Stats are all back up to date again now.
We have a background process that does the view/click aggregation for these stats. This process was switched off while we made some upgrades - related to the geo/country stuff I mentioned above. Its back on now.

Why stats are frozen.
Adds are being displayed but no stats update for more than 8 hours now.
Can anybody explain this?

Considering someone already reported it and there's been no response... n/m, I'll let you figure it out on your own.

Following that, soon we will allow publishers the option of setting different CPM/CPC rates for different countries - and then (hopefully) the "market" will determine the going rates per country.
To me, this looks like a perfect solution. If you could add a list of the tiers (t1, t2, t3) and their average going price, that would help with bringing more advertisers as well.
That would be an awesome feature

Good stuff baztardo, balances intact -although I had a scary message about nothing in your Hot Wallet - did you have a slight run earlier or something?
Yes, sorry about that - it was very temporary and the hot wallet (used for withdrawals) is topped up again now.
In all the "excitement" yesterday it got forgotten

Can you make it so publishers with traffic from mostly tier 1 countries make more for example then publishers with the same traffic amount but from tier 2 or 3 countries
Probably not for network campaigns, we (Mellow Ads) don't want to be the one making decisions about the value of traffic for different countries. This will vary per site and per advertiser, so will be very subjective.
However, in the very near future we will be adding more stats to the network/campaign/ad space screens to show breakdown by country. This will allow advertisers to make more informed decisions about targeted CPM and CPC campaigns, i.e. if they are looking for US traffic, then they would be looking to start CPM/CPC campaigns on on ad spaces with more US traffic.

IMPORTANT UPDATE
We are currently trying to fight off a sustained DOS attack against our main server. Mellow Ads is currently offline whilst we deal with this, we hope to have it back online as soon as possible.
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience that this is causing and thank you for your patience.

Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience that this is causing and thank you for your patience.
We are now back up and running
Again, we want to give a big apology for this extended downtime. We are confident now that the system is much more resilient to this sort of DOS attack, but we are continuing to implement further security measures to absolutely minimize the chances of this happening again.
- Please be assured that all accounts/passwords/balances etc are intact - there has been zero loss or exposure of sensitive data or funds.
- Any CPM and CPC campaigns should just pick up where they left off - while the system was down no views/clicks happened of course.
- Any Network campaigns that were active have obviously lost some time due to these issues. Therefore we have extended the end date/time for them all by 24 hours to compensate for this. So if for example you started a network campaign on 4th October and paid for 7 days, then it will now run until the 12th October (instead of the 11th October)
- Network/campaign/ad space statistics will obviously show lower views and impressions over the last 24 hours
Thanks again for your patience, and for using Mellow Ads
A huge +1 for reimbursing for lost time (looks like 2x as much time, too)! Are DoS attacks what was causing the lagged server over the past week and a half, too, or just recently?
Possibly, but we don't think so. There have been 2 DOS attacks, the biggest one yesterday. Performance should be back to the way it was before yesterday now - all looks fine at our end.
