I just checked into myLot and found that one of my discussions was deleted, the one about 31 december having no credit it was expected so it was ok. When I checked my earning lo and behold, 31 December was now credited, BUT I didn't make it to the cut-off! I only got $9.99.
I checked my notifications and found out that one of my discussion was deleted the one about "How are you going to celebrate New Years" for supposed being a poll type question. Since when has asking "How" been a poll type question? So this one's under appeal I hope the admins read this and reinstate my discussion, it had several really good responses as well. I apologize here for those whose responses were deleted.
Well, if its not reinstated, I would just look at it as having double payment on the next month!

I hear many people, who make money online say "you cannot count the money until it is in your bank" and this is a perfect example of that. I hope you didn't depend on having that money by the 15th January. To avoid this happening again, you should try and earn a little over the payout threshold giving you a buffer in case Mylot delete your discussions or discussions that you have posted it.
However, well done on reaching payout with 420 posts :)

I tend to do my big push at the beginning of the month, then when live gets in the way later on in the month, I have done a lot of the work already and I do not get pressured to post like a crazy person on the 30th/31st. But that might just be me being a little backwards lol :p
Good luck with getting your double portion next payout.

Thanks!
Yeah I guess I should have been more active the last few days of the year, but my schedule didn't permit me somehow. I'll try to be better this month as well. Aiming for a double portion come February 15!

True better to start early, but I just go online to relieve stress and earn at the same time, unfortunately I do not have much time to spend online as most members have But I'll try doing a lot when I am on line, and Thanks for luck

I am sorry to hear that. You suppose to get your payout this month, isn't it? I just hope that mylot administrator will consider your appeal, and let you have that merely 1 cent pass. Good luck!

All is not lost!
At the bottom of your earnings page there is another line which states:
"All amounts are estimates and are subject to change until final payments are made."
MyLot make adjustments and who knows that your earnings might increase by those missing 5 cents before payday!
Oh but there is the possiibility that this will be deleted too because it is 'an individual issue'

I'm not betting on adjustment... I'll just take it as a delay But yeah, that would be great if adjustments get me to pay-out for december, would be good way to start the year.

shattered look up poll in the dictionary as that question you asked is polling all of us on what we will do on New Years, had you worded it some other way you would not have got deleted as you had no real disc
discussion. we cpuld answer that in just two or three words, nothibng to discuss.had you buried it in a discussion about family members who do not get along on a big family get together and asked if you ever had those things happen on your big holiday get together? I think then you would have a discussion that bypassed the poll.

Probably it was how I asked it. I didn't expect myLot to take the definition to the extreme. Polling normally gives you a set of choices to choose from. I was more of asking for an enumeration. Hahaha. But I did explain what I was doing on New years and just wanted to know how others would celebrate theirs.
Well its done, I do hope it will be reconsidered. If not, I'll charge it on experience, its their format so its their rules.
I'll just post my earnings page here for the reference of those who want to see it. http://flic.kr/p/97hsPa

Oh man that's such a bummer. Just 1 more cent and you could have made it to cash out. If only that post wasn't deleted. At least, as you mentioned, you've got double payment next month. Woot! Woot!
