Title: How do I recover my old Clash of Clans (COC) game save & base?
Question: I unintentionally and stupidly wiped my Clash of Clans game data. I went to Application Manager on my Android and clicked 'Clear data'. (I used this for fixes before and it never started a new game.)   Now, my level 60 or so base has been wiped as if was to start a new game. Have I doomed myself to starting again or is there a way in which I can retrieve my old game save? Maybe by contacting Supercell? I have a snapshot of my base.

Answers:
sents: text: If you signed into Google+ before wiping your base, you can log into Google+ to recover your base.
text: (iOS users can also use GameCenter for this)
text: Beyond that, you'll have to contact SuperCell.
text: They've got a FAQ page for this :
text: You can submit a help request by sending a message from the game on your device.
text: To send an in-game message, tap the in-game settings icon, select "Help and Feedback", and then tap "Report an Issue".
text: That will assure we have all the necessary data to make the recovering process as quick as possible.
text: For this, you'll need to know the exact name, clan, level, and town hall level of both bases (the one you wiped and the current, mostly empty one).
