People having "issues" with finding peers.

It's taking a while for wallets to find their first peers right now, mostly because the synced wallets are getting strained trying to upload the blockchain to so many users who are currently updating and bringing their wallets online.

The peers you might see connect and drop are the peers who aren't so strained, they arent strained because they are still using the out of date wallet and are therefore not connecting to anybody.

For now, anyone having issues finding peers just needs to be patient and the wallet will find peers and get synced soon.

To facilitate the process you should offer a zipped download of the blockchain for windows and linux.

Also, all those masternodes that are up to date now, shouldn't they all be syncing other clients now?
