a very interesting post to read, thanks for putting time, thought and energy into this.

well i do feel honoured because i put a lot of hard work in it achieving that top troll rank.
í also want to reassure everyone that i put up a special program that will help all us trolls
on how to effectively troll in a forum. Exspect results in a few months.

Looks like AW is trying to get higher on the Troll Brigade ranks, i think he is trying to become leader of the Troll Brigade.

eh, any particular reason i'm on the Troll Brigade ? leading it no less ?

edit : actually thats a question for Sapereaude

if GTO911 wants this thread deleted i'm pretty sure its a good thread to keep alive.

If you still have darkcoind running on server then stop it with darkcoind stop command (./darkcoind stop) and then follow the rest of the tutorial.
Its considered a protocol change if yr upgrading from darkcoind to dashd
This means starting from local wallet as well so make sure that both local and remote wallets are up to date.

edit : almost forgot .. also you need to make changes to foldername and the .conf file : https://dashtalk.org/threads/11-2-dash-release.4515/

see page 4785 for some tutorials on how to update

carefully read this thread .. https://dashtalk.org/threads/11-2-dash-release.4515/page-12#post-49724
i think its related to your problem.

edit : corrected link

well, the correct color of that dress could be important .. to someone ... somewhere .. in a galaxy far far away  

at times it sure feels like it, maybe not as exciting as the channel that lets you watch game of thrones but still ...

thats for future use .. right now you can vote for the color of a dress

•New masternode voting system for new Dash initiates, each masternode gets one vote. See the new commands “masternode list votes” and “masternode vote yea|nay”. First vote, what color is this dress : http://imgur.com/QjqfntR ? Blue and Black (yea) or White and Gold (nay)

dont you just love it when yr watching bitcoinwisdom and suddenly something like 10 upper lines just disappear

nice post .. found this videoclip in the comments : https://vimeo.com/123219861

As it so happens we just hit the MN payouts 42.5% per block a few days ago. The masternode network is in the middle of upgrading to the most recent
version so MN payments vary a bit right now between 1.97 DRK and 2.3 DRK per block and are paid out every 4 days i think to each masternode.

Once everyone updated their masternodes you should see something like 2400 or 2500 masternodes operational.

Below you will find a more up to date increase payment schedule (one of the dev team developers updated the dates
and added the blocks at which the % increase will happen)

to be honest for me its more an old windows habit, i'm rather used to winrar and the uploading goes fast in my case.

no problem, i edited my previous post a bit but i guess i did it too late. I updated yr quotation to reflect the change.
I always extract the Linux 64bit file through Winrar and use WINSCP to transfer it to the server.

looks like this is just a version change, no protocol change :

Steps for local wallet on windows :

delete peers.dat
replace dash-qt.exe with updated dash-qt.exe
download and extract Linux 64bit dashd file to desktop or specific folder for use with WINSCP

Steps for masternode in Linux with help of WINSCP :

Update without protocol change

./dashd stop
rm ./dashd and just dump new extracted dashd in there with help of WINSCP
chmod +x ./dashd
rm ~/.dash/peers.dat
./dashd
./dashd getinfo
./dashd masternode list | grep $IP

Update with protocol change

./dashd stop
rm ./dashd and just dump new extracted dashd in there with help of WINSCP
chmod +x ./dashd
rm ~/.dash/peers.dat
./dashd
start MN from cold wallet
./dashd getinfo
./dashd masternode list | grep $IP

Update with protocol change & command-option reindex

./dashd stop
rm ./dashd and just dump new extracted dashd in there with help of WINSCP
chmod +x ./dashd
rm ~/.dash/peers.dat
./dashd --reindex
start MN from cold wallet
./dashd getinfo
./dashd masternode list | grep $IP
