Today I will mostly be kicking myself and calling myself an idiot.

Went into the first TGP I ever wrote a script for. It is a complicated thing because it was written when I was learning Perl, and did not know everything yet. As a result it uses about a dozen different scripts and about thirty different flatpacked databases. Trying to add my pop under to the site I accidentally deleted all the scripts and databases!

Re-uploading and redoing file permissions was annoying enough, but I have not backed it up in a while, so had to restore from an old backup. Fortunately the TGP is not one I allow submission to, being the first one I scripted I used sponsor galleries to avoid further complicating it by writing a submit form and associated scripts. However backing up from a (very) old set of databases means it is full of dead links, and as soon as I can find the time I am going to have to go through it and kill the dead ones. Again because it was an early script of mine, it cannot do this itself, so I am going to have to check them all manually.

Shit, just what I need. More work!
