I have just gone into my result apge and it says that their has been 40 tickles. However looking at the percentage and the complete tickle page there has only been 36. How have I gained 4 tickles and have I gained the credit for these non exixting tickles?

Edit percentage says 33.39% which is 34, so where is the extra 6 tickles?

These are trickles, not tickles.
Each type of model has trickles, which are small messages to the server containing some small info about model (temperature, how far is it etc.) and it also tell server about the progress of parcitucal model.

Slab used to have 72 trickles, SC 120, BBC Coupled model are 160 trickles.
So, only CM3l are 1 trickle=1% progress.

I switched to BOINC 5.* when I started spinup, and I\'m not sure which of these is doing it, but there is now a trickle every time I restart BOINC. It\'s a different type, and I think it just tells the server: I\'m back. No credits.

Sorry I meant trickles I have 40 on my latest work unit, however I have done only 34 trickles that is what I am asking. My machine does trickles when switched on I am not worried about them. It is the forma I am asking about.
