Scaled to a large instance with more instance. Should be stable for now.

Still unavailable unfortunately!

hmm...I'm running out of ideas. Which country are you in?

Australia - you could contact Cloudflare and let them know - they can shuffle the CDN if there is a dodgy node.

If you log into your Cloudflare you can perform a full cache flush very easily on your domain.

Maybe it's not cache that caused the problem. We host our website on Google Appengine which is global balanced. Maybe some cloudflare nodes just pick the wrong entrance.

Reporting back in that it's all working now. I managed to sign up, request an invite and I also sign up to your digests to try that out as well. Everything was very quick. Thank you.

I guess this would be a good example of the "gratuitous negativity" that was on the frontpage the last few days?

While there seems to be something funny going on it is most likely something more than just adding an email address to a database.

When I was younger this was how I though. After maintaining and interfacing a few applications over the last few years I am a whole lot less annoying I hope.

I guessed they were planning to use the github integration for something. Then I might be wrong and it might just be "cool, new feature, must have" but whatever the reason was I didn't question anyones intellect over it.

Sorry about that. Could you drop us an email at [email protected] with your GitHub account? We could manually add you to the list. We're trying to debug the problem. But it's hard to reproduce it since it only affects few people.
