I just log in again after 5 days i guess and I saw this notification. What does it means?
" Well, those of us at myLot had a rough start to the weekend. Our servers are hosted with Amazon EC2, and a huge thunderstorm on the East Coast of the USA knocked out power everywhere, including one of our EC2 datacenters. As a result a huge number of websites around the internet faced outages, myLot included. We were finally able to restore service to myLot around 6pm CDT on Saturday. We know that myLot is a vital part of the lives of many of our users, and we definitely apologize for the down time! We"think" things are fine now, but if you see any more hiccups this weekend, please know that we'll be hard at work rectifying any issues. Anyway to make up for lost time, let's have some fun. Sunday and Monday are both going to be QUADRUPLE Earnings Days on myLot! This means your normal payout will be four times higher than normal for these two days. Check back late on Monday and Tuesday morning (CDT) to see the QUADRUPLE Earnings. We're sure you have lots to discuss. Of course, please adhere to the myLot Community Guidelines as usual. Happy myLotting!myLot Staff"

If you ever want to convert times from different parts of the world to your own, just use this site. It is what I use to work out these differences for webinars and such that always posted in USA times.

CDT - Central Daylight Time
You can find more about it here: http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/na/cdt.html
I've already read the alert and based on my understanding, they had a power outage and they are giving quadruple participation rewards during Monday and Tuesday CDT. (So I guess this post is counted on that since I'm Asian)
Well with that I am expected to give more participation that the usual because of the given "encouragement".
Happy quadruple myLotting!

syoti look at the clock at the bottom of the page. That is myLot time.
At the moment there are still 30 minutes of Sunday left and then 24 more hours of Monday for the quadruple earnings.

Well, the site did come back up when they sad it would. It worked intermittantly for a little while and then went down with Server issues. Then it came back up and has been working very well so far. CDT probably means the different time zone. It was pretty self explanatory. Happy Mylotting.

It definitely is referring to the time zone. Whatever time of day you normally see your earnings posted from the previous day - when you check, you'll find they've quadrupled thanks to this little bonus from mylot to compensate for the power outage.
That storm was bad! A tree from no where landed in front of our house! I am going to upload a photo later that I took with my cell phone. We were lucky not to lose power.
