Woops! Sorry in case I just confused a lot of people. The number Felix reports: n_xtals = 0.078 means that the structure solution should have been "easy" (I.E. it could have been done with a crystal having only 8% of the volume used), and indeed it sounds like it was a slam dunk. So, it sounds like Felix got a good prediction from it.

However, I am still very interested if anyone can solve a structure from a case where my predictor says that you can't.

So far, every single one of these "reports" has come down to a misinterpretation of the web interface. I am trying to make it clearer, so I am interested in what values were entered into the various fields when someone gets a result that they think is not consistent with a real experiment that they did!

BTW, this is a JavaScript program, so it runs on your web browser, not my server. This means I am not spying on you, but it also means that there is no way for me to tell what people are typing into it.
