Number in the bracket

The bracket number should reflect all your responses and discussions, too, I would think. I may be wrong. Have you started lengthy discussions or only a few sentences? And have you had people to respond to them all? I think you get paid for one discussion and one response of yours. I don't know if you get paid for all the comments of others. And, I have no idea if you get paid for just starting a discussion with no responses. I asked that of someone today myself. Maybe MyLot could help you more on these lines than we can. I have no idea how they really work out the pay on discussions and responses. 37 cents does sound like a small amount for that many discussions, if you have responses.

Nobody knows for certain how mylot figures these things out. I have been told a time or two that this is how the mylot staff likes it so don't try to figure it out. After being told that, I did give up trying to figure it out Now I just post an occasional discussion and reply to those that interest me and enjoy myself on here

No one knows what the exact formula for payment is on mylot but you get paid for starting discussions and for responding. I'm not sure if you're paid for the responses that you get for the discussions that you've started but that's a possibility, too. I gave up trying to figure it out after the first week and just mainly enjoy posting and watching my pennies build up.
