Frontier seems to have died

[exekewtable]

the server it was on was having issues. I killed it sorry as a troubleshooting measure.

No probs. I was just walking out the door as I noticed the message, so I reacted. The CPUs didn't seem busy after I restarted them. Hope all was fixed. If you keep having issues with the MC servers, bring it up in our Admin subforum and we can see what we can do.

And Frontier appears to be having dramas again. Its up, but I'm getting a java exception if I try to join.

Not sure what the issue is, but both servers were having it. I have restarted them so we will have to see what happens.

TOG Servers are fine, the issue is with Mojang authenticating our accounts.

Been happening most of the day.

Should be ok now.

Server seems to be sick - getting an error logging in and occasional communications error at the select screen.

[Sorontar]

I think it is your end. The machines are busy but you seem tio be the only one having trouble.

Hmm, getting a connection lost: failed to log in error with the error code 503 from session.minecraft.net, but logged in okay at the splash screen.

Very strange.

Edit: Looks like login servers are screwed again.

[Sorontar]

Hmm, I can't get in either. I get a javaexception error. I might have to see if it is a problem at Mojang's end.

Minecraft.net says "Site is currently experiencing severe intermittent performance issues. Counter-action is being called into service. " but none of the regular staff who work on it have said anything on twitter. I know Mollstam was fiddling with the Amazon servers etc a lot recently. Perhaps something isn't working.

According to the Mojang status page, the session servers are down:
