Did you have this problem? To login and nothing absolutely ever happened, and then I wrote to MyLot and even the messages weren't going, asking a thousand times to try to send again. Did you have any problem with MyLot on the 9th and 10th of april?

Yes, there was a problem with the system for several hours yesterday. It was resolved eventually (actually quite quickly) but it was frustrating while it lasted. This is the second time this has happened in a few days.

Yes, two times! I really wish they send us a message telling us what happened... Or like an announcement in the front page when the problem is solved. It freaked me out that something was happening only in my account. Is there such a thing as the MyLot's official blog? I seeked for but didn't find.

No, there is no 'official blog'. I believe that it's something which GAA has considered as a possibility. The nearest you can get to it at the moment is probably his profile: http://www.mylot.com/goaskalice It is well worth going through the discussions and responses there. Most website owners are reluctant to talk about faults in their programming. This is partly because, when there is a fault, the most urgent thing to do is to get it fixed (and, once it is fixed, it's history), but also because putting a message on the site is often either impossible (because of the fault) or a waste of time (because it will be fixed soon and, until it is fixed, nobody knows very much more about the fault than the users do). It is only those of a nervous disposition who 'freak out' when something isn't working. Sensible and experienced users know that nothing is ever 100% perfect and that, when there is a fault, you can be certain that someone is fixing it, so it's best just to be patient!

I noticed for three days actually that the logging in and or posting was interrupted. It appeared to be either a server and or scripting issue, but noticed today there were none. So it appears to be solved.

Well, by now I'm really glad then. It really happened to everybody: posting, couldn't go through with it. People couldn't login, it was definitely MyLot then. Thanks!

Hi katie: That's actually something new to me. I didn't know about this problem until I've read your discussion. Here in Mexico, things have been ok. I've been here and I've participated on the site without any problem. ALVARO

Hi there, Mexico great place. My fiancé wants to go there to see rares fishes that only lives in Mexico! I don't think it was a place problem but more something to do with the JavaScript of own MyLot. Cheers!

maybe it's because of your internet connection so you coudn't write messages.

I really couldn't login, there are other people saying there was. I had other tabs opened and I could surf in other sites. Thank you, but it seems something happened here with the JavaScript.
