I ran into a little trouble with another user because of the way Prime95 communicates with PrimeNet.

I grabbed a number for a triple check and started it using Advanced>Test. The test started immediately. But, Prime95 waited for over an hour before communicating with PrimeNet. Another user also started the TC and got the assignment register before I did (about 10 minutes after I started mine.)

Shouldn't starting a test immediately using Advanced>Test also trigger a check-in with PrimeNet?
