3. Windows somehow corrupted and I need to reinstall Windows 7. This basically means a 50% chance of everything getting wiped, as Windoze reinstallations tend to go. I had all of my current all of my RA2 things saved in a C:/Games/ folder. If everything DOES go wrong, at least I can use recuva or something to get some of my bots back..
Can't you just take out the hard drive and hook it up to another computer and get your RA2 files then reinstall Windows?

This is pretty much what all those tournament hosts should also learn.
I bought a cheap external mount for a HDD on Amazon so I could move files from an old laptop to a new one a few years back, it's been invaluable in situations like that.

Solution to all of these problems:
>Store stuff on home computer
>Have HDD of everything at home
>Have another HDD of everything somewhere else near where you live but in a remote location like a storage unit
>Get Dropbox/OneDrive or both or more and dump as much as you can on there

All bases covered.

Ouch, I hope it gets fixed soon.

Is it too late to ask to submit a team or two?

That's gotta suck. Been there, twice.

Nowadays I use my external hard drive only.

I aced a three-hour long martial arts test... with a cold. Did I forget about the asthma? I'm still shaky five hours after finishing the test.

If you are visiting the Pacific Northwest, stay WEST of the Cascade Range! Why? Everything* east of the Cascades is (mostly) uninteresting, arid farmland/small towns/vast areas of nothingness/Yakima. The scenery is great and I'm sure that things aren't as bad as I make them sound, but there's a reason the Space Needle is in Seattle and not Spokane.

*Everything=Everything in the Pacific Northwest. This means Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
Follow me on Twitter? I'd like to see you try!

It looks pretty good, but I just don't like how the bots for Scrapheap Challenge don't have a shadow and has a rough white border instead.

That was because when I gave them 1pt Soft Edges they looked really distorted and faded. They do have shadows though.
