There may be a bug in the DNS lookup module in blink. I recall I've
seen a similar behavior with an account for a certain provider. Blink
would only occasionally register with that account, but will most of
the time just fail to do the DNS lookup in order to register. At the
same time, using dig in a console on the same nameservers that blink
was supposed to use for the lookup, I could get back the correct
answers every time without any error.
