My result for the work unit with the name wm7215z_m7215z__37__64.31_59.32__10_12__6__70_1_sixvf_boinc356914_4 disappeared from my results table as soon as it was reported finished on 22/05/08 at 21:27:36 BST. I cannot give you a link or work unit number as it disappeared!
My Computer is 9654995.
As the Wu ran for about 12 hours on my crate and completed normally, I would hate to think that it was all just a waste of resources. Please find my poor little lost result :-)

If the result is returned and validated (and credited) it is removed from the BOINC database (and stored elsewhere). This is normal system behaviour.

Can't exclude *this was an error though...

It was definitely not processed in the normal way (if anything is normal for LHC see all pending small results for example). I have been running LHC for some time and have not seen this behaviour before. Thanks for the answer though :-}

I wondered if I was imagining things as I've also seen a couple of rapidly vanishing wus in recent weeks; however I'm pretty sure (i.e. sub-100%) the credit was properly issued a little while later.

mind you, if you reported 22/5/08 then you must be travelling faster than the LHC beam and 'c' - possibly a much greater problem to worry about!!! lol
