Uploading torrents and adding pictures were failing for a few hours because of a technical problem on our side (nothing to do with your torrents or your accounts). It is sorted and everything is back to normal — new uploads are flowing again.

Sorry for the disruption, and thanks for the reports, they helped us pin it down fast.

The "uploaded" time should help you work out actual times in the time zone you happen to be in.

Is this to become a daily occurence?

it already did, it's been 4 days in a row, it always starts the same time of day and lasts about 8 hours, mind that when programming your uploading schedule

Obviously an appropriate person found has exactly the right sharp stick with which to poke the server.

Obviously not everyone can use this trick, or we'll all be sat there waiting while it works again but no-one has realised. But changing time zones will ensure someone comes fresh to the site and tries it without realising there is/was an issue.

This is the current error I get

"Non-JSON server error"

Server load errors tend to genuinely be "right now", and normally cure themselves after a few minutes. These seem to be lasting hours, not minutes.
