"In an effort to better serve you, we are currently making enhancements to our site. We appreciate your patience during this time and encourage you to return shortly." This after I'd played two Flexicon puzzles and received error messages when the points were supposed to post. I went back to the main page to try another game and got the message. Either they're fixing the problem posted previously, or they're fixing it so we can't rack up so many points.

Not true actually. There is a maximum number of puzzles per game. They add more occasionally, but you can safely guess that the top score in the leaderboard for each category is close to the highest number available for that game. I think the total number of tickets is around 40k, so you can get ~20k miles.
I'm getting a communication error as well when I play the game even though I can sign in. I have never used a bot and only played Flexicon. However at times I might play 2 hours or so and many times had to enter special numbers and letters in a box before continuing. I'm not very fast so I didn't accumulate a lot of points but this is nonsense if they blocked my acct. I am legit!
I'm back in!
I didn't do anything just kept checking this thread. Tried to play today and worked great. Points are accumulating with flexicon. So those of you who kept getting the "communication error" try it now. I almost gave up on Microsoft and thought to myself it's "Google" all the way and I will never use Microsoft's search engine nor Yahoo it it comes to be. I think I had a change of heart!

Thanks to everyone for posting this - I'm back in too!
I gotta ask, how long did it take you to collect 12,900 tickets for those miles and which games?
I do Flexicon, but switch to others for a bit when I get bored. I have no idea how long, because it's usually in spurts or while I'm doing something else, and there was a period on inactivity while I waited to see if the miles would post. Flexicon usually only takes a few minutes, because there are so many repeat clues. I rarely have to look something up. One tip, though: make sure you have a moderately fast computer. My old 1.6GHz laptop's fan starts running hard when I'm playing. I checked, and the CPU usage goes up to near 100%, while objects are slow to appear on the screen. I'm guessing they have some time-wasting routines built in so that you don't go too fast.
