Can we recover submitted forms that didn't come through?

Apparently while Homestead was having issues with form submissions not coming through I am now finding out that many contestants entry forms did not come through. This is an extremely serious problem and issue. These forms were of contestants signing up for the biggest karaoke competition in the state of NM under the NM State Fair. Now we have people that submitted their entries showing up at a competition and they are not registered and has now caused incredible problem beyond belief. They are overbooked and the list goes on and on. I do have them also going to text file. Like I said, this is and EXTREMELY SERIOUS ISSUE. Thank you for your serious attention in this matter.
