Failed: Unknown Reason SOLVED

I'VE FIGURED IT OUT (I think)!!!

Has anyone noticed how this problem occurs most often during the daytime and the afternoon? I stopped to consider this and then it occured to me; THOSE ARE THE BUSIEST TIMES OF DAY!

So my theory (and I have proved it several times) is that it is because multiple projects are trying to upload at once! The Scratch server probably isn't designed to do this, so it gives the "Failed: Unknown Reason" error message.

What does that have to do with it?

That can be one of the reasons.

What do you mean? Ohhhh . . . I always upload in the evening. But you don't have too. The point is, you just keep trying to upload your project, and before long it will succeed.

Its Four PM, and I've tried 10 times to upload this project.

Just need to know if four is considered evening or afternoon...

Since the problem that the owner of this topic has appears to be solved, I'm closing it. If anybody is still having trouble uploading projects, you can ask for help on this thread.
