SF Match glitch?

I heard from a resident that there might have been a glitch with the SF Match. Supposedly her program received their match list on Thursday but this was subsequently followed with an email saying that there was a glitch and to wait for the new list. Their final match results were sent later in the morning.

Has anyone else heard the same?

Just curious since I've never heard of things like this happening before.

As a Program Coordinator who was trying all day to log in and get our list... yes, it was exceptionally frustrating!! I didn't get formal confirmation of who we matched with until about 3pm, although some programs/Deans' Offices were getting through eventually, as one of our matchees contacted the coordinator of a TY program here to see if they could get an interview; that coordinator then contacted me to confirm we had matched with that person. Imagine how dumb I felt when I had to say, "We're not entirely sure yet....."

We received a survey from SFMatch on this year's application/match process. You can bet that they are receiving many complaints from the PC's and PD's.
