Hey guys, we forked but only a few minutes ago so it shouldn't be a big problem. I'm rebuilding the wallets with a new checkpoint. The pools will upgrade and everything will be ok. You will probably have to clear your %appdata%/vericoin folder besides the wallet and conf but after that things should work.
The two Pools of Honor pools are down now and will be for a few hours. testbug is working on it. Your coins are safe, but there's no point if you mining to the wrong blockchain. When they are back up everything will be peachy. The vrc.pool.enterprises pool is up and running right now. That's the domain,
http://vrc.pool.enterprises so don't worry about not having a .com at the end.
We are now about 1/4 of the way through PoW. Let's keep full steam ahead. If you are not on a block after 5460, please update your client so you are on the right fork.
If you need help with your wallet, I, or someone else will help you on our IRC channel:
