Also note that the "master" branch is not intended to be stable.  Each release tree carries its own branch and tag.  I can't expect them to know which repo to use, but even the official repo had a branch ltcd-1.0.1 and tag litecoindark-1.0.1 that was newer than the rollback and did sync properly.  Maybe I should reconsider this policy due to the many who do not know how to checkout a branch...

Dude, with respect maybe you should reconsider this policy for those of us who do know how to check out a branch but expect master to be stable.

+1

hence master.

And with respect maybe you missed the part of litecoin's documentation where it states that they have the same policy.  This is fairly common practice throughout the software development industry.  Some people prefer to work in a "develop" branch instead.  We'll see, but if you want "stable" and "tested", always use a particular branch and/or tag.

guess I've been in a hole the past few years along with all my project partners.

I didn't say everyone does this.  But it is extremely common practice.  I meant no offense in any case.

Don't lecture me about software development. I was writing unix device drivers 35 years ago.
And here's a bit of advice, don't expect people to dig through your documentation to find out that you are using non-standard development methodology and that your master branch is a piece of crap.

You are a fucking idiot. First, for publishing a master commit that doesn't work. Second for trying to play in this game with 6 kids, several jobs, and no sleep for 36 hours.

I have no direct access to the primary github.  All I can do is send a pull request, which I may have neglected to do in my sleepless state.  I apologize for this, and am submitting the request now.  As for the OP, I do agree that the staging repo should be listed, but again, have not even had the chance to address this with Rob.

I know that you are working hard, but please coordinate the communication better for the sake of LTCD.

Also, did you coordinate with exchanges and confirmed that they updated their wallets to the new version? I assure you that they don't read this thread and won't know that there is a fork if the new version isn't even in the official repository.

I am just the coder.  I also have multiple real jobs and a life to live outside of crypto.  I don't get paid for what I do, nor do I have time to handle every request or issue personally or even in a timely fashion.  I am a 32 year old father of six who is badly in need of sleep.  This is why there are other team members.  We work great as a team, but our greatest weakness is in the fact that we live on different continents and timezones are way off.

Not trying to be defensive, just saying that if there are any shortcomings, please understand that I'm not the only person involved, even if I do tend to be the most vocal.  And I did speak with people from exchanges, but I was also busy with other major issues.  As it stands, I have yet to find time to assist best-pool with their issue.  I can assure you that I will, but there are only so many things one man can do at once.

And I'm not being offensive. I'm just trying to make sure that the two most important issues when preparing the fork have been addressed: 1) People knowing that they have to update and knowing how to do this; 2) Exchanges knowing that they have to update and knowing how to do this.

Thanks for all the great work. I just saw that the 1) wasn't addressed and wanted to point that out. You can't really execute a successful fork if people cannot upgrade their wallets.

Also, can someone remind what was the best pool issue? I might be able to help.

[TrollByFire]

It has something to do with MPOS not connecting to their compiled daemon.  I have not had a chance to speak with the best-pool team as I was predisposed earlier when the PM arrived.  If you are wiling to help as well, great, and thank you.

Thank you for your opinion.  

Get some sleep. Cuddle your kids, hug your wife. Come back in 12 hours.

There isn't a shitcoin made that is worth more than your family. Even this one.

Thats my opinion.

With that way of speaking is very diffecult to take you serious. And guessing from your age, you should have learned to speak polite...

Dear Xircom, at my age nothing pisses me off more than wasting my time building some shitcoin's master branch just to find out that nobody tested it and that it is a piece of crap.

And I don't really care if you take me seriously or not.

well why not help out then and stop coming down on people so hard just saying 

[motorhead89]

Hi all! What's crackin!

[motorhead89]

Everything works good here.... am I missing something? I just downloaded the wallet from page 1.... and installs and syncs fine. 
As far as I can tell this coin rocks! 

I am using Windows 8.1 x64 bit.

I see someone questioning the way stuff was coded?

I don't see a problem here.

Keep Calm and Drink On!

what block dose your wallet say lol

[s1gs3gv]

well why not help out then and stop coming down on people so hard just saying  

I did. I tested your master branch twice and told you it was broken. Rule 1 of software release management: make sure your master branch is stable and works. Develop in develop or feature branches, merge into a release candidate, test and merge into master.

Coming down on people so hard ? Hey, there are so many times I wish I had somebody older and more experienced when I was younger to tell me I was a fucking idiot for some of the things I did I can't count 'em on both hands and feet. That's tough love, not disrespect.

The guy needs to prioritize his family over litecoindark and I told 'em so.

Moving on now … good luck fellas.

[motorhead89]

my wallet says block 16274..... is that correct? the block explorer says the same too?

 do bad you cant stay ill miss you lol 

[Xircom]

Thats just the bottom.... im sorry for this Guys way of Words.

[Xircom]

Yes it is correct :-)

[motorhead89]

someone is spreading fud... my wallet and the block explorer match perfectly for block count.
 
16274 is what I have right now... I don't see any issues.

I just sent a 2 ltcd transaction to my wallet from bittrex...works fine.

here is the transaction id
c19e4955fa4d93668db74af577111ef42cacbe0bcf995f761d9d5da93d0cbd0e

don't see any issue if everything works for me...

Keep Calm, Drink On!
