But was it really broken? I made alot of money Thurs & Friday when it was supposed to be down. If I remember correctly, (I have no idea whereI saw this) but wasn't it just that requesters couldn't deposit funds into their account, they could still post HITs?
No, the requester web interface was completely down. HITs could only be published through the API, which not that many requesters use. So there was a significant decrease in available work, especially surveys, which are usually published through the web interface.

Edit: I think they did have some limited web interface functionality on Friday, though.

I'm pretty sure the only reason why thurs/fri wasn't awful was because there were a bunch of google batches and they're not hosted through the mturk platform
