Has activity on MyLot picked up over the past couple of days?

Over the Thanksgiving weekend, and for several days before, activity on MyLot seemed to drop dramatically, and I was actually worried that people were losing interest in the site. I was out and about a lot, but I managed to check in here several times over the weekend. My daily earnings were about half what they had been before the Holiday approached. But for me, starting yesterday (Monday), things suddenly picked up. It was as if everyone had come back from vacation. There were more comments on posts (both mine and others') and more lively discussions. My earnings also doubled, relative to the previous few days. Did you notice the change? I hope people keep interacting until the Christmas Holiday captures their attention.

I haven't been around myLot to notice a considerable difference. Seemed to me there were quite a few about Thanksgiving and Black Friday. As I prepare for my trek cross country to my new residence I have only been spasmodic so it always seems busy to me. I will look forward to getting settled and being more regular, probably after the new year.

@TheHorse Moving from the Midwest to the East Coast, NJ. In essence I am finally returning to my roots, born and bred in Philly.

Okay so what's with the bunnies, unicorns and my little pony tags? Don't you have enough to do so you're delving into mischief?

@TheHorse You thought no-one ever reads or uses the tags, didn't you? I don't normally but anything 'horse' just jumps out and hits me. I know every horse between here and Perth and that's a two-hour car trip.

It seems to have picked up. I've noticed a change. It could just be me, but it seems that people were busy over the weekend due to the holiday, which is probably why some weren't here as much.

That's my thought as well. But I was pleasantly surprised that Cyber Monday was a relatively good day. Maybe it's because if it's "cyber," it means people were on their computers anyway.

I haven't been here so much lately due to some health issues.. I have noticed this too.. I was a bit discouraged as well.. Things are slowly getting better I guess.

For me they picked up in the last coupe of days. I'm hoping people keep interacting until the Christmas Holidays settle in.

I think it has got busier , the weather has a lot to do with it. To cold and wet for going to far.

During year end, all the sites are going to have a less traffic. Hopefully, the first two weeks of current month would be fine.

I'm hoping things will be decent for the first two weeks of December, before folks become obsessed with Christmas.

Weekend views and responses are always low for me, so I now have low expectations for the weekends.

I haven't noticed a weekend dip. But weekends are a "crap shoot" for me. I'm either here more, or out of town, playing a gig somewhere.

That's true. I think that, between Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, people in the US have had other interests. I know I have. Things should settle down now.

@LadyDuck Thanks. My bank is moving really slowly this (Wednesday) morning, but I've been away, so I haven't checked to see if it was frozen.

I think the Saturday and Sunday was a bit slow, but then I did wake up on Monday with 50 notifications, that's probably just a knock-on effect from the weekend.

I had a five or six day slow stretch. Then things picked up Monday. It may have started overnight for me too, as Monday dawned in Europe and Asia.
