    I started pos minning a few weeks ago and got 13 tickets. Now I am down to 10 and 3 of them are missed. At first I was getting a error, but I fixed that today. I checked after I fixed it and I still had 11 live and 2 missing. Now I missed another ticket and I have no idea why, and there are no errors in the consoles. Any idea what I could be doing wrong? I don't remember while setting it up to vote yes or no, was I supposed to do that somehow?

    I use dcrticketbuyer

    {
    "poolsize": 41509,
    "difficulty": 29.78820126,
    "allmempooltix": 0,
    "ownmempooltix": 0,
    "immature": 0,
    "live": 10,
    "proportionlive": 0.00024091160953046328,
    "voted": 0,
    "totalsubsidy": 0,
    "missed": 3,
    "proportionmissed": 1,
    "revoked": 0
    }

    Also my missed tickets have not been revoked yet, and I also ran the command dcrctl -u [username]-P [password] --wallet rebroadcastmissed and it is still not back.

    Update: Solved, I didn't know that you had to add --enablestakemining when starting wallet...because it doesn't write on docs.decred.org which I followed.(I opened a issue, so other people following it wont have the same mistake). I now revoked my missed tickets and I also have a ticket that has voted. My balance hasn't come back yet but a day hasn't passed yet so it is normal)

    Your dcrwallet should be online all the time and unlocked.
    But I suggest you better to use the stakepool.

    My wallet is running 24/7 on a azure server and is unlocked. I might try pool mining but if I do start pool mining and stop solo, I will miss all the tickets I had bought right? Also do you have any idea why my tickets still wont be revoked even after I ran the command dcrctl -u [username]-P [password] --wallet rebroadcastmissed?

    Is your wallet unlocked? And are you running it with --enable-stakemining? I don't know if you need to have stakemining enabled to revoke broadcastmissed, but you certainly need it on to vote!

    I don't think I was using --enable-stakemining! I hope thats the problem and that it will be fixed. So I should use: dcrwallet -u [wallet username]-p [wallet password] --dcrdusername=[Deamon Username] --dcrdpassword=[deamon password] --enable-stakemining? Is there are - between enable and stakemining?

    Update: The wallet wasn't starting when I did --enable-stakemining but --enablestakemining worked, now im going to see if it votes

    Update: Thanks allot! The rebrodcast missed made me get my 4 missed tickets into revoked. The balance is supposed to come back unlocked in 256 blocks right?

    Ah yes, I added an extra - sign by mistake! Glad that worked for you now, you need to leave it with --enablestakemining enabled and you'll vote when your tickets come up.

    One thing to remember is that ticket buying is also on by default, so you might want to make sure your ticketmaxprice is set to something low so you don't also buy tickets with your wallet? (Or is this disabled in the latest version?)

    Thanks for all the help, I set wallets max ticket price to something low(1). The dcrticketbuyer should still buy from the price I tell it to and not get affected by the wallet right?

    Also I now have 1 voted ticket :D

    Yes, the DCRTicketBuyer won't be affected by the price you set for auto-buy to DCRWallet.
