We are having technical issues [RESOLVED]

Sorry, we are having a technical issue that affects the availability of our web site and of the graphic banners. We are working to resolve it.

Update 22:10 UTC: The issue probably appeared about 5 hours ago. We expect to fix it in 1-2 hours. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Despite the mentioned problems, publishers' ad units are continuing to earn and advertising campaigns are continuing to spend. Publishers' income is not affected.

Since the issue is related to the graphic banners, advertisers that have them will be compensated for the missing impressions.

Update 23:19 UTC: The issue has been resolved. The  main site should be available and the graphic ads should be served properly.

The estimated downtime was about 6 hours. Here is the preliminary list of the  advertising campaigns than were affected by the issue (in the form of the JSON array of pairs <campaign id, estimated loss in satoshis>):

The estimated advertisers' losses will be compensated in a day or two.

Withdrawals from user's campaigns go to user's account balance

A-ads users' balances are automatically used to top up the depleting balances of their active campaigns (the ones with positive daily budget and activated ads).

In order to pause or stop the campaign, the advertiser has to set its daily budget to 0. It may leave a tiny unsused balance that is sometimes too small to get withdrawn via bitcoin transaction.

That is why we introduced a change: if advertiser requests a withdrawal from her campaign, the campaigns' balance will be returned to her user account (instead of bitcoin address). So even a single satoshi left on the campaign's balance can be withdrawn (and the campaign can be safely deleted after that).

This change doesn't affect anonymous campaigns that are not linked to any particular user.
