Yup, that is definitely the problem. SavedGames is for personal data, and if it's accessible (and does not coincide with the install directory like it did in your case
) it would never get touched by anything but Xonotic itself. No data loss possible under normal circumstances.
I'm sorry that you lost your data, that's never fun
