Comment (by rubiate): I set up two new relays: bug20499bad ED6E43F07ABE87C017BD80D4BA24E41F8FF32E94 bug20499revert 083971FD18EDBD442DF0971D0FDC6F500642AD91 'bad is running 0.2.9.4-alpha, and 'revert is identical except it has 09a0f2d0b24 reverted. Both have the same config, other than cosmetic differences (different names, ports, logfile). Rough timeline: 10:36 Both start up [...] both request the consensus every minute 10:41 they reach a fail count of 10 [...] both do nothing every minute, fail count is too high 11:36 'revert updates the microdesc consensus; valid-until 2016-11-01 14:00:00 11:36 'bad is still doing nothing, valid-until 2016-11-01 13:00:00 11:37 'revert tries to do it again, gets a 304, fail count is 2 11:38 'revert tries to do it again, gets a 304, fail count is 4 [...] and so on 11:41 'revert reaches a fail count of 10 again [...] both do nothing 12:36 'revert updates; valid-until 2016-11-01 15:00:00 12:36 'bad doesn't; valid-until 2016-11-01 13:00:00 12:41 'revert hits 10 fails again [...] doin' nothin' 13:00 'bad now has a microdesc consensus past its valid-until date [...] 13:36 'revert updates; valid-until 2016-11-01 16:00:00 13:36 'bad doesn't; valid-until 2016-11-01 13:00:00 [...] I suspect this pattern is going to hold.
