me too, I was thinking I can start staking the coins I got in the quiz. Btw. when does round 2 of the quiz start?

i've thought pos was already working with the quiz giveaway, silly me...

hahaha yea, I'm mining the empty blocks on a spare computer at work. Unfortunately that computer shut down.
I set 1 core on it at home just in case that happens again.
Network is running smoothly again. Empty blocks need to be mined until the giveaway when we can propogate the network via PoS.

PM sent, thx!

wallet got stuck on block 1161 about 12 hours ago...

I want to join in,
pmed, thanks for giveaway.

Glad to have you aboard 

I just noticed this and send my address. This is great!

I did say 'almost' accusatory
Without letting the cat out of the bag, we spoke about the "intended" changes, that is the 'retroactive' adjustments and application of new swap guidelines.
You also repeatedly posted about your issue 5 times.  
If there's an issue you can always contact me directly or check for me on IRC. making statements like:
doesn't help in the anti-FUD department and can easily be taken as accusatory  
I've been logged into the IRC for the past week in case anyone needs to reach me for various reasons. Many users have contacted me this way.

Got news on the swap guidelines, protocol changes and available services at launch. It just keeps piling up I don't know where to start  

I really don't see how you find that comment accusatory, and I don't remember a message from you about restarting the blockchain, but I'm happy to suppose I missed that part.

I'd appreciate it if you stopped assuming the worst about me though, I just switched back to see if the coins were still there, which without knowing that there was another blockchain reset coming up seems a reasonable course of action to me.

No apologies needed, and thanks for the explanation.

@TMX: I can't sync my v0.7.6.0 wallet (stable version). It has 3 connections, 999 blocks remaining, and stays there for over an hour already.

Don't worry, your coins are permanently recorded in the PMC blockchain, there is no danger of losing track of them.
I remember notifying you of the retroactive changes I intended to make, and you responding...

Sorry for not announcing those changes guys. I assumed the only ones downloading the beta wallet would be quiz contestants. It barely occured to me that some of the quiz contestants would be PMC swappers

Heres what I said on friday night (Blue'd the important part):


In hindsight I shouldn't have posted the beta wallets yet but the quiz contestants were getting antcy about not getting their coins. I also didn't want to send them coins just to have to resend them in the next day or two  

There has been some major changes. Bear with me until I can post an announcement.

This is correct.


the explorer hasn't updated yet  


Basically because I rolled back the transactions.


I find your tone almost accusatory but we've already spoken about this, several times.
It's important to delete the old blockchain so that you're not orphaned so to speak. As I've put security measures in place, if your client is broadcasting the old protocol it will be banned by the new protocol. In this regard it is posible to update the client version, but until you rebuild/rescan your blockchain you won't be able to play with the rest of us.

All (or most, I'm sorry if I missed anyone) of the PMC community have been notified of the intended changes to the swap guidelines some time ago.
Those transactions releasing 100% of swap funds have been rolled back. I already mentioned that I would be making these changes retroactively so that everyone would abide by the new guidelines. Switching back to the old wallet will not circumvent this  

I've been trying to take a moment to make a proper official announcement about it for over a day, but I'm getting distracted by a lot of other work. I also wanted to wait until I had the stable release to make it.

So my apologies if this comes as a surprise.  
Please note, your swap coins are supposed to disappear when you update.
We will be sending them out again over the next little while.
Your wallet might also show some empty transactions. If these bother you, you can rescan it to get rid of them.

Well I'm glad I took the time to look at that because I managed to fix a bunch of bugs that were bothering me for awhile!
Spent a lot more time on that than I should have though  

Transaction window fixed:


Coin control window fixed:


As well as a handful of other gfx bugs.

Updated OP with stable wallet,
New beta wallet with gfx fixes can be downloaded here
Will update OP with new stable wallet tomorrow.

edit: sonofabitch! transaction headers seem to bold as soon as transaction window becomes active. it never ends 

It's the difference in chain length that worries me most...or maybe there just isn't a node online on the new version yet that has the whole blockchain?

Also interested to hear why it's so important we delete the old blockchain, out of curiosity.

After 30 minutes and still zerobalance i switched back to the old wallet and got all my coins.

Those are exactly the sort of things I like to try and avoid 
That's why I'm waiting patiently for a stable version of the wallet  @quasimodo on a brighter note, your coins are probably fine, you'll just have to wait a bit.

Sorry to hear that, but glad it's not just me. Switched back to the old wallet now.

Same here.
NO COINS 

So how come the pre-last-beta-release chain has 42354 blocks, and the beta one has like 892 or some such number?
