I'll try the recommendation. Yes Windows 7 Pro 32bit.

Another customer already reported about this strange issue. We reviewed the code, but did not found any problem source.
We asked him to provide copy of glitched blockchain, but he answered: "I rebooted computed, and problem is gone",
and did not provide blockchain. He has Windows OS, wallet 0.3.7.
Currently we assume, there is some glitch over network, when some orphan block considered as "high level".
But, we unable to get more details.
What we recommend:
1. run repairwallet command in the your wallet.
2. reboot machine.
3. If problem still persist - please create archive, contains blockchain copy (without wallet.dat), and deposit to any file exchange service. Thereafter, notify [email protected]. We'll get archive, and try investigate the issue.

FYI: Having exact same problem with 0.3.7 Repair does not seem to correct it. When I have some time, I'll get the files to you...
Please help.
I kept my wallet running for 4 continuous days and it hasn't synched yet.
Back up your wallet.dat. uninstall the wallet via control panel. Delete anything that says emercoin from both the "Program Files" and "appdata" directories. Reboot, do a clean install of the wallet, put your wallet file back in place and see if that works. I'm assuming you are running Windows here.

Where I see a PoS Minting calculator?
You can find a minting calculator on https://emercoin.mintr.org too.
Just provide the address which holds your coins e.g. https://emercoin.mintr.org/address/EZRcD6ZfGJLaYSkKwZYRkrhVGxk1mimG93 and click on the small leaf icon on the top (there will be four buttons next to the address, it's the third one
).You will then receive a list of all coins of this address and the minting chance within the next 24h, including the possible reward.
Please be aware: The calculation might take some time if the address holds lots of coins ("gold sand"). Max. execution time of the script is 60 seconds.
If you find this useful.
I'll be happy about all donations: EZRcD6ZfGJLaYSkKwZYRkrhVGxk1mimG93

You can pos mining using ur own wallet
Follow those steps ( i am on windows):
1. Password protect ur wallaet
2. On the bottom right, press the lock icon.
3. Select unlock for block mining only.
And that's it.

Please visit https://emercoin.mintr.org/
Including blokchain explore, TX, Address, NVS and online wallet.
https://emcblock.info also use the same data, but there is no SSL and SSL will be Okey soon.
You can register / Edit / Delete your own Name->Value Key Pair (NVS) in your online wallet.
so PoS [minting] only possible on this 3rd party wallet? Cannot mint on my own wallet ?

pool.emercoin.com is down and they have my coins
Pool looks fine to me, it hasn't disconnected once today.

Is there any sort of formula to calculate the approximate time to mint a PoS block? Feeling like I have no luck over here 
Yeah I downloaded the wallet and got a small pile of coins but can't tell if i am even staking.Coin maturity is 30 days. i.e. coins must sit untouched at the EMC address for 30 days before being eligible for staking. If they have then the coins should attempt to stake (so long as the wallet is unlocked and you have not set a "reservebalance" in the .config)
Oh I know that, coin maturity or staking is not the problem here. It looks like I've been staking, perhaps I'm just luckless so far
same here, unlucky or something is wrong, im minting with coins from 2014, is the pos diff that high?
Block explorer shows the PoS diff at 34.25... Maybe whales are just killing us with their holdings.
Edit: just read your edit. I suppose that makes sense. Perhaps patience is key. I was thinking I'd see at least some sort of small block to this point though.

edit: i tried calculating with http://poscalculator.peercointalk.org/ (@craslovell maybe this is something you were looking for?)
and entering emercoins diff (34.2) , it says i should have 14.660504% chance to mint a block in 24 hrs and 99.266074% in 30 days, so maybe i have to be more patient

Some coins do show an indicator when the wallet is attempting to stake. I guess this is a potential addition that could be made. But also undesirable - because it incentivizes people to shut down their node unless they are staking at that very moment. In the long term, it's best to leave the wallet running 24/7. As long as the coins were sitting in the address for > 30 days, you will be staking.

Another idea: Maybe the dev team could set up (or give their blessing for) a fund for sponsoring code contributions which align with their roadmap. I am sure many in the emc community would be glad to contribute to such a fund but I think it is up to the devs to set it up, or to let us know if they are open to the community doing so.
Maybe it's as simple as setting up a website where people can propose new features and fund them, and developers can take on tasks, to earn the donated funds if their code change is accepted - something like https://tip4commit.com/ and http://peer4commit.com/ ?
Perhaps KarmaShark or Fixx may know the team's thoughts on how and if they want to encourage code contributors in future?
This is being discussed internally. We will have some feedback on this soon.

Any chance there are plans to support batched RPC commands? Would love to run this coin on a uNOMP pool instance but currently this is a limitation.
I am keen on seeing the team give you an answer to this at least. Also I know they are extremely busy. So I'm wondering if you know what's involved in making the change to the code to support batched RPC? Or if someone else reading this is capable of making the appropriate pull request on github - it may expedite the addition of this or other features.
I will get with our dev team to see what is required to make this work. Thanks for the response.
