No worries. You have made a great job so far and some lost entries are not a big deal. And anyone who is claiming that it's a shame that this happened is just a stupid beggar.
You are doing all of this to allow people to win free games so they should not complain when something goes wrong. Even more if they are not contributors.
Keep up the good work, we like you. <3

Hi cg, I was just wondering how the recovery process is going on? Were you able to save most of the lost data out of the backups? Especially the number of entered giveaways in the profile seems still a bit low and differs a lot between users. I'm missing around 7k were other users are even missing more than 18k. Sure it's just a number in the profile, but, you know, statistics and so on :)

+1
I lost all of my entered giveaways count. Sucks a bit, for I was planning on creating a milestone giveaway. :P

Yeah I just noticed this. I was about to hit 20k entered and now I'm at 1,1k. So... there's that. If there is a chance to recover the data it would be much appreciated.

Indeed it is. It's the first thing I noticed, in fact.

Hi SG, I have some bad news today. In short, it looks like we're going to end up with entries missing from recent giveaways due to corrupt data. At the moment, about 90% of giveaway entries are not listed on the site. The majority of them are available in archived backups, and I'm downloading those now to see how much data we'll be able to recover. However, I'm certain the most recent entries for open giveaways are no longer available. That means you'll need to reenter those giveaways if you were previously entered. All giveaways that were set to end today have been extended 7 hours to offset the time the site was offline. Also, I just added 150 points to every user (up to 300 max), to help people reenter a few more giveaways.
This comes at a bad time because we're getting ready to move data over to a new database structure to help avoid situations like this from occurring in the first place. Nonetheless, I apologize for any headaches this causes and I'll keep you posted on the recovery process!
Edit: We'll be able to recover 90% of giveaway entries, and they'll be transferred when the site is updated to v2.
