Connection problems possibly 1.3.2 related

Here here! It's considered rude to bump an old thread indeed. Except when the old thread is relevant. I would much rather see a bumped elderly thread than a half dozen new ones asking redundant questions. Kudos, msmit! But yes, anytime there is a gateway 502 error, the chances are significantly high that it's on Mojang's end. It's related to the authentication process, or the way that your account is kept secure (in simplified terms), and is handled through a database in their network. When those computers call in sick, all of us "One more block!" junkies who aren't already logged in somewhere have to wait for one of the employees to fix the problem. I know this has been explained before, I'm just posting it again for anyone who's been under a ro... I mean, busy.

" Kudos, msmit!" What does Kudos mean in?

geez guys again, failed to login, java error, and that stuff, i was going to play in my server and boom, the messages appear, if u go to minecraft.net it says it have some techical problmes or something like that, i hope it fixes soon D:

Umm, it basically means you get points for doing something good? But the points are all made up and don't really matter. (Pitiful cultural reference there, sorry). So in the end it's just a complex way of saying, "Hey, ya did good!"

I would totally just lose it, maybe punch my screen if this happen.
I'm happy I'm not playing minecraft at the moment.
