Hi Gregg - I was actually able to get this to work. My xml looks exactly like yours above, only I am stopping at scale 282:

I got this to work once but can't repeat it, run fails. I'm just trying to create a simple street overlay for our imagery reference basemap and can't.
After following all the guildelines for authoring a multi-scale map for authoring vector tiles, I still get really poor draws: Large areas of simple linework at medium scales like 1:72K, 1:36K will not render when panning and/or won't label when they do draw.
If anyone has any idea on what keeps large tiled areas from drawing I would appreciate any insight. But it may not matter until ESRI resolves this tiling scheme issue
