That's happened to me two or three times. I usually just install the stupid thing in a different browser and move on.
Sorry, I don't have the ability to post the hits with the formatting and I figure sharing any hit is better than nothing. I try to share before they disappear and don't waste time digging into the quals. No need to be ungrateful.

One time I finished an hour long survey, highlighted the completion code so that I could copy and paste it, and then my computer shut down for no apparent reason. I booted it back up and went back to the survey, hoping that my progress would have been saved, but nope! It was gone. So naturally, I called it a day and went to the bar. That's why long hits always make me nervous, unless it's something where I know that I can manually save my work myself.
