My logs show Project: 14256 (Run 0, Clone 4117, Gen 30) downloaded at 00:37 GMT on the 6th: Why was I assigned this WU when it appears to have already been completed almost 24 hours prior, and should I dump it and get another?

When a server has certain problems it can get confused about which WUs have been completed and it may end up reassigning it (e.g.-if the server crashes and some other issues that happen rarely.) Another possibility is something delayed the credit reports being sent to the stats server -- maybe even from a Collection Server. There's a team looking into the causes because obviously that's a waste of resources but every WU must be completed, so it's better to do one twice that end up missing a result.

You both got credit for it, though. https://apps.foldingathome.org/wu#proje ... 117&gen=30

Looks like it got sent out again today. This one may be worth keeping an eye on. Not particularly worried about who gets credit, just trying to flag stuff that doesn't look right in the hopes that it will uncover the information needed to fix the problem.
