I'd like to know if I am the only one something like this happened to

The closest thing I can think of is where I registered (with some other service, not Mt. Gox) two usernames without realizing it.  Logged in as the wrong one and saw no activity.


I placed an order and I sent 10.5 btc in.

The way you wrote it confused me.    Just to make sure I follow,

You had a balance after adding Dwolla and using that balance placed a buy order which got a partial fill.

You then, coincidentally, did an Add Funds -> Add Bitcoins entered 10.5 and then clicked Send Bitcoins.  Then you sent 10.5 BTC to the address that you got from Mt. Gox: 1PsAZgtbsYLEqo7k1gxakyyYgRRhUoSrDS

It should be easy for someone at MtGox to check to see if the address I sent it to was one generated by them

It should be easy for the accountholder to check to see what that address was, on-demand, at a later time.  Mt. Gox doesn't provide that, but it should, in my opinion.

So I listed that under the exchange's Criticism section.  Maybe this will change when the site gets an update.

As far as no longer seeing any of the transactions or the funds added, hopefully the exchange can identify what the problem is.
