I spent all night on it and never got it to work. Pretty frustrating. :( I could never get it passed errors like this:

[electrum_abc.criptolayer.net] catching up from 478560
[electrum_abc.criptolayer.net] requesting chunk 237
[Blockchain] verify_chunk failed bits mismatch: 402736949 vs 402757890

Or if I'd start on a single server I'd end up getting stuck on block 478576 with errors like this:

Exception in thread Thread-3:

So far, it has defeated me, and I really hate being defeated.

I got a little help in IRC, but not enough to make it work. Maybe my comp has some funky python setup or something. I dunno. I'm done fighting with it.
