I can't get a service made that runs

I can't see to create a service that runs because deluged.exe doesn't spit out anything when started.

I simply start a command prompt under admin, and do "sc create "Deluge Daemon" binpath="C:\Program Files (x86)\deluge\deluged.exe" Trying to start the service takes about a minute and errors out with error 1053. I saw elsewhere people had a "-L debug" to the end. I tried that, and starting the service just took a few seconds to error out.

This is under Windows 8.1.

You probably want to use the 'do not daemonize' switch.

No such luck.

You could try with deluged-debug.exe

No luck with that, either.

You sure you have enough rights to run any service?..

They are created under an "admin" commandline and my account is the admin.

You mean the integrated admin account or a custom user? If you're logged in as a custom user (which most likely) even if you choose "run as admin", if you CURRENT user does not have privileges to run services, he won't be able to run a service.

I can start and stop other services with my account. It doesn't change the fact that this service won't even start on boot when set to do start automatically.
