well...shit...

Once again I've escaped from Psymon long enough to write some stuff...
you know how it's been taking me a long time to submit a new comic?...well it's gonna take even longer now...ungodly longer. My external Hard Drive has been wiped clean, everything is gone, every comic/sprite/pixel, everything. How did it happen? Apparently my 360 did it.
Was testing something on a friends 360 and wanted to try putting one of my saved game files on his(not gonna go into what we were doing), so I hooked my external up to my 360(done this to the PS3 for the same reason tons of times and have never had this happen) and try to copy my save file onto it only to get a message saying "The data storage device is not configured with the 360. Would you like to configure it?". Ok I'd like to state that I have had a ton of things put on my external that needed to configure it so they could run and had no problems. Apparently "Configure" on the 360 means "Wipe the motherfucking device clean and leave no traces of previous files/programs"
So yeah, lost everything, technically not everything I did store all the comic sprites onto a flash drive but sadly I cannot seem to remember where I put that thing.
So I'm gonna be searching for that flashdrive and trying to reacquire the programs and files i lost as well.
Also just for the sake of saying this, I am not completely computer literate and don't claim to be otherwise but usually when a program is gonna wipe something clean don't they usually have some of the following words like "Format" "All Data will be erased" "Wiped clean" to let you know that will happen if you choose "ok"? Seriously, I did not read anything that said that was gonna happen, nothing at all.

FA+

But do not write over it. That is very important, because if you write over it, you won't be able to retrieve that data.
