Lol. No wonder. It said there was a server crash. I thought it was my router because it crashed, then I couldn't get onto the Scratch website.

Mine said, " This session has timed out. The server at scratch.mit.edu. is taking too long to respond." ... or something like that.

Re: Downtime of the website

Mine was in the night and 10 days later than you said. It had a "can download scratch" and the cat said it was down for maintainence.

Re: Downtime of the website

Mine looked like this: Beneath the logout screen there was a bar where messages usually are. On the bar it said something like, "Memebers cannot login do to technical difficulties. :-(   Sorry!"

Re: Downtime of the website

Is the message posted later (1h atleast) then the problem? I tried to login (I saw the last forum messages where from 3pm and it was around 4pm in boston), I was redirected to my "my stuff" page (so it recognizes my login) but was not logged in - and i did not saw any message.
