    Nope. I don't even think Mojang knows this is going on seeing that their support twitter page hasn't said anything about it.

    Why would Mojang be involved? It said it's down for maintenance, which either means that Shotbow staff took it down to work on it or the server hosts are working on their system. I don't think Mojang is actually involved with either of those.

    EDIT: I read into the Mojang server thing. I understand now what is going on for all the servers.

    What is going on: Its not shotbow, a team of hackers named HOICSquad Ddosed minecraft auth servers (Owned by Mojang), which is why so many networks have about 30 people on them, even the biggest network has less than 30 players.

    How to fix it: One way to bypass auth servers is for someone who has access to server.properties to set online-mode to false.
    However doing so will allow players with cracked minecraft to join so it would be wise for staff to somehow get passwords of players from the forms and install them to a password plugin so people could not name themselves as someone else and have access to all that player's commands/payments.

    Although, it might not be worth it now since I heard of someone in HOIC saying that auth servers will be back up about 4 hours from now, but I mean come on if they hacked Mojangs auth servers I would not trust them. I'd say the members in HOIC are likely to go to court and/or prison for this event.

    Both their twitter accounts, their facebook account and reddit account, I do believe, were terminated and they're probably in the back of a van being driven to Alcatraz as we speak :D
