Most definitely! I never took the time to figure out the wardrobe thing on Subetalodge until now, what a hell of a way to learn to do it.

LOL yep! Luckily it's not too hard once you get the hang of it. I'm still working on copying and pasting my codes. I keep getting application errors which is slowing everything down.
One person's hypothesis I saw, and I can't remember who said it, but they said people may have been removing items from the wardrobe to turn in to quests when the glitch was happening. So I'm hoping that a majority of the missing items are worth under 50-100k, apart from a few rare and cws that people also removed to sell or possibly move to a pet treasure or any other reason they would have taken it out.
I bought back a few of the ones I was missing from the google docs list. They were cheap enough that I didn't mind buying them again. Others are old Esther items. I bought back the Secret Garden Key because I had a hoard of Vesnali coins, but the other Vesnali items I am missing will just have to wait until I get more during Vesnali. Missing the Winnie the Pooh background has me a little perturbed though...

I keep lists for all of my collections on Subetalodge, not just the wardrobe. It's definitely useful not just for helping to check which items I already have before purchasing, but also just to have information in more than one place.
And once you get your lists updated, it's easy enough to keep them updated if you just remember to go add the items there as well whenever you add them to a collection on here. At least that's usually what I do.
And so far, most of the items I'm missing have been cheap junk that I don't really care that much about. There have only been a couple of things that actually have decent value. I'm trying to be hopeful that between the 4 month old backups and the lists being provided by other user reports, they'll be able to get most of this figured out in the end. I'm still very frustrated, but staying angry about it won't really help with anything so I'm trying to not be too worked up over it anymore.
The big problem for a lot of people is that this sort of thing seems to happen every few years. There's some big glitch that causes data to be lost somehow, and it's like... you would think they would have learned at some point but I guess not.
I have lists of everything else in Subetalodge, just not my wardrobe (lesson learned, lol). I was telling my husband about the lost data issue and he was surprised no one was checking back up data often. He's a computer programmer, so for him it seemed like situations like this should be avoidable. I just shrugged and said I dunno.
With everything else going on in RL I just have to shrug this off a little and hope for the best. It's super frustrating and I am disappointed that things were mismanaged, when it was a completely avoidable situation. I also agree that it shouldn't be happening every few years and something needs to be put into place to keep this from happening. Too many people invest a lot of time and their own money into this site for this to be a recurring problem. Hopefully this is a wake up call for this type of thing.

Honestly, it should have been avoidable. I'm not even a programmer, but whenever I even change my profile code or something, I save a copy of what I had before in case I mess something up and can't figure out how to fix it. So especially for people who do programming for a living, having backups of the data is extremely important and there's no excuse for not knowing that or not thinking about it. Someone should have done a check before they started rolling out the new wardrobe to make sure everything was backed up in case something went wrong.
And yeah, I realize too that pixels on a petsite isn't really that important in the grand scheme of things. But for people who have put a lot of time and money into this site, it is still disappointing to be having to deal with this. Although I do appreciate that they are working on it now and still communicating with us and trying to answer user questions instead of just being like, oh well too bad.
I agree with you completely. I always have copies of things saved. I even have lists saved of old data when I was changing up my hair more frequently on here. They definitely mismanaged things by not checking the back up before rolling out the new wardrobe. My husband was yelling at people last week for doing something similar (though not nearly as devastating because it was a testing site before they rolled out the data live).
Yes, for the people who put a lot into this site, they have a right to be upset and angry, especially with the CWs involved in the deletion. 1000 CSC does not even begin to cover the time, money and effort people have put in. I am glad that they are communicating with us too. I think that it's important they stay transparent about the issue and the steps they are taking to fix it.

I decided not to buy any new wearables in the steam shop until the wardrobe thing is fixed. It's not like the shop closes when the event is over. And I still have no clue at all what I might be missing. Yuck And with all the dancing I've only had 1 single duel (which I lost of course). What happened to the duels?

All I lost is mostly cheap items, and I've reported the ones I know of through the new system. I feel awful for people who've lost CWs.
I haven't had a single duel and I've checked every time! It's like the rate is super low this year.
I have no way to find out what I might have lost because I don't keep a list. Guess I just have to hope they are able to put everything back. And still no duels.

I just submitted my report of missing items finally. I probably missed something I actually did have but oh well. Once this is all over, now that I have my wardrobe list I can sort by price and buy some new stuff I didn't have.
I agree. The last thing I remember happening that we had to remember our lists and file tickets about was the whole fiasco with the "claim titles". I have a ticket with a few titles I was asking to have back, back in like 2016.
I apparently had used some of SBL's lists before, but I can't figure out how to mass update my pet's food and book lists now...
Good Luck! Hopefully this will get better soon.
I just can't wait for the wardrobe to be stable enough to want to use it.

For the food and book lists, I think you have to update one page at a time, since those collections are paginated now. At least that's how I did it to start, and then when I feed my pet now I just add individual items to the checklist.
me too. Luckily I had a masquerade outfit saved that I put on before the lag and errors got too bad but I wanted to play with new items... The old wardrobe is straining the site too much and the new wardrobe is no where near ready imo and now all the attention is diverted to researching and restoring items so the wardrobe is just in limbo.
I figured most of it out now. The stickers mass add is the only one I can't figure out. I pasted the source code and it recognizes it as sticker-related but the stickers collection isn't in the dropdown and won't let me submit without choosing something in the dropdown.
Man, why didn't I use the lists years ago? This looks so helpful for finding cheap items I don't have yet 😔
For the sticker collection, which page's source code are you trying to add?
Because I used this page just now, and it recognized it and put Sticker in the drop down list.

For some reason, I never got a notification for your ping.

Yeah, but then you also have the people who think the stay at home order means never setting foot outside until this is all over and they get upset at people who are going outside in their own yard. I found one of those on Facebook a few days ago. So far, I only leave my house to do chores in the morning and afternoon (except today, my truck is broke down). I haven't decided if I'm going to go with Chris Thursday for his physical therapy appointment ( we do need some groceries) and my chiropractor appointment for Friday is still up in the air. Hoping I can still go to the chiro because my hips twisted out of alignment again.
I live an hour away from the nearest town where I do most of my shopping, so I'd have to leave really early to have a chance at finding what I need. Last week, Chris picked up some things we needed after work and he said the juice aisle was pretty much picked over, only apple and grape juice was left. I had hoped I wouldn't need any groceries this week, but I'm running low on eggs and I'll probably need more milk too. I made country fried sirloin steaks last night, so four eggs went towards that.
She probably did, got stuck with a person who just didn't care. I can now put all four dog bowls down in front of the dogs and get them to wait. Sometimes, I just release them to eat all at once, but I'm also working on getting them to listen to their name (two of them have problems with this), to release them one at a time.
Yeah, 300 and that was just a rough estimate too. I work on making more stars at some point for a different project, but right now it's all sitting in a basket on a shelf. I want to bake some cookies, but I know I'll just end up snacking on them during the day. I made chex mix a few days ago, so I have that to snack on. If it stays warm here (and isn't windy), I'll start working outside, pulling weeds and maybe get some flowers planted. I wonder if the cake that was photographed had sticks that helped keep the handle in place.
I've decided the pumpkin with mice will stay out year-round. I got it on sale at Joann's just before Halloween.
Animal Crossing is a cute game. The photo you saw on twitter may have been someone who had friends visit their island and they whacked each other with nets/other tools to mess around ( which is a stupid thing to do anyway and people can only visit your island if they are your friend on the switch and you have the gates open on the island). You can get stung by wasps if you shake them out of a tree and don't catch them quick enough, but the trick is to always shake trees with your net equipped and stand directly in front of the tree so that you face the wasps when their nest falls and just hammer the A button. So far with AC New Horizons, you more to a deserted island and you are the go-to person for setting everything up. I've been playing for just over a week and I was finally able to move my house to my preferred spot yesterday. Today I'll be moving the museum.
Yup and they want the game now, instead of waiting two days for Amazon to deliver it or they just want to rent a game to try it out. Or they don't like owning digital games (I'm one of those people). I don't get it either. The only reason I still have my PS3 is to play the Mass Effect trilogy, Dragon Age Origins, Dragon Age 2 and Kingdoms of Amular. I think EA refuses to remaster Mass Effect and Dragon Age because they care more about their sports games or finding ways to add microtransactions/multiplayer mode to every game they make.
I'm glad I'm not allergic to garlic. I don't need to add another food to my list to watch out for. I already have to avoid strawberries and lentils and keep an eye on how much corn/corn by-products I eat.
I never looked at Wish on my computer but I did have their phone app for awhile. I've ordered some stuff from Wish, mostly socks (cats or Pikachu). Most of the stuff is shipped from China and takes forever to show up, though I did get lucky once and found a Dragon Age tank top that's made in the US. Jewelry is hit or miss. I've ordered two different rings, one looked exactly like the picture, the other one did not and lost a stone after I had worn it for a few hours. Wish draws people in because they advertise everything as being super cheap until you go to check out and you find that every single item is getting a shipping charge (even if it gets shipped in the same package) and the shipping price varies.
I don't know how it is there, but around here, it's really hard to find homes out in the country to buy or rent. (had to deliver that fact to my FIL because he told Chris and I to give up on building a house on my grandmother's property and just buy a house in town or in the country) I never knew there were rental homes in my little town or the neighboring one until they started advertising them on Facebook.
The older version worked just fine. I was able to find a mask in the new wardrobe today to put on so I can finally participate in Masq. I get that they want to reduce the strain on the server, but it seems like they just didn't fully test the new wardrobe. And now stuff is missing because they didn't fully test it. I didn't keep lists of anything I had in the wardrobe so I have no idea what could be missing. I don't even remember what CWs I had to know if I have all of them still.

I accepted your friend request. I use my real name as well, Katy. Next time I play the game, I'll open my gates if you're online. Yesterday I was only one for an hour or so before I had to feed my horse, then I never got back on.
I couldn't do anything in either wardrobe. The old wardrobe just showed what I was wearing and didn't load any different tab. The new wardrobe finally tried to load my stuff but got stuck loading and wouldn't even save a new outfit. It finally loaded my items a few days ago but only if I viewed all items, I couldn't look at just face items or search for keywords. Today, it's finally working. I also have zero clue as to what items might be missing from my wardrobe. I didn't keep a list, but I think I'll have to start keeping one.
And WHAT happened to the duels? Dancing for days now and I've only had ONE SINGLE duel (which I lost of course). Did they eliminate all chances of them or is he afraid to come out? Huh? :(

I've been on sporadically. Hopefully we can coordinate something soon. I'm still getting
used to the interacting bit.
I haven't unlocked a single duel. I hope to find him at least once before the event ends...
