Anybody else not get their earnings updated this morning?

I started posting at 6am and posted up a storm. Now my earnings section says that my earnings were updated 17 minutes ago and they are the same as they were yesterday. I replied to some of my own discussions but, most of them were new discussions. What's up?

You might have posted them too late for todays earnings update. I'm sure they will show up tomorrow. They must have a cut off time for your earnings and I would think it is much before 6am. Probably around midnight, the night before. This has happened to me, as well, and then the next day I made a lot, because I did do posting the next day as well. There are a lot of members here, and they would have to have a cut off time to be able to adjust everyones earnings. It would take a few hours to do.

What I meant to say was I have been posting since 6am and when my earnings were updated at 9am, there was no increase. Maybe you are right and I will see them tomorrow morning. Thanks for your response.

It switches over to the next day's earnings at midnight on whatever time zone mylot is on... so if it was after that, you'll see them when it updates tomorrow. They have that cutoff so they can process things and update. So even though it updates later in the morning, it's really only for the day before.
I remember reading the explanation and even seeing what time zone they're in under "mylot" up there... let me go look and I'll make a comment.

This is from the earnings faq, under "Why didn't my earnings update?"
*myLot has a 24 hour earnings period from midnight to midnight in the United States Central Standard Time.
*So based on time zone differences your earnings may not update when you think they should and when you post it may be a day earlier or later.
*myLot tries to have earnings updated around the same time each day, however some days it may be earlier or later.
*If you are using myLot and you notice that the earnings have not updated, please be patient as we assure you they will be updated or myLot will send out an alert to update the community to the issue at hand.
*It is not necessary to post a discussion about your earnings not updating. If your earnings are not up to date, then nobody's earnings are up to date.
*If you think there is a real issue concerning your earnings that we have not noticed or it pertains only to you, please contact myLot if your earnings have not updated within a 48 hour period.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks for all of your help. If you find the time zone thing, let me know.

LOL, I've been sitting here doing about 40 replies and forgot to even look at my earnings. Oh, yes, I must have spent way too much time on here yesterday, too, because they are certainly updated. Did you look to see if any of your old discussions might have been deleted? That has happened to me a few times in the past. Not so much lately, though as I've a better idea of which discussions to avoid. lol, except when some of my friends post I reply even if it does appear that the discussion will get nuked.

That's because you are such a wonderful friend! I do the same. I could have replied to a couple of ones that got deleted. I think what happened was that Sunday was the first time that I didn't post at all. I post mostly in the morning from 6am to 9am. At 9am my earnings always go up. Because of this I thought that anything I posted up till that time was included in my earnings. Now I know that it isn't. It only counts up until midnight the day before. Lacanis helped me understand this :-)

I think that it sometimes takes longer for myLot to get all the post right. I have noticed that some times when I post a lot I get little earning but then the next day I will post little and get a lot. Then sometimes I keep getting more added threw out the day.

I've never had mine updated during the day. Just at 9am. Thank you for your response.
