So I managed to get jetpack working way back by switching to twenty eleven temporarily and switching back only to have the problem re occur. (my theme is adapted from an HTML theme I purchased at Theme Forest)
I found out about the debugger and ran this code
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: text/xml' 'http://thegamechronicler.com/xmlrpc.php'
and got back the following
faultcode
-327000
faultsrting
parse error. not well formed
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodResponse>
<fault>

</member>
<member>
<name>faultString</name>
<value><string>parse error. not well formed</string></value>
</member>
</struct>
</value>
</fault>
I keep my admin panel in a sub domain (same folder different url) for the sake of SSL support and my theme is 90% javascript and additional short codes outside of the php loops formed around my HTML.
Any and All help is desperately desired
