I have been using 4747 consistently with no issue as long as I have known about Cockatrice, both on the woogerworks server and on the previous server. 4747 will work. 4747 is a port that is used by many applications though....you may have an internal issue of some sort with your system. Check your firewall and such if it comes down to you needed to. 4747 and 443 are the ports listed on the official woogerworks page, as I linked above. I do not recall 4748 ever having been in use by any relevant Cockatrice server.
Trying to register, I went Cockatrice>Register to server> host: cockatrice.woogerworks.com port 4748 and it just says server timeout. Then it tries to connect to server and it says socket error: the remote host closed the connection. Are the servers down or am I doing it wrong?
Is memnarch or anyone still around that can help? I just had to redownload Trice, due to having to reinstall Windows 10 today, but I'm having the same problem as smax. "The program can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." I've installed and reinstalled, and reinstalled again. Still getting this same message.
I have seen a severe lack of representation for my good friend Natural Order. Leopards need love too. I searched the forum and the last time my good leopard friend was mentioned in a thread was around 2013. Correct me if I am wrong. I have seen RUG Natural Order lists piloted to some success previously. In my version of the Natural Order deck I take the popular Delver of Secrets strategy and implement a strong Natural Order package without disturbing the overall synergy of existing BUG Delver lists.
Why you should play this deck:
You like BUG Delver already. You are a friend to leopards. You enjoy using strategies that are under the radar. You enjoy sneaking in big creatures like a surprise Progenitus. You like trying out new angles and spins on established decks.
Why you should not play this deck:
You have a seething hatred for leopards. You dislike Delver strategies. You do not like playing a creature that has protection from you.
I decided to use an average BUG Delver shell for this list. Some discard. Heavy control suite. Delver of Secrets
You know how it goes. Toss in a Tarmogoyf or 4 and a playset of one other value creature.
The value creature I chose is Deathrite Shaman and the Shaman sure brings a lot to the party. Deathrite Shaman is a proven powerhouse with its Grim Lavamaster like effect. What it really shines for in this list is the ability to be an efficient mana dork. With Shaman on board Natural Order can come down on turn 3.
The control suite is customizable. 4 Force of Will though is a Legacy staple. Make sure to have a Storm Crow with you at all times.
Progenitus is the Natural Order target and friend of Leopards everywhere.
A potential turn 3 Protection from Everything is just what we need to 2-shot our opponents and seal games.
Sideboard is very customizable.
I have tested this list out on Cockatrice a fair bit and have won several tournaments held on the platform with it while testing. I quite enjoy playing it and there is no feeling like casting Natural Order off of 3 mana and a Deathrite Shaman on turn 3 with a Force of Will in hand to back it all up. The deck plays like an average BUG Delver list overall and shares many of the same strengths and weaknesses of the deck and the sideboard was made with that in mind.
the proper port is either 4747 or 443 as can be seen on this page on the woogerwoprks site: http://www.woogerworks.com/offered-services.html
additionally there actually was server maintenance recently. I just checked and the server is definitely up at the time of this post.
If you are running Windows this is a common error that can be fixed by installing the latest C++ Redistributable package. Here is a link to the official Microsoft download: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145

Dryad Arbor, Tarmogoyf, and Deathrite Shaman are all green creatures that can be sacrificed for a Natural Order
The Arbor is a turn 1 Green Sun's Zenith target.
I use Ponder because it provides very good dig for that Natural Order
The control suite is customizable. 4 Force of Will though is a Legacy staple. Make sure to have a Storm Crow with you at all times.
