Server issue

I can download my PBEM games, watch my opponent's turns, but when I get to an Autosave or attempt to manually save my turns I am getting PBEM communication error message (error id 5), and it throws me back to the lobby.

The servers have been down, so that is likely the cause, and I'd recommend trying again to see if the issue has gone away.

Server is down again.

Thus time getting error 8 and it says my username & password don't match.

It just spins and spins for me trying to get into PBEM. I would say the server is still down.

PBEM still broken (3 days with one 2 hour window when it worked). Store front when starting any SC game broken too. Also playing a Slitherine game FoW-Empires in SP. Its store front on the splash screen broken too. Forums on both sites mostly open, but going to different sub forums or even threads is hit or miss. This is a pretty serious DOS type attack I would say.

So able to get in game. Then then autosave comes on and gives me "server error" or "server communication error" and bounces me out. Able to load PBEM game back and then before I started redoing my turn, I figured I would save it, and same thing happened. Basically, unplayable at this point.

:(
