i wasn't seeing the results of the 2 dice games i played.  seemed like i was possibly forked or something.

i removed all files from .lottoshares on my debian VM, except the wallet.dat, and tried to re-download the blockchain.

now i can't connect to any peers. 

i've tried completely reinstalling the LTS wallet, and still no connections.  i've re-installed from source on github, as well as the pre-made .deb package.  no luck.

any ideas?   

i'd make a conf file with addnodes, if there were some listed somewhere.   

**edit**  still not able to connect.  when looking at the debug window in the QT, i can see the Network Connections changing from 0 to 1 and back, really quick.  just a flash of the 1, then back to 0.

here's what i get in the debug log.  i did edit out my external facing IP address, to myIP.  really don't want it advertised across the internet anymore than it already is.  if one of you devs needs that IP to see if it's been blacklisted or soemthign crazy, send me a PM.  keep in mind, wallet was connecting before i tried to resolve my Dice tx's not showing properly.

one thing i just thought is, these LTS are entirely from PTS ownership, and i guess not useable until Sept 14?  hope that didn't break my wallet.

Do i need to keep the p2p log files?  since 8/19, the AppData\Roaming\BitShares X\logs\p2p directory has grown to over 4GB.  is this normal? 

it won't break anything if i delete all but the currents day's logs, will it?

i may just test it, by copying the folder and deleting the original.
