I have noticed a couple of sites in the network seem to be linking with 3 text links insted of the normal banner. Am I imagining things or are there alternative advert styles?
Yes. Log in and go to Setup Instructions. Notice where it says: Type To Use: there's a dropdown where you can choose the layout. Reading with your eyes open always helps
Haha classic excuse Judges must be hearing similar claims all day everyday. (I didn't know it was his car! I thought it was abandoned. I didn't know it costs anything, I though it was free! I didn't see the 30mph sign so I though 50 was fine!) I'll let you off though. Enjoy your new links and increased weight! (PS it's been there since day one.)
