I just got around to resyncing my wallet from scratch a day or so ago, it hadn't been synced since my last staking which was 9/22/2015.

it synced up fine but has been sitting waiting to stake for over a day, I figure since it has been so long that it's weight should be high and should've found a block pretty quick? am I wrong? or is something funky going on?

I read some of the last page here, has the funkyness been figured out?
