The day after I married Keira, my sis had me play her file for her.
As I was gonna save it, I accidnetally saved overtop mine cause it was kinda a reflex to save it on mine.

Ugh.

I just had another fail today.

I was playing my DS and walking down the hall at the same time. I was turning to go down the stairs and I tripped over our vaccum and dropped my DS down the stairs. I was in the middle of mining and the game popped out of my DS. It made me very sad, lol. D;

Awww. D; /hugs Tripple
Did you find something really important before dropping your DS? I remember finishing a heart event with Gray right before I tripped over a plug... :O I was so disappointed.

Realizing at 59 harvest sprites you missed an easy one for two years that would have put you at 60. I thought I had gotten the one in the well next to the bar but low and behold I didn't. This is why check lists are your friend.

Awww... Aha, I always make sure to get that sprite by the well at the very beginning of the game.

Luckily nothing important, I had just been mining for that day and I was looking to see if I cam upon any nice or rare and such. So, lucky for me I didn't do anything important. But, I'm sorry to hear that happened to you! D;

Well, that's good. ^^ It just stinks to get a lot of work done, and then have it go to waste after something happens...D;

I know! It seems to be some sort of video game curse that happens to some.
Whenever I get something important done on the game, my DS either dies or the game falls out. D;

I know, right? My game always tends to freeze when I'm finished attaining a heart level, or when I'm done with a heart event. It's like my DS just doesn't want me to get married or something. xD

That's why I usually keep my DS on charge and hold my games in with my little finger or something.. (I hold my DS in a strange way?)

What I hate, is sometimes when my character jumps over a fence, it randomly freezes. Never on a day I've done something important, but it's irritating because I get into a good atmosphere once I've played about 3 game-days... :/

Jumping over fences is the worst. D; My game always freezes like that. I don't save too often; I usually only save if I'm ready to turn my DS off. So if I get a lot of work done, it really stinks to have that happen.

My DS has been through like war or something and it feezes a whole lot. You'd think I would learn my lesson after all of my epic Pokemon fails, but I guess I'm just too lazy to save sometimes, lol. ^^;

We have one charger between my sister and I. Where the other one went, I don't know. So when one of our DS' is dying, we're scrambling around the house to find the charger. Not a pretty site, lol.

That's happened to me once or twice and it stinks. I feel your pain! D:

Haha, Pokemon has some of those similar problems when it comes to this.
I'm usually better when saving with Pokemon, though. HM moments tend to be sort of random while when you're about to go through a Pokemon battle, you know when to save and such.

I know, so much progress can be made in both games in little time. Have to be saving often~
Exactly! You never know what could occur in HM, but you always know when it's a good time to save in Pokemon. So, I hate to admit it, but I wish there could be times when you know when to save in HM and such. Because games can always have random shutdowns! ^^;

Yeah, glitches are one of the annoying things about the game. ^^;;; It'd help to know how close you are to getting a sprite or nearing a heart event or something like that... But sometimes, it can be sort of fun to walk in those sorts of things in an unexpected way.
