Wondering why the delay between my last BTD5 post???? Simple reason – I accidentally overwrote my locally stored game data with a BLANK/ZERO STARTING point cloud data!!!! I wasn't being careful, and I had never bothered with the cloud icon under settings, so I never gave it much thought….. until I LOST my entire game history…….
It happened so fast, that even the warning message wasn't enough for me to stop and think about what I was doing…..
The confirmation screen is a little unassuming…… For those of us that have achieved a rank of 78, there should be a BIG RED FLASHING SCREEN WARNING OF THE BAZZILLION HOURS OF GAME PLAY ABOUT TO BE LOST UNLESS YOU HAVE A BACKUP!!!!!!!!
But, I digress, because luckily….. I did have a backup of my iPhone…. The only reason why I had a backup is because I upgraded my iPhone 5S to an iPhone 6S in October of 2015, so I made sure I had a – just in case backup. Furthermore, the only reason why the empty iCloud game data overwrite happened was because I was tinkering with all the new iPhone 6S settings at the time. I was amazed at how fast the phone was (is), how fast the app loaded, how quick the syncronization was… blah, blah. And – oh let's try that BTD5 iCloud sync to see what that does – cool, I'll sync from left to right, then rigth to left……. wow – yeah, that was fast….. wait……. WHAT DID I JUST DO………. WHAT DID I JUST DO!!!?????? Well – IDIOT, you just synced your blank local game data to the rank 78 iCloud data, confirmed, then synced the blank iCloud data with your local – GREAT JOB!!!
I have to say, my eyes were about three feet wide at that point. The only saving grace was that I knew I had a backup, but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to get the data back. And frankly, I did not have time, and I had already loaded so many other apps that I did not want to restore the p
Luckily, I had a spare iPhone 5S that I did the restore on today (finally got around to it). I synced the local game data to iCloud, then back down to my iPhone 6S.
Phewwwww! With all that now over, I can get back to posting some additional BTD5 updates! Enjoy!
