free-DC does not track my contributions.

(Not only is there no connection to BOINC but there seems to be a tribal hostility going on when I recently mentioned F@H in some chat forums.)

Hopefully for the most part you won't find people on here bashing any other of the folding efforts .. but you may find that people are unable to help with non FaH issues .. this can happen when queries arise about "coins" or other non FaH reward systems which at its core is about people here knowing FaH and FaH issues but not any of the other "stuff" .. hopefully you will find people simply refer you to ths support system of whatever other thing is the issue.

I have to admit I have no knowledge of Free-DC and how you should need to setup your FaH settings or register your username with Free-DC and so I have to suggest you check the Free-DC forums for guidance on this

I am aware that Free-DC does track points for F@H: https://stats.free-dc.org/user/fah/PantherX69411
However, I don't know the details of when or how it does it.

Generally speaking, the most common third party site for stats is EOC: https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com ... =&u=444393
The site updates the stats every 3 hours directly from the provided files. However, there those aren't all the donors but most of them; The top 12,000 teams are processed where your team rank should be 800 or higher with some edge cases for Default team and maybe Google team.
