Connecting to the test network

Hello!
I was interested in the parameters your test network is using (especially when it comes to the Lambda values and the maxDelay).
However, I am not able to connect to your test network:

What I did is, starting the client and then click on the sybol to (I guess) connect to the network:

./katzen -d -s new_statefile Katzenpost is still pre-alpha. DO NOT DEPEND ON IT FOR STRONG SECURITY OR ANONYMITY. StageEvent StageRunning received 10:08:51.259 NOTI katzenpost/client: ๐Ÿ˜ผ Katzenpost is still pre-alpha. DO NOT DEPEND ON IT FOR STRONG SECURITY OR ANONYMITY. ๐Ÿ˜ผ 10:08:51.397 NOTI pki/voting/client/connector: got response from annares to GetConsensus(162600) (attempt 0, err=<nil>, res=Conflict)

I compiled it with docker and without on an current version of Ubuntu 23.04

I noticed that the requested Consensus changed, when I changed my local clock:

 DEPEND ON IT FOR STRONG SECURITY OR ANONYMITY.

09:10:09.290 NOTI pki/voting/client/connector: got response from beeblebrox to GetConsensus(162597) (attempt 0, err=<nil>, res=Conflict)

So maybe I need to adjust my clock to match your test net location?

Any help would be appreciated :)

Most likely this was a temporary problem with the network.

Please open another issue if the problem persists.

Note that Katzen and the test network are due to be upgraded soon.
