Can you upload it to my server as soon you have it?

Their stupid policy won't let me download it until 24 hours after its been out.

Why do I get a "Not authorized (xx h) - READ THE FAQ!" error?

From the time that each new torrent is uploaded to the tracker, there is a period of time that some users must wait before they can download it.
This delay in downloading will only affect users with a low ratio, and users with low upload amounts.

Ratio below
0.10
and/or upload below
0.5GB (new person)
delay of
24h
Ratio below
0.50
and/or upload below
0.5GB
delay of
10h
Ratio below
0.75
and/or upload below
0.5GB
delay of
6h
Ratio below
0.90
and/or upload below
0.5GB
delay of
4h

"And/or" means any or both. Your delay will be the largest one for which you meet at least one condition.

In your particular case, your total uploaded of 0 GB implies a delay of 24 hours. (Even if your ratio is '---'.)

This applies to new users as well, so opening a new account will not help. Note also that this works at tracker level, you will be able to grab the .torrent file itself at any time.

N.B. Due to some users exploiting the 'no-delay-for-seeders' policy we had to change it. The delay now applies to both seeding and leeching. So if you are subject to a delay and get the files from some other source you will not be able to seed them until the delay has elapsed.


Finally, remember to forward the chosen ports in your router and/or open them in your firewall, should you have them. See the Why am I listed as not connectable? section and links therein for more information on this.
