problems in Metamark

My metamark URL appears highjacked. This is the one I created:

http://xrl.us/BolivianCuppingNotes

As you can see, it is supposed to direct to the Cup of Excellence board. http://www.cupofexcellence.org/Countr...
Instead, it is now redirecting to some image I have never seen nor visited before.

What has happened?

DB

I just noticed this when adding a ghetto curl-based clipboard one-liner to a hotkey. If I accidentally shorten what's on my clipboard more than once, I get a new URL that redirects to the metamark URL. Do this more than once and you get a string of redirects. I know this is a case of user error, but doesn't it seem to make sense to either refuse to shorten a metamark url or to simply return the same url?

An example: http://xrl.us/or9bt

I am unable to shorten URLs through the web and my software, MoodBlast, is hanging when accessing the API. I've seen a couple of 500 pages, so I know something's up. Are these death throes are growing pains?

Steps to reproduce:
1. go to http://metamark.net/
2. enter URL from FTP sites, example ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/software/graphics/pngtoico/
3. click "shorten" button
4. URL shortened successfully as http://xrl.us/oo2wp
5. go to http://xrl.us/oo2wp

Expected result:
redirected to ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/software/graphics/pngtoico/

Actual result:
opened http://xrl.usftp//ftp.osuosl.org/pub/...

Okay, I'm picky but the server seems to be slowing under the load this evening. Several seconds to load a simple page. If ya want a recommendation on a server with tons of horsepower and bandwidth, I've got I know of one...
