(moderation:
Tried to search the website for this answer but get the error "Forbidden not allowed to access this resource" when attempting the search.
In the Home profile used by the one machine, chose CPU, NVidia, Test applications and Meerkat and run CPU versions for GPU if available. Using Windows 10 OS.
Do not see this app under Applications or server stats.
BTW, I uploaded an avatar for marmot but it's not showing. Incorrect size? Not approved?

Please don't use spaces in search string, replace with e.g. "+".
Maybe a moderator has to aprove, like the forum profile? I don't know.
[EDIT:] Yes, your profile page (with avatar) states: Profile awaits moderator approval.

That's for the education.
The avatar was uploaded years ago.
As for the original point of the post:
Looks like the GRAVITATIONAL WAVE SEARCH O2 TUNING Wu's were being reported on Free-DC but they are gone now. It was also reporting BitCoin Utopia WU's.
Something strange going on with Free-DC server.

The avatar for community posts is separate from the one used on your profile page.
Go to your account->prefs->community and look for the section where you upload an image for your message board posts. The two images don't need to be the same.
Cheers,

Thanks!
See the flower eating mountain gopher?
Although, I'm more of a honey badger than a marmot.

Sure do! You are now a creature of importance rather than a nondescript gray silhouette. :-)
With regard to your original question about "O2" variety of GW tasks, they finished quite a while ago and we are now using O3 (LIGO Observation Run 3) data which is stated to be of higher sensitivity. You should follow Tech news to see when old runs finish and new runs start. I believe there was a post from Bernd at one point to inform that current and future GW searches will require a GPU (no CPU only tasks).
The easiest way to see what is currently running is to check the server status page via the link at the bottom of any message board thread page you are reading. You will see O3AS as the only search with available tasks.
Cheers,
Gary.

some testing WU's from Einstein@home would not show on server status reports such as:
Gravitational Wave search O3AS Engineering
Gravitational Wave Injection run on LIGO O1 Open Data
Gravitational Wave Engineering run on LIGO O1 Open Data
When posing the original question, I assumed we maybe in a rerun, or test run, but it turns out that the Free-DC Newapps (https://stats.free-dc.org/newapps/WUProps-userID) script can briefly, under some circumstances, mistakenly get information about apps run in years past.
I am more ignorant about the research topics here than someone with a physics degree should be.
Skeptics Guide to the Universe did some coverage on the O3 detection. If real life allows me more time, I'll do some reading, and I'm about to say something uncomfortable: I never used my physics degree professionally because my country considered my non-conforming gender and sexuality a security risk in the 80's and 90's.
I never lost my curiosity or interest in science, and have tried to always run science calculations since SETI, but I try to not become too deeply involved with physics research topics as it saddens me.
