I would save your wallet.dat file elsewhere, such as a flashdrive, if you already have it there, make a new copy, just in case. Then go to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\GoldPieces and delete everything but the wallet.dat file. Then try opening it up again. It will have to download the blockchain again.

If that doesn't work. I suggest, uninstalling it. Then reinstalling it.

If you reinsintall, put the copy of your wallet.dat file back in the folder (while the wallet is closed), open it up, and let it sync up again.

Hope this helps.

good work on the pump and dump.

Thanks - think your nodes are all the same ones I had.

I dug through some of the earlier posts and found two more nodes.  Don't know definitely whether they're what did the trick, but it finally started staking once I'd added them - in case it's of any help to anyone here they are:

addnode=104.131.17.78
addnode=198.199.94.134

Currently 7 active connections.  Looking forward to having my GP back! 

1.25 Million coins
24 hour min to stake
Max.
Oldest block I have is 350 coins - 48 hours (Got lazy on combining blocks)
Blocks of 1,000 seem to stake much faster

Apologies to anyone that PMd me and I haven't replied yet. Unfortunately my real life has been very busy.

Currently the biggest GP supported game is MMO RPG Dragon Knights of Valeria at http://dknight.ml/

The game currently has over 1000 players!

I've been in touch with Inkha (the original GP developer) and together we should be making sure GP has a lot more games and projects soon.

I am also looking for someone to manage the official GP twitter account, please PM me if you are interested.

I am also looking for a community manager here on bitcointalk that can answer questions, and post updates about GP developments like new games etc.

I would also like to hear from anyone that would like to develop and online game or app that supports GP. Please PM me with your ideas. Bounties will be offered on completion of your work.

As GP had no premine, any bounties will be offered from my personal GP.

That sounds awesome. Is there a thread about it on bitcointalk? I would like to get both GP and HYPER added and will supply bounties and marketing.

EDIT: I think I have found the developer on bitcointalk and I have sent him a message.

Anyone interested in buying themselves a gameboy color with GP? I'm interested in buying and selling other consoles and games as well with GP

yeah more games that work with gp are in the plans for the future

Good to hear about the new games in the pipeline!

My own GP-sponsored game Captain Disaster in Death Has A Million Stomping Boots (not an online game using the currency - rather one sponsored with some GP given to help with production costs) is progressing nicely, albeit rather slower than we'd hoped due to real-life issues and lack of time for myself and my co-dev.  However we are getting ever closer to getting the thing finished and release - it's been a long journey and there is still some way to go, but the GP sponsorship definitely helped - I was able to exchange some to Amazon gift vouchers via BTC which one of my musicians accepted as part-payment!

I'm expecting a new test build this week and want to get a new screenshot pack uploaded soon (we've updated a lot of the original graphics), and then within a fairly short period of time I'd really like to get a decent trailer put together and sent to the adventure game sites.  Also our dev blog rather needs updating... too many things, too little time, but it's on my to-do list!  Unfortunately like most indie devs I simply don't have much time to devote to my gamedev, and my two young children seem intent on keeping things that way - but though progress is slow, it is happening.

Actually there's been a demo around for a long time - which can really be regarded as a "beta" I guess since one of the reasons development is taking so long (apart from a string of real-life issues with health, house moves, expanding families and secular work) is that we have been upgrading many elements that were initially put into the game as we go.  The old demo (winner of the Best Demo Award at the AGS Awards 2012) gives you a good taste of the game style, puzzle types and silly humour though.  You can download it HERE.
