Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [comment:1 dcf]:
 > I'm a little confused, though, because your client-side tor logs say
 they were getting to 85% bootstrapped before failing. It shouldn't be able
 to get that far if you were connecting to the wrong port. I would have
 expected it to stop at 5% or 10%.

 I'm 99% sure that it's because he connected to Tor without bridges first
 and had descriptors cached. Anyway, another reason why the immediate 0% ->
 85% is confusing, as stated by ux-team.
