Thanks! Only this first column is (Status darkcoin.io) is still status: "unlisted" for me at this moment :-( all other columns are active. Hope nothing is wrong?
Is there anything I can do about this? Thanks in advance

After shut down the cold wallet and start again a masternode list does not list my ip (of hot wallet anymore). In my debug.log of my hot wallet the message appeared that it was safe to shut down the cold wallet. My hot and cold wallet share the same wallet (one on my local pc, one at Digital Ocean vps). Is that the cause of my problem?

It seems darkcoin.io is a bit laggy - i don't think you have a problem, just give it some time. As long as your IP is listed in the majority of miners/pools clients, your node will get votes and payments.

How up to date is the masternode list in the console of the client(command "masternode list" in console) ? Is there also a lag. Because at that list my ip address is not listed anymore (after a restart of my cold wallet)

When I do a restart of my masternode the following error appear in my debug.log:
ResendWalletTransactions()
2014-06-20 11:08:30 Got bad masternode address signature
????

If appeared ip is yours, Stop both darkcoind.
Not yours ? No problem.
If appeared ip is yours,
Read this https://www.darkcointalk.org/threads/help-test-rc2-forking-issues.1009/page-44#post-8910
* Moving 1k tDRK to New address and changing masternodeprivkey solves the problem.
And ip of NM is possibly banned by others. So changing of ip of NM is needed.

Since RC3 is delayed and we'll have more time to check things, please perform some examination and hardening on time-related attack vectors. As far as I'm aware this area could use some checking and could also present a problem if such vectors are found.
You* might want to try hacked clients with malicious mods to any time-related / time-dependent function that could bring up anomalies and then harden the code for time-related attack vectors. All time-related or sequential functions that build on prior events should be potential candidates. A flow chart might be needed to highlight possible logic vectors on paper. The code can also be reviewed to check for specific lines.
* I'm not active on testing testnet, so I can't do it - someone else has to check it.

adding some hashrate: 8Mh soloWill prepare a new testnet masternode. Are we going to start a new thread for "RC3 forking issues" ?
I started my testnet MN . this is the current list:
I've still got a testnet masternode going, but it's on 10.10.1. I guess I'll update it? Or? Actually, shouldn't Evan start another thread for RC3.1?
Started 3 MN 10.10.2 on testnet yesterday. One of them gets double the payments as each of the others. All of them are just 1k MN and were online all the time. May we have an issue here or is this just (good and bad) luck?
"92.222.10.179:19999" - normal, location: France
"92.222.19.36:19999" - normal, location: France
"198.50.148.87:19999" - x2, location: Canada
Please don't tell me the location would have an impact on payments.

Very sorry - I think i have mixed up some internal transactions to the same wallet. Still have to learn much more to read the blockchain. :sad:

Having recovered partially from my confusion - sorry again - I still have this question, hopefully doing it right this time.
If you look at account mtLYCQ6it9eDjqGurjqBmtFSzebK8ttyaL, you find 55 MN payments for about 1 day. For the same day, you find just 25 MN payments for account mnX22j3tEyovhif1GeecQ8YCAYzWHuXEv3. Both masternodes started yesterday, one at about 11:30 and the other about 12:00 GMT and still running since. (Just ignore the internal transactions, this just started me to wonder.)
Is this variance to be expected, is the time intervall not sufficient, or would one see this as suspicious?
Hope my questions don't bother anyone, otherwise simply ignore me.

That happened to me too, one node got double of the other within a 24h period. I also experienced 44h without first payout on another node, and a 30 minutes (first payout) from another. Testnet is very small in comparison, so variance is a simple plausible answer.
Awaiting orders from Captain Eddufield. Will bring 15mh/s to testnet too. Just need to know where to point to!

For me its normal variance - have a look at http://tdrk.poolhash.org/blocks/masterpay.txt to get a impression how the payouts are distributed.

1 -Lets say there were 576 blocks paid in the last 24 hours, and 15 active masternodes, then the expected median for one node is 38.4 payouts - which matches the average payouts for your two nodes quite nicely: (55 + 25) / 2 = 40
So yes: It's variance and the timeframe of 1 day is to small to judge wether there is a significant deviation. The distribution algorithm is using (random) tx hashes for each node, to spoof it you will have to find a way to manipulate the tx-hashes .

Ok, so let's watch it for some weeks. My testnet nodes will run til next mainnet fork.
I could bring my 12mh/s to testnet, but we need lots and lots more.
We need both lots of hash power and LOTS of clients, p2pool, NOMP, MPOS, and of course... MN's. I will await for instructions and not touch my nodes. I may embark in trying to make a p2pool during this RC3.1.
I hope Evan took the weekend of with family & friends to chill and relax his brain. Today is the only day I am "against" Evan.
World Cup game, Portugal vs USA !!
