This aint a question I can answer, I think you dont understand my problem yet. It's like asking me to reproduce a chinees sentence so that somebody can translate it for me. The way Overflow handles networks is like chinees to me :)
So I'll ask you again: spend 1 or 2 hours compiling Piper, and playing with it. Maybe you find that all is working fine (by all I mean creating->uploading->executing networks), but probably there're bug you can point me at. 

There's simply too much noise for me to get a clear picture of what's working right and what it not.

What type of nodes are allowed to be used as a 'start' of a network, which ones should be one the end, and what other 'rules' are there for a Overflow network?
