I've noticed several points in time today when consecutive POS blocks led to the blocks getting stuck in some clients. I'm comparing with only blockexperts.com/slm.
79651 - 79653: POW -> POS -> POS: The time difference between these three blocks is almost an hour. It showed that I had 23 orphans.
POW (I mined 79651) -> POS (79652@03:52:35) -> POS(79653@04:41:10) -> POW (I mined 79654@04:41:49) -> POW (I mined at 03:52:52 -> forked) ... 22 POWs -> *Fork resolved back to the blockexpert's chain. ^
This happened another time: I noticed that blockexperts got stuck at a POS block, but it later resolved towards my chain. I can't remember the block numbers.
Same issue at POW@79776 -> POS -> POS -> POS -> POW (79780). -> POW (+4 minutes after POS) -> 10 POW orphans -> fork resolved ^
Appears to be happening right now @ 79793. As of now it's 20 minutes since the block expert's client accepted a block, while it appears my client has ignored the POS and is happily going down it's POW chain.
Anything to do with the client #? Blockexperts seem to be a bit behind (v0.3.2.0-alpha vs v0.3.2.0.2-g53d7c33-alpha).
In all these cases, my client rejected the POS despite it being obviously earlier. So I'm guessing the POW score somehow made my client think I'm the winner, and the POS time made the blockexperts think it's the winner?
My client abandoned the POW chain only after another POS block hit in - I'm guessing it is some block score threshold hysteresis?
Since I'm obviously not the only miner around, I assume all other miners also couldn't submit their blocks through?
[edit: 79794, a second POS, brought the network back in line. i don't think this should be the correct behaviour though?]

Still no mints. What is wrong with minting?
I'm on the dev's node.

Thank you for pointing this out. Could you send me your debug.log file in ~/.slimcoin. I would like to see what is causing those orphans after the PoS blocks.

When you want to sync, try -addnode=76.127.202.17 first and then if that does not connect, try -connect=76.127.202.17

Just had another thought if you want to control the balance of coins from burning vs coins from conventional mining- make the rewards for each based on the other- something like when there is a lot of conventional hashing power compared to the number of effective burnt coins the rewards for PoB blocks go up (and PoW block rewards go down), when there are a lot of effective burnt coins compared to the amount of hashing power, the reward for PoW blocks goes up (and PoB block rewards go down).
Then to fine tune as time goes by all you need to do is adjust the ratio in the formula.

You dont say .. It has forked only a dozen times. No block propagation issues either. I hear the PoW-PoB reward calculations are good to last a hundred years

What do I have to do to activate PoS besides unlocking the wallet with walletpassphrase <password> 999999999 ? I don't get any stake at all.. (OP doesn't state PoS specifications..) Mints also seem to be stuck again.

I am here . I still haven't gotten any mints since my last post. Suddenly I do get some minimal amounts of coins through PoS but it doesn't display a stake or anything. Just ultra tiny amounts coming in randomly. There are some helpful members who really try to help this coin but I'm slowly losing faith. By the current rate (without mints) I will never break even.

My wallet just started crashing regularly (runtime error). Is this on my end or something widespread?

No such thing as a free VPS unless you know someone.

Not free, but digitalocean has VPS for pretty cheap. You could get away with a $20/mo instance.
