Yeah, I'm getting the same thing:

Connection Lost
response code:503 for URL:http://session.minecraft.net/game/joins ... =cutfishgo

Er that's what it says. I have no idea what it means, really. By the way I tried to connect to other servers to see if it was just MCJ, turns out that happens for every server. Perhaps they're updating minecraft.net or something. I guess just hang in there.

found what the error means: its a 503 error
____________________________________________________________
503 Service Unavailable
The server is currently unavailable (because it is overloaded or down for maintenance). Generally, this is a temporary state.

cant be down for maintenance because when in minecraft it says the server is up with nobody online

maybe it is overloaded cos jeb is doing something??? i really dont know

OK i have learnt more stuff!!!

this guy says "If you can connect to minecraft.net, then the server (minecraft login-authentification) is overloaded. Keep trying to login is all that we can say."

and something that may be irrelevant:

"they are running the login/authentification server off of a cloud server".

so either too many players are online or they need a better server
