Why did both of my campaigns get fucked over today?

Okay, I don't fucking get it. I'm a total affiliate n00b, granted (only been doing this about 3 weeks), but I've never seen or heard of anything like this. I was running 2 campaigns today, one a direct-linking-to-offer campaign for an offer on MarketLeverage and the other an offer from clickbooth which I made a landing page for (had an awesome URL, too).

Alright, first off the direct-linking ML offer... I know it's not huge numbers but 3 days ago I had my biggest day of the campaign (like $20 profit) after a week or so of running it and testing it, etc. etc. then 2 days ago the number of leads dropped to maybe 2 (for like $7.00 in leads), then one yesterday and then none today... but my number of clicks stayed the same (about 100 clicks) every day... why would something like that happen? The number of clicks today was the same as it was on my biggest day and yet today I didn't get jack shit for it...

And secondly, the landing page for the clickbooth offer... it was my very first hand-made landing page, so I admit it wasn't the best looking. but it's an awesome URL and it has all the necessary parts (terms & conditions, privacy statement, 'contact us' page, a 'resources' page with text, links & YouTube videos, and a google-ready sitemap)... Anyway, when I set it up late last night, it said that almost every keyword in each of my ad groups (which I tried really hard to make very relevant and tightly grouped) had a "great" relevancy score (and those that didn't, were still "good"). It had good traffic and good conversions over night and this morning and my bids were low and I was showing profit... and then I get home just now and every single keyword has been made inactive and is asking $1-5 PER WORD to reactivate them! What the FUCK?!?! :2gunsfiring_v1:

Sorry, I guess all of that is more of a rant than a question but if anyone can maybe suggest thoughts as to why something like each of those examples would happen (and even how I could fix it, if that's not asking too much), I would appreciate it.

Thanks!
