Yep, I'm back. I decided to take a short break from blogging to let 'Lucky 7' marinate. I have one more 'Lucky 7' video to edit and upload. This one isn't going to be as good as the other two, it is called 'Left Overs/ Bonus' after all. It will have a special contribution from Japan's Golden Eggs tho so that's pretty pimp.
Now as promised, a blog about 'The Great Purge'. The Great Purge is the name I decided to give to my darkness day in combo making history. After spending a good 2-4 hours editting 'Lucky 7' (Part 2). I decided to go back through it and make sure all the combos that I wanted in it were in it. Well in my rush to see the end product put out, I left out my Heihaichi's Stone head- Omen Thunder Godfist ender. This was one of my favorite combos AND one of the harder combos in the video. I got mighty upset I left it out so I pulled it out of my combo folder and put it on the desktop to remind me to put it in the re-made Part 2. At this point, my brain must have shut down because I went on a deleting frenzy. I deleted the video without the combo(all 6/7 minutes of it), I then deleted it off my desktop by clearing my recycling bin (which I usually do once I send something to bin).
I then without thinking deleted all of Part 2's combos on my flash drive (which you can't recover I found out LOL).
Yep, 70 plus combos... recorded over three nights, gone in a flash (no pun intended). One of those combos (Kris' Steve one) wasn't even done by me.
So over the next couple days I re-recorded all the combos (including learning how to do the Steve one because it HAD to be in there) so I could release Part 2. Yes sir. All because of one Hei combo. It's funny now in hindsight but man was I pissed at the time.
The good thing is tho, when I re-did the video I changed a couple things from the original video and I do believe the final product is the best I could have done. It was just a pain in the ass to have to do it all over again.
It was a lesson learned tho, I am now double backing up all my files so I never have to do that again. No more brain farts for me LOL.
