Reviewing my team-mates' stats I was puzzled to see that quite a few of them have positive credits for the last day or week but zero totals for the last month. I'm sure I don't need to labour the illogicality of this any further.

So what's it about then?

This is the page where I first noticed it.

There is also an example on the Boincstats Team Stats page:

What you find illogical, is very logical to others.

(BTW: thanks for using the search )

So, I can't switch to one view this week because someone thinks your way, then switch back next week because someone else thinks the other way, and the week after that, well: you get the picture.

Yes, I have mentioned this before and am not convinced by the reply.
How can it be that:
BOINC Combined - User Stats - Users 1-100 - Sorted on Accumulated credit last month - Total users 609576
..........
Pos 3 - Helli - Total Credit 2,626,078 - Credit Day 2,608,064 - Credit Week 39,463 - Credit month 2,608,064
..........

If it were an isolated example, one might think there was a glitch somewhere.
But there are numerous examples of this ilogical type of statement.

It seems to be a waste of time pointing this out if nothing is to be done.
But the only explanation I believe to be remotely likely is that the figures are not "last month" or "last week", but "preceding month" and "preceding week", which might explain how all new additions to the list stand out with zeros where one would otherwise expect the inclusion of, at the very least, the current day's totals in the "last week" and in the "last month".
