Good luck with fixing it, if you haven't already!

Hi Scratchers,
As many of you may have noticed, we've been having trouble keeping Scratch running smoothly for the past day. Part of this is due to some updates to Scratch that were made on Wednesday night. In addition, on Thursday morning Scratch experienced a large growth in site traffic due to a number of articles linking to Scratch in the media. While all this attention is great (yay!) we haven't been able to deal with it as well as we would have liked (boo!). Here is what we are doing right now:

- We have put some small measures into place to help deal with the large influx of traffic
- We are working on resolving and rolling back some of the changes made on Wednesday night
- We are working on getting another server into production to help handle the additional load

We are very sorry for the trouble that this is causing for many of you and hope to have Scratch back up and running normally soon!

Scratch On (soon),

I had Scratch, but it went on, and off, and on, and off.

Oh.. so THAT explains the instability of the website. I was like, “WHAT IS HAPPENING?!” XDDD

Any idea of whether scratch is up and running? I am using it with my high school students and am wondering if I have to plan for something different tomorrow.

I found a glitch https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discuss/topic/152546/ can you look at it please?

Sort of, It keeps loading slow and saying “This page has a redirect loop” and lots of other errors.

Wow. Just wow.

say [Wow. Just wow.]

Sheep_tester

Chrome is telling me that there are too many redirects every time I visit a page and the messages don't go away even after I read them.

nerdyblades2

wait until <[I don't get that message again] = [true]>
