Hi!
I finally caught the pokemon for the shiny quest and I was busy leveling up (I know I should've saved but I didnt'.)
Now, I wanted to see the updates for August, and I clicked the arrow to open it. Unfortunately I missed and clicked on "August" instead. The link opened in the same tab I was playing on, and I lost everything :( No, I'm not trying to get it all back..

Anyway.. my suggestion is to make links open in new tabs/windows, to avoid dumb players like me, to lose everything they did.
Sorry if this has already been suggested.

I think that's a good idea, happened to me too but not with shinies ;P thus I switched to exe. But it can really help some players.

i sometimes have this problem too. when i go afk (away from computer) only to take a glass of orange, my little sister shuts down my pc within 3 seconds and i've to start it all over again. i don't feel like stopping the game for some thrink so i just go afk while doing an level, and i am probably not the onliest one. there should be something to automaticly save the progress you've made instead of having to push the 'save game' button each 5 minutes because many people forget this often enough, and not only stupid ones.

its like finally having a pikachu, electrode at level 42+ and 10 other pikachu's caught and then my sister comes along and presses the shut down button on my pc just to be annoying and goodbye everything! I don't feel like getting it back, seriously.

by this primitive way of saving i've lost:
shiny growlithe
shiny vulpix
shiny victreebell
shiny butterfree
shiny beedrill
and last but not least control over my karate >:( !

Actually this thred isn't about saving but opening the game in a new tab on Sam's blog...
Btw saving was done automatically a while ago but this didn't pass cause of the lag and people couldn't save or play at all as it put too much stress on server. ;P
