Anyone know if something funny is going on with proxies?

Noticed tonight that my connections are just failing if they couldn't connnect via NAT. Previously they would go to proxy. Any ideas or anyone notice teh same thing?

I am experiencing this too, I can't really get any games going now because there's almost always one person I cant directly connect to, so instead of proxying it now hangs whilst connecting, and eventually gives me the failed to connect to NAT message.

This has been happening a lot for me lately but certainly got dramatically worse last night - I could not get into one game online.

I'm having this same issue as well, as of a few minutes ago I could connect via (NAT) but not (proxy). Maybe the servers are down or some sort of maintainance?

Not working for me either. Game is basically unplayable again as I'm one of those people who simply can't connect to certain others. So frustrating that the proxies were finally up and I could usually play with my friends (provided people don't quit all the time as soon as they see the proxied ping) and then they just disappear :(

It appears that part of the proxy cluster lost its connection to the NAT server and was unable to reconnect as of 2am yesterday, but some of the proxy servers are still working. We're looking into it now. If you were able to connect fine previously but started getting NAT errors on join attempt as of yesterday, this is likely why.
