Q&A and Troubleshooting Guide
Quote
Q: When will the hard fork kick in?
A: The hard fork is scheduled to occur at block #227,000. With the swing in network hashrate, it is difficult to accurately estimate the time and date of when this will happen, but we approximate that it could occur as soon as the middle of next week (Wednesday, February 19th).

Quote
Q: Why at block #227,000 and not sooner?
A: We wanted to give operators of exchanges, gaming platforms, pools and site admins advanced notice and enough time to schedule in the upgrade in order to avoid potential issues that could cause forks in the CasinoCoin block chain if the upgrade were not to be performed in time.

Quote
Q: Do I need to re-download the entire block chain after the upgrade?
A: No. On the initial launch of the upgraded CasinoCoin client, it will re-index your existing local block chain. This process could take ~30 minutes to complete. Closing out this process before completion could potentially corrupt the local block chain, forcing you to have to re-download the full block chain on restart. Please be patient during this process.

Quote
Q: Do I need to backup my CasinoCoin wallet prior to upgrading?
A: Although not necessary, it is highly recommended that you do as a safety precaution and general good practice. Most preferably, to a location outside of your existing CasinoCoin data directory.

If you run a CasinoCoin wallet please update your version,
and any Exchanges, Pools, Games, Explorers should update their wallet to not affect the fork!

Please let all pools you mine on or know of to update ASAP!
Thanks everyone,
CasinoCoin

Cryptsy has updated their client your coins are safe!

There is still a number of persons, pools, or simply clients that are not up to the new version.


Please update immediately!

Bump!

Also wanted to say thanks that you didn't rush this, some cryptos have really rushed these forks, which have lead to bad time for pools and miners on those pools! This was very very nicely done!

Almost there 1000blocks until everything is set into place. Still some clients that need updating, but we should be a OK!
Everything is coordinating very well and hash.so is one of the most powerful pools so congrats!
Cheers

Less than 750 blocks remain! We should get down to 200 blocks within the next hour, then to 0 in under 24 hours or quicker depending on the hashrate.

Please upgrade your CasinoCoin client to v1.1.0.0 if you haven't already!

2 Blocks; PLEASE Update your clients to the new version if you are going to use CasinoCoin!
Mining will become stable after this, no more massive long swings in difficulty.

Is there any interest in creating an exchange to allow conversion directly from USD( or EUR, GBP) into casinocoin and vice-versa?

This seems like a necessity for getting casinos to actually adopt this coin. It just seems like making a few gambling sites that use this coin without a direct currency conversion is akin to jerking off with a hand covered in sand.
