Nice... I check for them first, but suppose I spoke up a BIT too quick:
-----
#!/bin/bash

sem="/home/pi/mystic/semaphore"
pid=$(ps aux | grep "./mis daemon" | grep -v grep | awk -F " " '{ print $2 }')

cd /home/pi/mystic/

if [ -f $sem/mis.bsy ]; then
  if [[ "$pid" -lt 1 ]]; then
    echo "Doesn't appear to be running although there's a semaphore file so we'll delete that now and run the server."
    rm $sem/*.bsy
    ./mis daemon
  else
    echo "Server already running."
  fi
else
  echo "Server not running, starting it now."
  ./mis daemon
fi

Cheers!!
