Hi, is the manual submissions page down?

I'm getting a 500 error. Thanks.

Fixed. Thanks!

Hello, I've noticed that there are a few exponents in the cofactor range incorrectly verified even though more factors were found
Some examples M12710077 M13221353 M14307757 M14478637 M14558867
My guess is that if a factor is found after a PRP test already started and then the PRP test is submitted there is no check to see if the number of factors match
The initial PRP test also stays verified even if another PRP test with more factors is submitted. Example M12735137

Finding a new factor does not invalidate any previous test that said the cofactor (or entire number) was composite.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding but shouldn't it be "Verified (Factored)" at this stage then a new assignment be available for people to perform (Example of what I mean M7142851)? Currently if I try to register M12710077 (or any of the other exponents above) from the manual assignment page for example I get:

Error code: 40
Error text: No assignment available meeting CPU, program code and work preference requirements, cpu_id: 2215551, cpu # = 0, user_id = 233277

So currently the server doesn't think another PRP test should be performed(not by me at least) even tough not all factors were included in the previous test
Your replay has led me to believe I'm missing something obvious though? Please correct me if I'm wrong
