Hey

Dunno if others have reported/seen it - just logged in to a typhoon of seemingly wrong pr changes -> a heap of sites went up to PR4 (without any noticable change when checking on a variety linkcheckers) and another load when from whatever they were to PR0 - again without it seemingly being correct

Couple of examples:
http://www.painjunkies.com/: PR changed from 2 to 4.
http://www.bdsmbunker.com/: PR changed from 2 to 4.
http://www.shadowslaves.com/: PR changed from 2 to 0.
http://www.femalepain.com/: PR changed from 2 to 0.

They all show the old values for me.

Yep, not quite sure what happened here, I also have 4 domains that are set to new values (that haven't changed).

When I add a new domain it catches proper value, when I try to 'update' a domain from my admin it pulls bum values.

Will get Drocd to check this out this week, I shut off the rolling PR update temporarily until it's figured out.

Yes, my PR3 site is listed as PR0, and I posted a topic about it with no response from any site admins. I would like something to be done about this as I am trying to get some of my link trades back after a few months hiatus. Is anybody out there?

I keep getting notices saying my PR 1 is now a PR 0... Then I check and it is still a 1...

Yep we are running it through at about 15-16k domains a day right now and I've found 4-5 out of them so far that are wrong. What's interesting is they also show wrong in other pr checkers, so I'm still unclear what is going on.

As soon as this major cycle through 50k+ pages is done, I'll be asking (via alert and forum post) to list out invalid PR values.

Something changed with google and toolbar queries, the difficulties started with our API provider who lost privilege (got banned) at google for too many queries I suspect. We've come up with an adequate solution but it appears that it also is getting a very small percentage of errors.

I'm on this like I hawk right now, have been for a dozen or so hours today :).
