The other thing about this is that moving primorial and factorial to BOINC means new badges and people are going to commit serious computer resources to get those badges. We'll go through a lot of candidates pretty quickly.

How to merge 2 accounts with the same name?

I'm assuming you're trying to find your old account. In your My Account page, in the Community box on the upper right, the fifth item is Find Friends. Using that, there are four users named Ed Snell.
467167 Ed Snell University of Wisconsin
1540305 Ed Snell University of Wisconsin
1555417 Ed Snell
1555526 Ed Snell
The last two don't have any credits. The first is your old account, the fourth is the one you're using now. You might want to stop creating new accounts...

It was either sr1sieve or sr2sieve. I can't find the spiral notebooks I used at the time.

The WU currently has 10 tasks of which 2 (as mentioned) have led to a (maybe wrong) result. The maximum is 15 resp. 5.
Except that if it hits 15 it will be changed to some much higher number, I believe 99.

The certificate and user search are available from Your Account page. The user search is called "Find Friends" and is on the right side near the top. The certificate is just above the "other projects you particiate in" list.

Better yet, uncheck the Use CPU box near the top, otherwise 321 Sieve will be autoselected again.
