I started this WU yesterday shortly before the server deadline [9 Apr 2018, 15:38:05 UTC]. I checked again on the server after the deadline and the other computer had still not reported a result so I decided to let it run.

This morning I check and find mine has reported in but is marked as Completed, too late to validate. I assume this is because the other computer has reported their result but it has a report date of 2 Apr 2018, 9:56:40 UTC, but that result from a week ago has appeared overnight !

How can this happen ?

Yes, thats odd and I dont know how this happened, if your result was reported before the deadline then it should be valid but you was one day too late.

Okay, no worries, lesson learnt, I will abort any tasks that won't complete before the deadline rather than let them run and waste resources.

What about this one http://srbase.my-firewall.org/sr5/workunit.php?wuid=309015299

It was completed and validated on 10 Apr 2018, 18:01:16 UTC, wouldn't that normally mean the one sent to my machine would be cancelled ?

No, the 2nd WU was sent out before the other reported it after deadline.
