Canonical Result
From BOINCWiki
The simplest and best Result that is chosen from the set of Results that are part of the Quorum of Results and is saved as the example Result.
If there are still Results being processed, and the Deadline for those Results has not been passed the File Deletor can be used to remove the Result Data Files that may be present to free up disk space.
They only need one of the several Results as they are basically all the same, or they would not have verified. :)
So, once the Quorum of Results has formed, we only need one of the "n" Results to act as the "model" result. If the Quroum is formed and all of the results should have been returned, then all of the Result Data Files will be deleted after the Canonical result is assimilated. Then when you return your Result there is nothing to compare it to and your Result will fail validation.
