Now we have an additional problem to report...

I noticed a wet spot near the pool this morning, and measured the water level this evening. We had some light rain today, so I don't know an exact amount, however I do know the pool lost somewhere around 2.5 - 3 inches of water in the last 24 hours. My gut tells me that I managed to rip the liner while brushing the algae, however the water is too cloudy to see anything to verify. My calculations say I have lost around 1200 gallons.

Does this sound like a possible (or probable) fix?

I hate to keep throwing chemicals in the pool if the end result is a new liner anyways....
