     All requests are returning data for me as of 9am PST. Reliability (and performance) seem much improved. Thanks!

    Hey Egg,


    Can you elaborate? are you still getting 404s??l

    A fixed rolled out lastnight, and we've seen nothing since then.  Please provide more details :)

    All I can say is through out the [UK] day occasionally some of my calls have been failing. I've trained my apps to retry a few times before they die quietly - well with a white app screen of death - so I can't tell how often its happening. Can't tell you what errors they are either as Flash can't process them.

    So probably not much help except it's failing more than it should but not enough to drive me mad. [Madder.]

    Just now tried to access "Triumph" (not my app) and as it was loading I got a series of errors from the open social container after a request to get the viewer. 

    myOsTrace is not defined
    myOsTrace("Ajax.readyStateChanged()")

    Not sure what he's doing to handle the error, but the app then displays

    API Name determination failed!

    Which is obviously in his code. I'll report em as I find em.

    The fetch requests are now working for us. We have been seeing 403's during peak periods.

    Can't tell what error Flash gets and didn't post before cause didn't know if it was just me and my code - but earlier....

    Whilst finding the errors/failures useful for testing error handling I'm still concerned about the numbers I'm seeing so I was very sad today and wrote a flash stats app for myself - my apps recalls a number of times (5) before failing... 

    Calling a random friend 100 times at 1 second intervals - 16 attempts had to retry so in the end for the original 100 calls 120 had to be made

    Calling a random friend 100 times at 10 second intervals - 27 attempts had to retry so in the end for the original 100 calls 136 had to be made

    Again with calling a random friend 100 times at 10 second intervals - 15 attempts had to retry so in the end for the original 100 calls 116 had to be made 

    Not good and not my only issue....
