Minecraft session server down

  1. Anyone else noticed that the minecraft sessions server is down? When I logged in to a server it gave me a HTTP 503 error and gave me my username followed by a session key. then i checked http://xpaw.ru/mcstatus/ and it was down. anyone know why and/or when they might be back up?

  3. This has been happening to me, too.

    Sometimes, when I'm joining an EMC server, it takes several minutes to log in, and says "Takes too long to log in".
  4. yeah. it says login: quite slow and session: timed out

  14. wow, you are right. this is bad for Mojang :/
  15. 83.61% uptime. You would think that the creators of a game with over 10 million accounts purchased would get some of the best connections/servers that they could -_-
  16. lol. maybe they're upgrading their servers
