A working wallet might be more important than contests lol

wallet works fine

not working at my end as well. a fresh windows 8 install and a fresh wallet installation. kept it open for almost 24hrs now. stuck at block 9026. sometimes it will display the "~NNN blocks remaining" at the bottom and then it'll disappear, which on normal wallets would mean it is synced but the "(out of sync)" message never goes away. then it repeats the cycle. so yeah, it's pretty much broken. do you have any steps to get this to sync properly? delete everything? probably not gonna work at my end because i started clean.

Have you tried close wallet, open wallet trick? ...

yeah, that's the first thing i did. that trick is probably way past its "use by date". i think the problem is more serious than what a close/reopen wallet and/or "delete everything" in blockchain directory trick can fix.
