We are in a similar position but only on one language version of the site - all other language versions are still ranking very well in their respective Googles.

1script, at any point did you ever experience the site returning back with its normal rankings on any of the data centers?

We are occasionally seeing our old rankings return although when we see this, the result has no 'cached' link (even though the cache date is yesterday). This is concerning us as no cache link usually means you aren't indexed.

I believe this originally happened due to back link over optimisation which we have been correcting over the past 2 weeks. We're going to continue to dilute anchors for another couple of weeks and will report back if it reverses the penalty but has anyone been in a similar situation?
