For the guys having issues with the qt client not showing the correct number of blocks. The client is showing the number of blocks left To Be Mined and not what's already been mined. This will NOT effect your mining, even if solo. My cgminer has been hashing away for day with the client showing "Out Of Sync" and I am still able to find blocks and see when a new block is found on the network through cgminer, which also reflects the number of blocks left to be mined in the qt client as the number drops every time a block is found.
Specs:
BlockTime: 60sec
Confirmations: 6
Difficulty: Retargets about 8 hours
Coins: 250,000,000
Reward: 100 coins per block, halved every 600,000 block
Premined first 2 blocks for bounties and giving back to miners.
Block 3-5000: 200 sxc/block
Block 5001+: 100 sxc/block
Lucky chance to have x3 or x50 sxc block.

You are correct that we are able to mine, and the debug window reports the correct height. Thanks for the heads up!
However, I'm not so sure about the number of blocks left. Multipool has dropped SXC because of 1)a fork 2)lack of miners ( they are reporting the last found block as 18011, and orphaned ). At this time, my client is showing 349,995 blocks remaining(out of sync). The current height is 16031. I've also noticed that many of the clients that report an incorrect block height are coming from port 9333. Yesterday I had attributed it to my litecoin and sexcoin client not playing nice. I'm not so sure now.
I've been watching the boards to see if any action is going to be required, but I've seen nothing about the issue.( Maybe I'm not looking in the right places )
All that being said, I'm still mining.
