Marketplace Screw up

I recently did some updates to My Animal Age Free which changes the ad network from AdDuplex to Pubcenter. I got issues resolved and a working copy published Feb 27th. I updated manually that day.
Feb 28th, I received an update along with the much discussed Twitter update that reverts it back from the recent major UI update. Intrigued and curious, I updated my app. It reverted back to a "broken" published version where the ad fails.
If you're one of my users and wondering what the most recent update was about, it is this revert update. If you care enough, you can uninstall and reinstall the app to get it back to the intended functionality, which will provide me the miniscule amount of revenue from the ad network.
If you're a Windows Phone Microsoft person that can report this as a problem, please do so. This is obviously affected a number of apps. And I'll be losing ad revenue because of it.
