Hi Everyone, With all the validation issues going on, I've added some additional information to your watched videos page: http://volunteer.cs.und.edu/wildlife/user_video_list.php It will display at the top how many observations you've made, your total credit, your average credit per observation. In a perfect world it will be around 180 per video you've watched, approximately 1 per second -- however some videos are shorter than 180 seconds, and unsures in your observations lower their credit slightly (eg., if you have a valid observation with 2 unsures, then it will get 6/8ths the credit of a valid observation with no insures; 4 unsures would be 4/8ths, 5 unsures 3/8ths, etc). It will also show how many valid and invalid observations you have, as well as how many are awaiting validation. This should let you check and see if anything weird has gone on with the awarded credit and the validation. As the old validation scheme had some bugs in it which was causing some observations to be awarded credit multiple times, I just wanted everyone to check and verify for themselves that there's nothing funny going on anymore. I'm also planning on getting badges working today -- and I'm thinking it also might be interesting to have badges for accuracy (ie., a different badge if you're over 90%, 95%, 98% and 99% accurate). --Travis
