sorry for the noob question, but how do I connect to the testnet vs mainnet so I can test my masternode?
thx

It has come to our attention that there was a bug in the masternode voting system that possibly could cause errors. This was exposed on testnet and fixed. You are urged to update as soon as possible before the fork goes into effect on the 14th.

getblocktemplate stopped working on the testnet. I get this error message

Code:

error: {"code":-1,"message":"CreateNewBlock() : ConnectBlock failed"}

Any idea what's going on?

BTW, I'm working on masternode support for p2pool.

This is fixed, just download the new client or recompile

what changes are happening after the hard fork on 14th ?

Short-term:

Here's the new schedule for development:

- RC2 (masternode payments, DGW3) : May 14th
- RC3 (1000 DRK limit and denominated change) : May 21st
- After this, I'll find someone to vet the code and open source.
- RC4 (Bugs, security issues)
- Testing, then opensource

Unofficial view

Medium term - I guess we are going to have a lot of people testing out the payment protocol for all sorts of reasons - some might be legal, some might be questionably legal, some might just cross over the line.

Some of my views are given here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=579976.msg6335710#msg6335710

Long-term

Blue sky: third parties - anything from decentralised anonymous corporations stock exchange to decentralised dark markets.

Official developments? I think some of those are being kept secret for now by the development team.

Overall - what do you do when someone invents eCash?

I must have impeccable timing! I have been meaning to update my masternode to RC2 for a few days.  JUST did it, and it looks like I grabbed this version rather than the old.

dead cat or new rise?

Dead cat a week 2 weeks later? lol, no.

It seems chrome does not like much the executable from darkcoin.io? I had to download it switching off security.

It was more like 10 minutes.

It didn't even go below the initial rise! If that's what he means, he's doubly wrong.

Yes sorry I was referring to the drop from 0.0045 down to 0.0040 and then the starting rise after that.  Is that not referred to a dead cat bounce if it were to go back up then continue to fall again?

There was some panic after someone cancelled the ~20BTC @0.0045 buy order on MINTpal (the driving force behind the last rise) but the pice seemed to recover after someone placed ~40 BTC buy @0.0040

That 20 BTC on MINTpal fooled me too. I bought 1k on Cryptsy @0.0044, thinking it's unprobable to fall below 0.0045 soon but it might hit ~0.0049 today.

When trying to do a transfer with DarkSend I get the following error:

darkSend Satus => ERROR : masternode switched, please resubmit

After that I try it again and I get errors:

Couldn't find a confirmed unspend output equal to 10DRK. This shouldn't happen, please report to developers.

and

Error: Transaction creation failed!

Am I doing something wrong or is this is a bug?

Please PM eduffield.  In case it's a bug, he needs to know

This means the masternode switched while you were waiting for a match (it happens every 25 minutes on average). Currently the client isn't smart enough to retry, but I'll have this fixed in RC3, plus lots of more neat stuff that I'm keeping secret 

I had this error for 3 or 4 times. Retrying didn't help... I think something else was the problem. I just opened darkcoin-qt again and now I got a message to check my machines time. I installed Win8 on a Macbook with VMware Fusion and the time was somehow incorrect. Just tried it again and my DarkSend transaction is waiting for more entries... Awesome!
