This is my Yahoo test account, and it's still working for me as usual. It still lists the games on the sidebar when I go to https://games.yahoo.com as well as in the strategy section, and login works. Are other people trying to access it differently?

In any case, since Yahoo Games seems to be going away (frustrating that there is/was no warning or anything), we're working on a way to prompt users to enter an email so Yahoo-ers can reset their password and convert into a regular account.

Ok...after looking into it a bit, Yahoo just had some tech difficulties earlier today where the games page was down, but it's now back up. They're not going to just shut things down with no notice to anyone, and will give their third-party devs time to migrate accounts away from the Yahoo system. As far as I can tell the final sunset is at least couple of months down the road.

In any case, we're going to work on a page where Yahoo-linked accounts can choose a password and enter an email, converting their Yahoo account to a normal WG one. Then they will be able to log in via the normal login page. We'll try to get that up soon, since I know some Yahoo users are probably worried about losing their progress and would rather get it handled sooner than later.

Communication from Yahoo on the subject is understandably sparse at the moment, but we will let everyone know if we find out more from them in the future.
