I don't know if anyone else noticed but there was another small upgrade/fix done on Google on saturday night. It looks like they were addressing the ridiculous QS issues many people have been having over the last few weeks such as (from my own stats):
multiple campaigns with different geo targetting using same domain and keywords getting radically different qs
silly slaps like different plural versions of keywords going from 1-8 qs inter-campaign wtf
kws with super high ctr getting slapped while low ctr kws remaining unchanged
and many more
long and short of this is as of yesterday many of my "slapped" campaigns roared back into action with most keywords getting decent QS even with direct linking and some of my non-direct kws grabbing 9 and 10 qs. this happened across the board for me.
There are still a few anomalies in there but by and large G is looking good for a change.
personally i think they must have taken a serious hit moneywise the last few weeks, hence the fix
