Finding deleted projects

-Littlediddle-

Hello, hello!
A few years back, I deleted my old account (Littlediddle) for some stupid reason involving studio invites.
Thankfully I have changed, but there's a problem.
I deleted the account and chose to delete all projects.

Now, thankfully one time I was able to find the URL of one of the projects and download it via TurboWarp (but now I don't know the URL to that project and the file is lost).

How do I view my old projects? I want to do it for nostalgia purposes.

And… maybe recreate a few in much higher quality.

It was about 3 years ago, no but 2 computers of mine died in that time.

Yes!

Fortunately, you advertised your projects in Show and Tell and also made some more posts in the other parts of the forums. Those posts are all still on Scratch. Finding them is not hard at all because there is a tool called Ocular that has a forum search.

Here's a link to it: https://ocular.jeffalo.net/search?q=%2Busername%3A%22Littlediddle%22&sort=relevance

As a result, here are some of your projects:

Okay, I will look through these.

Edit: I clicked the ocular link, and I have to say, I was a little crybaby back then.Whew.

Yes!

Cool! Do ctrl + h and then search “on scratch”. A list of all users and projects you have viewed over the years will pop up. Then, just look through each of the links looking for your projects.

None of these appear in the emails.
I haven't cleared my search history, but since then my computer died effectively clearing it.

ctrl + h should be opening your search history on google.. what do you mean by emails?

Oh, now I understand - oh, oh.
I've never been one to use Google Chrome (I'm more of a firefox person) and so this search history doesn't exist…

Go to the firefox search history.

Go to the firefox search history.

You don't understand, I have had 2 computers replaced since that account was deleted - it's not in the search history.

I thought it was saved to your firefox account, but oh well.

I mainly want to find a game I made called “Project Retro”. It's somewhere in the monochrome SDS - I'll try looking through the comments to find it.

As long as you have the URL, it's possible to access the projects using an external service like turbowarp, or directly with scratch by putting the numbers in the URL after the text “projects.scratch.mit.edu/” in the search bar.

I know, I just don't know how to find the URL.
Thankfully I have dumped all the projects I wanted, however.
But seriously, I wish I had never deleted that account…
Can't believe I deleted an account and insulted Za-Chary over a couple of studio invites.. No wonder I didn't have any friends back then.
