Are you sure you clicked Confirm and then Save with every edit? If you navigate around when editing (before saving) you can lose work...

Are you using Windows 7? If so you have to "Run as Administrator" when using the Editor or you'll lose your work

Those are the two "issues" that I'm aware of that can cause loss of edits

Yes, but did you click "Confirm" each time you were done editing a player (or anything for that matter)? Any change made without doing so will be lost regardless of whether you save the db or not.
