Middle finger /salute to Uniuploader

So I decided to go on a census marathon again. I ran census for an hour or so, and uploaded with UU, than purged, and rinse repeat for about 5 hours. Well this is where UU screwed me over. I left it up thinking no big deal I could just upload every hour without having to load it each time. Later I looked at MY CHARACTER screen to see my submissions, and UU had automatically uploaded every half hour so it basically erased most of my work by overwriting files I had already purged. So I give UU the middle finger /salute today.

Bummer Eyeball! Gives me more of a chance to try to catch up now that my issues seem to be fixed.

Just kidding.

Well, on the plus side, here is how the 1 hour restriction works.

You upload a file, it sets that time. Now, any file that is uploaded within the next hour will overwrite that first file. The timer is not reset. So after that first hour has 'expired' then another upload will go in. At least that is how it should work. Does your upload list tell a different story?

Well the way it sounded,your still only going to get like 50% of the updates. Also is it because you had it on auto-upload?

No auto-upload checked so I am not sure why it uploaded.

Here is my updates for yesterday

2005-11-10 19:56:52 262 2139 update 5

2005-11-10 18:45:31 149 1102 update 4

2005-11-10 18:03:50 129 1146 update 3

2005-11-10 17:31:32 125 711 update 2

2005-11-10 16:02:02 906 5635 update 1

Update 1 is okay which I uploaded
I purge file
Update 2 I also uploaded which should be equal to Update 1 most likely
I purge file
Update 3 auto-uploads with UU and only gets 1/2 hour of census's since Update 2 gets overwritten by Update 3
Update 4 is uploaded by me, but it overwrites Update 3 because I didn't know it auto-uploaded, and it was not an hour before the last upload and I get about 42 mins worth of census's.
I purge file
Update 5 is okay which I uploaded after I saw what UU did.

So once again I feel the urge to give UU the /middle finger salute
