hm, looks curious for me
part of the result-file of that computer:

[Tue Aug 24 01:50:43 2010]
UID: Wurtinger/WUR_E6600, M2399 completed 4000 ECM curves, B1=44000000, B2=4400000000, Wd1: 08F30F19, AID: 99A622D625D755F9071CF60B349463B3

UID: Wurtinger/WUR_E6600, M2411 completed 4100 ECM curves, B1=44000000, B2=4400000000, Wd1: 08FF0F25, AID: C014E1C1EC86649B2EE40761F18F2C46
[Sat Nov 13 06:02:11 2010]
ECM found a factor in curve #1944, stage #1
Sigma=6035863152691405, B1=110000000, B2=11000000000.
UID: Wurtinger/WUR_E6600, M2399 has a factor: 174050713908151885290217482291235845448134953, AID: A08640662BEE2BB1E821530CC62E1E48


in August I finished 4000/4100 curves with B1=44e6 for this exponents.
Then I assigned 3000 curves for both exponents with B1=110e6.
2 weeks ago I found the factor (stage 1... ) above and reportet it.

If I remember right, I first assigned 1000 curves with B1=110e6 for the exponents and raised the assignment to 3000 curves some days later.

means, as far as I can see atm, Curve 323 (stage 1) after already finished 1944 curves (the factor I found reset the number of curves)

but why they are counted as 'of 100' I don't know...

Well this seems to answer a questions I've been thinking about for a while: After an ECM assignment is give the ID (long Hex string) can I change the number of curves without the server crying foul.

From your comments here it appears I can change it just fine???

Yes, I've done this myself successfully before. You can up (or down, presumably as long as you don't go below the amount that you've already completed) the number of curves without invalidating the AID string.

Yes, as mdettweiler said, it is possible. I often do it to get the ETA's of 2 or more workers closer together.
