Does anybody else have a 'broken' MyLot bank?

I've been on and off the site most of the day reading, commenting, responding and I've earned 1.2 cents. My balance hasn't moved since 7 am this morning UK time. I'm wondering if something is wrong technically as that's never happened to me before.
This is totally not the sort of post I'd normally start but I really would like to know if anybody else has also got a broken bank?
I'm sitting here with a post I spent some time writing but I'm really reluctant to launch it if for some odd reason nothing is earning today.
Does anybody have any ideas what might be wrong?
EDITED TO ADD - I just had a nice message from GoAskAlex saying that several people have reported this problem and if it continues he will get someone to go and give the bank a 'smack'.
So it seems it's a known issue and we shouldn't worry.

Mine hasn't moved, either. In fact, it still says $0.0000 for today, which, in itself is unusual (zero amounts don't usually display at all). I think that there's an update or a tweak to the earnings program underway. Perhaps @MyLotBugs can confirm?
I'm sure that there's nothing to worry about, however, and that everything will be sorted out in due course.

At the old Lot this used to happen, and they made it right as soon as they could.

Mine hasn't moved in like 3 days! Okay, it's moved a little, but not much.

@boiboing Yeah, same here, for the past few days. I'm definitely not reaching payout this month, and have more or less given up on the idea of even trying. I'll get there next month I guess.

It's moving again but I'm quite disappointed by how little I've got today.

I have had the same problem, I have been here on and off all day and the the bank has not moved a single cent. This is a nuisance because it it has discouraged me from writing at a time when I was going to make extra effort.

@Hatley Mine's moved up today but I guess I lost a lot of time yesterday so I doubt that I can make the goal this month after all.

For today I've been at 0 and I know that's not right!

@boiboing Maybe it needs a good laxative to get moving!

I was going to say, I had't noticed, but I wasn't paying attention, and that would be odd, and you know over the last few weeks it felt funny. I wonder if the bank has the flu!

Yes, I noticed it this morning. It hasn't moved since late last night.

You'll most likely be fine. Seems it's moving again.

So far today the only think that made my bank move was completing one offer. But other than that, the bank has not reflected any other possible earnings(which there are probably not much at the moment). I hope they get it resolved shortly.

And of course, now that I commented about it, things have updated. Including a penny or so from yesterday, and a few from today.

I don't know how much you used to earn each day ,but I generally earn several cents every day ,because I can only come here in the afternoon and do it intermittently .As for the bank problem,I guess if there is a problem with synchronism on count .

Maybe updates are slow because of Thanksgiving? Just my 2 cents.

Yeah, i think I've got the same problem like you today. While I see i do commenting from different responses however, it sounds doesn't change!. hehe i feel a little bit weird becuz I see that it will auto refresh the earning sys in about 1 hour, as the term says.
