Okay this was an odd day for me and I've only been on myLot for little over an hour. I started 14 discussions, this one included, so far. When will I stop? Maybe with this one. Who knows. I did something like this once before. That was the day I switched to DSL and spent 20 plus hours straight here. I mostly responded too other discussions that day. That day I made just over $6. Now today is double earnings and I wonder if I'll make that much. If so I can make payout. But I am not expecting it. What has been your longest day spent on myLot? How much did you earn for that day? HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I have enjoyed being on MyLot too and meeting new friends. I also enjoy your discussions. So far I haven't started but one discussion because I am really at a lost now for topics, but enjoying responding to others. I have to say that I was here for the money, but now it isn't that important as meeting and corresponding to the friends that I have.

I can't remember when it was.....but I was close to getting my number next to my avatar change....I had like a hundred to go so I spent most of the day..with breaks inbetween to get my number to turn....it's just a guess at how many I posted.....or how much I made.

I had never tried to reach a certain goal here in my 4 years as a member. I just wanted to blast away with my new found DSL high speed connection. LOL HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

So far, I guess it'd have to be today, as I still haven't gotten through my email notifications.

I wish I could reverse time where at the time of fun and I could not stop saying. Once written no words to give up until the bell rung. From time to time always seemed not satisfied with just looking and wanted to try it. May not be done at one time, we are limited to do it alone. I do not get much but tried my best.

Wow 20 hours straight, that is too long to be somewhere constantly. Personally I would not be able to do that. Usually I don't have much time to spend here, so I just come whenever I can and I just makes few cents in a day. But I remember one day making little over $1.00 like 2 years ago. Hope you can make payout.

I miss the days here when I made $1 very easily. But then, the discussions weren't like the ones today. Only quality ones back 4 years ago. Too many one liners now days. But I am back with a vengance today it seems. HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I've been on here way too long today, I should be working! I have 30 articles due in 8 days and here I am, schlepping around myLot! I've earned a couple dollars in one day but it's usually about a quarter to a dollar daily. I'm more of a responder, I don't think my discussions are interesting as I don't get many replies so usually I just respond. I started 2 today but that's not because of the day, it's because the subjects were interesting to me. I hope you find today is very profitable!

You've had a busy day, GB! I must admit, I haven't been a regular visitor to myLot for quite a while - I've been addicted to Facebook games, and it's a fulltime job keeping my Cafe, Island and YoVille going - not to mention the farms! I'm trying to cut down on them a bit and reclaim my life - I'm sure I had one before the internet came along!

Oh my goodness! 20 whole hours on MyLot?! I couldn't imagine doing such a thing! The longest I've spent on it is a few hours here and there. Sometimes I hop on while at work, while on my Blackberry (as I just recently found out how to make it work - I didn't know before), and sometimes at home. Probably totalling a little over an hour a day. I earn probably about $1 a day and sometimes a little more or less - it fluctuates. Anyway, later on today though I really want to crank out some good discussions - just because it's a "double day", and it would make it worthwhile for me. Anyway, have a good one!

Me too I just don't know how long I can sit here and keep at it without my eyes starting to hurt but I say I am going to be on here most of the day for double pay hey I made a rhyme L.O.L. Nice hat by the way! I have been on here since I woke up and still going not stopping yet! Good Luck and Happy My Lotting today!

I can sit here for about 20 hours each day. I take care of my dad and I am semi-retired. No job as I have to be near dad if he falls etc. Plan on being here a lot today though as opposed to my usual Facebook games etc. HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I really don't know my longest day on here, as I come and go all day long doing all the other sites that I am a member of as well. This being double earnings day, I will probably be on here longer than normal. I do have th other sites to do too, but I would rather post in here for awhile. I just hope I can mae some good money today. I do think I will be able to though, as I have bave been able to reach payout eveey month, so today, will just be a little extra. I think we can all use that, especially in this economy where things are more expensive, and not a lotof money to go around. I am really happy though that mylot is paying us double today, as it will give more users an incentive to be active, and hopefully post quality, as I am afraid that some users will just post and post and not do quality like they should. I will definitely post quality. Good luck, Merry Christmas, and happy mylotting.

I don't do other earning sites. Well I do paidinbox or something like that. But that's easy and does not involve writing a lot. Hahahaha! I have no idea how long I'll be here but I do know it's going to be a long time. Just adding comments to my responses here is taking a long time. HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Wow, you spent twenty hours straight here. That would be pretty tough for me to do. I have been a lot more active today because of the special double payday made by the Admin. I really hope to make it worth my while today to post a ton more than my average amount.

For me it is really hard to say because I can't just do one thing, I am on the computer from morning til night. I do housework or cook in between and even when I am on the computer, I am writing for my work, answering emails, mylotting and playing scrabble just jumping back and forth. Today I didn't write though, but I did everything else.

Gee, 14 discussion so far!! I dont think I have erver started more than four in one day. Some days I go without starting any discussions. Since I have returned to My Lot about 2-3 weeks ago, the higest I got to was 97c in one day. There is just no way I have the time to be on My Lot and with the trouble with a few My Lotters last week, I nearly quit. I know we have the double points today. For us ausies, there was a big time lapse and most of us couldnt start it until it was half way through. I thought I would give it a try and see how much I can do. I am about to start my 4th discussion.

Well, you are one of the ones on mylot who were here during "the good 'ol days". When we posted regularly and could go over a buck a day with no problem. Of course I haven't had dial up in years, so I can imagine when you got high speed you felt like chains had been broken!

hi bob, I spend more time on here reading and thinking. I also get caught up in some discussions and re-respond which I don't think earns us anything. I don't always make payout. It's all good...I enjoy it here. Even with the double earnings...haven't been on here more than usual...maybe even less than usual. I have so so much to do with christmas and I have a daughter that is pregnant...exciting but High risk so I do a lot of running for her. The double pay is very nice but I can't say that I've been able to really take advantage of it.

hi grandpa bob once when we still had our apartment I kept mylotting until two in the morning and made two dollars and fifty cents, I cannot do pictures so cannot make more that way but i did all the other stuff, commenting, responding and making discussions. boy was I happy and did that again for about four days then had to get some sleep. I need to get a modern camera and learn how to load photos. but anyway Ido love to mylot a lot and am going at it with a vengeance today and tonight. maybe stay up a bit longer.he he he.[/em]
