Is there anyway to undo accidentally deleted decks?

TappedOut forum

Just today I was going to delete another deck, when I absentmindedly clicked the wrong box for the wrong deck and didn't register it till I already hit delete. Is it just gone for good, or can somehow it be brought back? I know this is unlikely but one can hope. I also am sorry if this is the wrong forum.

I own the deck in paper so I can confirm what's in it, its just a humongous pain to rewrite it, and the upvotes and comments and tips from other users would be all lost.

The fact some emails, though those are corporate enterprises, have ways to do so from stuff that was even deleted from the trash bin, gave me some slight hope. Thought I'd ask in case there was anything that could be done, but I knew there was probably a slim to none chance.

sorry... we do have a temporary delete which should allow you to back out of a deleted deck if you visit it again. otherwise yeah i would just go to google to see if you can get something from cache

Thank you. Figured as much but I wanted to ask first. Oh well, time to remake it.

Maybe https://archive.org can help you?

I used Wayback Machine, found and copy+pasted the description from there and remade the deck by looking through my paper version. Was out of date, but I made do. Thank you, though.

Sorry to necro this, but this is still a giant problem on this site. Any fix would be GREATLY appreciated. Just lost a highly voted deck to a mistake. Last I knew, deleted decks lasted for a day or so and could be brought back. Ngl, I'm pretty salty about this.

That is strange because the delete should give you 24 hours to undo it. Have you visited the deck in question to make sure it's really gone? You can cancel the delete during this time.

I remember many years ago there used to be a bug on the site for PC users (chrome at least) that, when you had multiple (different) decks open in different tabs and did a change to ONE of them which would trigger a top-of-the-page message, that message would douplicate on the other tabs as well, and sometimes apply the action which would have caused the original message on the first deck to pop up onto the other decks that have nothing to do with what you did to the one deck you were originally editing... if that makes sense.

Now sadly, I don't remember how to reproduce that or if that has been fixed, or if that is what happened to peoples' decks AND I'm on mobile rn xD

Just remembered it and thought it might be relevant.

sergiodelrio is appreciate the assistance, but the deck link is now just 404d. Was 404d the minute I accidentally deleted it. Been using this site for almost 8 years, but this snafu has me looking at other deck builder options. It's a shame, too.

Sorry, if you're able to reconstruct the deck I'll donate some feature tokens to get some attention back on it. I think there may be a related bug.

yeaGO I do appreciate that. I've been trying and it just doesn't feel right. I'll see if I can get it as close as it was as I was in the process of building it in paper. I have a chunk of them, so hopefully I can remake it. Be on the lookout for Disa Goyf-Goyf Binks 2.0

yeaGO, I really do appreciate it. I'll link the new deck. I don't think it's quite the same, but I think I may have accidentally made it better. Silver lining :3
