This is seen WAY TOO OFTEN. My lock is stuck after i picked it!, why is my lock upside down after i picked it? The answer, get a small piece of metal and press on the pins that are protruding from the bottom of the heyhole preventing it from being moved.
sticky!

If you wrote a better explanation and maybe included a diagram, you'd have a chance of making this a sticky. But right now, you just sound a little bit high. sleep it off buddy, Squelchtone

I think the info he provided is just too vital to the locksport community, that to NOT sticky it would just be crazy. Haha, I'm with ya.
