Anyone getting any repeat images?

  • JeanTate by JeanTate

    Although the classification phase of Quench is long past, and I don't think anyone was looking out for repeats (a.k.a. dups) at the time, on systematically going through ~1/6th of all the objects, I did come across this: super-zooite Ex103 explicitly recorded getting a dup! 😮

    (for those not in the know, the architecture of the current GZ-like Zooniverse projects - GZ, RGZ, SW, QP; AP? - is such that repeats/dups are impossible. Somehow the code for Star Date M83 was modified so that repeats were possible, and during the huge spike in SW classifications the relevant code was modified (to allow the server to keep up with demand), but neither explanation fits here.
