mylot paying

I am not sure of the way mylot rates our posts.sometimes we get more, sometimes less. Do you hav any idea about that? and how do you get the stars??

It's really strange to get one cent for 10 discussions but if these all were started topics than it's fairly possible. For in my fresher days I got just nothing for many many posts. But those were old days and now it doesn't happen to me. Now what I know is that mylot pays me for the day before yesterday and by then I have forgotten just how much posts had I done that day. And that suits me, don't you think? ;)
