Please post the debug.log file.

Hello, it did start for me this time. I simply deleted the old debug.log and tried again (not sure if that made a difference).

After starting the testnet i fire up the console and do a getconnectioncount which returns 12. I believe at this point my testnet node is accessible to other folks however my node is still 'unreachable' on https://bitnodes.earn.com/. I've never had issues seeing my main net node as reachable there.

Is my testnet node running correctly at this point?

Bitnodes only shows mainnet nodes. They don't list testnet nodes.

Yes.
