Can anyone fill me in on the status of this coin? Dev gone / coin still alive, etc

If you have an older client...

Latest build: 1.2-beta3

win32 QT (this QT contains the error reporting correction)

Recommended Directions for upgrading:
-----===-----
Windows default directory: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Philosopherstone

(If from 1.2-beta1 and full chain, simply run the new 1.2-beta3 client, done!)

from old 1.2,1.1,  ole "el diablo 6084 de muerte", or 'el nino Coinupcabra 9346' (very very important to delete all the bad first)

1.Make sure client is not running. If you just closed it wait at 60 seconds for it to shutdown entirely.
2.Backup wallet.dat file (copy elsewhere) from your Philosopherstone directory, this file is the one that matters.
3.Delete all files/folders inside your Philosopherstone directory except wallet.dat and philosopherstone.conf, you can keep but better to delete peers.dat
4.Then run the new 1.2-beta3 client and keep an eye on the progress as it downloads the new chain.
5.If you see coins appear and reappear and other oddities, this can be normal, don't panic.
6.If the client hangs for a long time (more than 10-15 minutes or a typical computer) start over at #1
6.It's possible to gain or lose coins during this process. This is the healing process
7.Hopefully you have now joined the rest of the good and can again be a productive member of the network

For more info from link above

Right now, I would just like the 1.0 client nodes to upgrade

Anyone else into the open beta later tonight?

Lets make the CyrptoCoin linkshell on Leviathan! PM me details if you are interested

sounds like they may be from one of the many dead chains, but maybe not.  How did you get the coins? Solo-mine? Also what client where you on and which client are you on now?  If you are using beta3 (see link below) just go through that process to delete the current blockchain and then do a fresh download of the chain to see if anything changes.

Ya there is nodes on 1.0 still....

great I plan on slowing down releases from here on out, unless there is something unforeseen that needs a quick fix. I know downtime sucks

are you still having problems with the chain getting stuck?

that's a nice one.. fixed thanks

We need to just copy paste this everytime 

Ya I don't like either, will find a better distro point soon,, just had to get the files out there.

ya nodes are downloading blocks as time goes on too, some of the dead ends are mining on those broke chain too , I think anyway. They tend to live in clusters 

Its actually improved much since 1.2beta1

When I type it in a I see about 20-30% giving bad info typically they are kinda grouped on the same blocks

9346 is def people running the bugged 1.2 the well known 6084, etc

in field "startingheight"

there is so many on wrong chains... that is the big problem... not sure why,

yes good drown out all those bad nodes
