That moment when...

[Fistodragon]

You play a Nuzlocke for a YT video and have nearly 4 hours of footage (only about 20-45 minutes of actual footage because most of it was grinding level) and you click save game on a ROM instead of save state....Game file got corrupted. Now I have to start over ;-;

[Caite-chan]

Not gonna lie but your avatar matches the whole situation...lol. I know that pain and suffering.

I was making up price tags for items at work on the laptop and before I could save the laptop blue screened. I was ready to run it over in the parking lot.

Yeah the same has happened to me before. So much so the last save state I had was 4 gyms ago and many hours of training back. Long story, short. I delete the file and never went back xD. Sorry to hear that. That kinda game breaking error just flat out sucks.
@Caite-chan lol why do work pricing machine suck? The ones at my work do the same. Though mine isn't a laptop. It's one of those large scanner things with a wireless printer. It freezes SO often and you have to just warm boot it (like soft resetting). Note: it doesn't save. So on certain isles it can be anywhere from 150-500 items....lost just like that. The 500 set more specifically to fishing. Such small items :3 but yeah it's soooooo frustrating in retail isn't it? I'm always at the ready to just throw them on the ground. Hard.

Mine is a Redemption Room where you trade tickets for prizes and I was doing the tags for the prizes when it happened. They have to be made up and printed out. Then cut out and stuck in the plastic things and then put out by the prizes.

What's worse is forgetting to save and then having a power failure...



Moral of the story? Save regularly and often!

That's when you just say the hell with life because you don't want to have to do it all over again. And you get that down feeling knowing you have to start ALLLLLLLLL over again.

Sorry to hear about it, it must have been pretty frustrating for you. Something similar happened to me once; I was writing a story, had 15000 words done, and then my Word processor (a free alternative to Word) glitched out and wouldn't let me load the save (a seven-year-old computer with Vista that froze every 10 minutes probably didn't help). You can bet I used Frustration for days, to the point where I got a new computer that Christmas. On the bright side, my second draft of that same story was far better, so at least there's a silver lining to be had; maybe your next Nuzlocke, if you do one, will be even better! :D

I don't often play many video games kids play these days. I rather enjoy a nice Pokemon battle and continuing my research as a Professor. There was this one time where I had been working all day and writing a report on some new findings using my laptop. It was pretty late at night already and I was tired as it was. Moral of the story? Make sure your laptop is plugged in before you fall asleep while writing research papers cousin. I lost a whole day's worth of work from that, yeah. It was wasn't very super let me tell you. Oh well! You learn from experience, yeah!
