Re: [ANN] TopCoin, Unique coin with rapid Block Halving (2 Days)
If you took the one posted by someone on the first page for conf file asking for help, it did not work for me. This however worked:
listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=**user**
rpcpassword=**pass**
rpcallowip=10.1.1.*
rpcport=18382
rpcconnect=127.0.0.*
addnode=219.90.254.80
addnode=122.62.19.98
addnode=101.98.184.135
addnode=78.51.74.99
addnode=14.201.151.38
Also I had to delete the stuff from roaming folder after adding this. However judging from your post you might already have done this. I'm just wondering if you used this for the conf file.
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately didn't work either
I took a look at the debug.log (the actual text file, not what is displayed in the Help menu) and there are these failed connections:

As far as the 71 seconds to reconnect part goes, is there anything I could add to my config file to reduce the reconnect time from 70 seconds to like... 0.000001 seconds? Might be able to spam this bastard into submission
Another thought, could my IP have anything to do with it? BT is horrible with their IP allocation, and I have problems posting here, presumably because thousands of other people are sharing an IP address. It's also wrongfully blacklisted in some IRC chatrooms, because it shows up on the spamhaus.org database, even though they acknowledge it is a common BT IP, and the blacklist should only be used as a guide.
Is it possible the creator of TopCoin thought he was being clever implementing some sort of extra security feature, but instead ended up blocking a ton of BT users? It would be interesting to find the common denominator in those of us having problems, i.e. are we all BT customers?
Sorry, my theories are bordering on crazy now.
Re: [ANN] TopCoin, Unique coin with rapid Block Halving (2 Days)
The wallet will absolutely not sync for me! All I get is "Out of sync" appearing by the balance, and the little broken network icon in the status bar, bottom right. In the Debug Log, I get a ton of "socket select error 10022" messages and not a whole lot else.
I found a load of posts on here further back with people having problems but I couldn't find any solutions other than "have you tried turning it off and on again" type stuff.
I asked on Reddit and got more helpful responses but after: opening ports 18381-18382; adding a topcoin.conf with nodes; deleting the contents of the Topcoin Roaming folder; standing on my head and reciting the Moldovan pledge of Allegiance 3 times, I have come to the conclusion that nothing I do can fix this.
I've had several other wallets for about 7 or 8 other cryptos and had no problems whatsoever. Just seems to be this coin. At least I know I'm not alone.
In case it might help anybody help me, I'm using Windows 8, a BT Homehub router, wallet version 1.2, and the sample conf from the first page of this thread with the nodes listed there (also tried renaiming that to topcoin.conf.bak, in case it worked better without one).
The 2000 reward still stands, although I'll probably increase it, or give multiple 2k rewards away if more than one person leads to the solution.

Is nobody mining this coin? I have 100% hash rate share according to Bondni, and that's apparently across the whole network. As somebody with only 1 modest cpu and 1 gpu, this is a first for me...
Cheers.
I actually found the post:
I've mirrored the Windows wallet here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/catcoinwalletarchive/files/
Additionally, one can build a Windows wallet from source if they wish. My 'alpha' instructions are here in MS Word DOC format:
catcoin_wallet_build_windows.doc
Source is here:

I actually found the post:
The Windows client cannot be downloaded. Please fix the link.
Thanks for the heads-up. It looks like catcoin.pw is down.I've mirrored the Windows wallet here:

You need to download a more recent wallet, you are running the version from before the first fork. I believe someone posted a link to the current wallet a day or two ago on this thread.

Thanks! I better get started sifting through posts
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but is anyone else having problems sending coins, and synching with the network?
Even after deleting the stuff in the AppData folder (not the wallet.dat
) it syncs pretty quickly right the way up to 3 weeks then hangs indefinitely. the bar lines up almost exactly with the M in "Verify Message" on the receive tab.
I don't know if this has anything to do with the fork, or the fact that my wallet is outdated (v0.8.6.1?). The wallet downloads seem to be 404 right now, both the rar and the exe. Getting a little worried about my coins.
