I recently started making a Jarvan guide. After about 3 and a half hours of work I closed it out after saving. When I clicked my profile to find it the page was blank. I backtracked into my history and got the link to my guide. I went in to edit it and only the very beginning was left! What gives? Do I really gotta start all this **** all over again or is this some odd bug and it will restore?

Edit: It seems to have reverted to my VERY FIRST save of the build.

I have heard these horror stories before. Personally I just make sure to view my guide in progress before I exit out of the window. A lot of people also use word to keep a backup of their work in case something happens... Sadly I'm not sure about finding your lost work. :( I just wanted to emphasize the save often and back up philosophy.
Thanks to Minho for my sig!

I appreciate the response, to clarify a little bit.. When I went to my guide from my history, it was there in its entirety. I went to the Add Champion section on top to see if Jarvan had been added, he had been. I proceeded to add Jarvan to my guide and I then scrolled down and saved. For whatever reason, 85% of my guide had been erased upon adding Jarvan, but I didn't know before I hit save because well, why on earth would I ever expect hitting a button would erase it all?

When you clicked save, did you get a popup every time? If you close without getting the popup telling you that the save was successful, then your work may not have saved properly. If you did get the popup telling you it was saved successfully then it should all be fine.
