OK, so who the fvck has sent this torrent details around half the world, cos I think it's highly unlikely that 285 people from Anandtech are downloading this :disgust:

Edit: Yeppers, my suspicions were correct, it's been uploaded to Suprnova. Thanks, whoever Zimu from SN is!

So much for an AT only torrent :roll:

I wasn't the one that uploaded it to suprnova, but what difference does it make if it's been shared with more than just AT?

i'm the guilty one.

whats wrong with sharing it with the world community?! i think its a great show and i've been pushing for a slot for top gear on the tv shows list, which hasn't appeared yet cause there aren't enough uploads of the show as yet...

Fair enough, I suppose you made your point ;)

I was just surprised when I came back from the other building to see the leechers jump from 15 to 300!!

Also does anyone else think James is kinda lame on the show? Jeremy and Richard both own that show.

How about the letting the forum download it first. Only 8 k/s, uploading at 20k.

Doubt it. Should let it run on ATOT for a few days before giving others access merely because its an ATOT thing, with these guys who open up their bandwidth for other ATOT members. Guys like Isekki with the limited bandwidth but fast upload will be giving it to unknown leechers instead of other members.

Just don't do it again. ;) Just woke up so seeding until I get home.

with the rapidly increasing number of seeds, you should already be able to download it at your connection speed. so fvck off and stop being such a selfish d!ck face.

I posted it somewhere else, but it was on a Porsche board I frequent, and in a thread that was already discussing the episode. :)

It's a good group, I doubt they'd be leechers.

I have a .8 rating right now, and I'll let it run once I'm done to make sure I go over a fair amount.

i don't really understand this torrent stuff...from what i've read however, i can only download as fast as i upload, right? That's what my experience is at least with the original BT software or ABC with default settings or upload speed of 3kb/s...

unfortunately, my verizon dsl connection maxxes out @ 10kb/s, and when i upload my downloads drop from 190kb/s to ~10kb/s :(
