Explain to me how to fix my old wallet as if Im 5.  Stuck syncing and Im assuming theres an issue as the fork word is being tossed around, but I need to know what a non technical person needs to do to get back on track

The old wallet wont work

I downloaded the first update after the edit and mine is synced up and on the same block as Supernova pool so I think that's right.

Wallet fell behind now and wont sync, cleared it all and re downloaded and its stuck....

Have you downloaded the latest wallet?

I think so used the one in the main post v 1.0 1.0 uploaded 2 hours ago (Windows wallet)

Ok, we very recently had a huge forking issue. Try clearing everything except seedcoin.conf (if you have it) and wallet.dat. If you want to be absolutely certain you end up on the right fork, *temporarily* put the following in your seedcoin.conf until you sync completely.

Code:
connect=185.45.192.191
connect=198.144.184.175
connect=199.127.226.221

It'll take some time, but once you're completely sync'd, please remove those lines so that you'll be able to connect to the rest of the network.


Cleared everything but the wallet dat for a third time not really sure I'm on the right fork as I cannot fully sync and can't get past block 3530 (of 3644 it says)

I have the same issue. My wallet is stuck at 3530. I saw it try to sync once since I first saw that but no blocks were updated. What do I need to do?

If you go into help > debug window and type

getblock 9275ea28b52bb9b2879b4b7f731405adca8573a04e628df3dc5621a95f5058d6

and don't get an error, you're on the right track.
