Yes, the compiled clips zip file is that size.

Time for a periodic update.

I'm not on IRC anymore. When giving maximum bandwidth to other things, I kept getting disconnected. I wasn't serving files anyway so there really wasn't a point to it.

My really large torrent is still streaming along. I give it all the available bandwidth when I'm asleep or at work, and reduce it when I need the internet. The 42+ gigabytes of TG related materials from my IRC server (videos and mangas, the link with the list is on page 1 of this thread) is being downloaded by between 30-45 people whenever I look at it. In the many days since the project started, I've sent out over 24 gigabytes, and availability shows 42.5% if you're connected to enough peers. And it can only get faster as more gets streamed out and more peers join the download.

The clips torrent seeds keep disappearing, but there aren't many people downloading that.

Anyone want to share their thoughts? After all, I did start this thread relating to sharing files, and not just for me to babble. Read the first entry to catch up.

You might think about uploading them to rapidshare or megaupload.

From: guest (Guest) , 201 months, post #24
Actually zshare would probably be best for that

From: guest (Jonny) , 201 months, post #25
Timber, I'm really interested in the Turnabout TV series episodes and the Goodbye Charlie TV pilot episode...Like the others said, would you be able to upload individual things to Rapidshare, Megaupload, etc,?? Thanks...

From: Timber , 201 months, post #26
I don't care how others share what I'm sharing once they acquire them. Often in the past, once someone gets what they want, they rarely continue sharing it with anyone else. And I'm not just talking about torrents.

Last I checked, places like rapidshare and all those like it can't quite support a 42 gigabyte archive file, and I'm not breaking up the files to make them fit whatever their max size per file is. Again, what others do once they get it is up to them.

I don't know how hard is to create a edonkey/emule server.
Here is more info.

I think, that advantages are:
Users get credits for sharing, so who is generous download faster and skip others in que.
It is easier to use. Clients decide which folder want to share. It is also easier to add new files

So maybe more users wil stay sharing, but mayority will probably still be selfish.

Or just share without creating server (client download)

Btw. If anyone has a 760 MB version of Wish upon a star (body swap between sisters), please start Emule and share it, there is about 30 people waiting to finish download.

From: Timber , 201 months, post #28
I just spent the last half hour investigating those options. I couldn't figure out what zshare was, and am not familiar with it. I have used megaupload and rapidshare before but never really looked at them too closely. I reviewed their FAQs and terms of service and here's the short version of what I found. If anyone knows differently and can point me to the documentation, please feel free to do so.

Rapidshare hosts no larger than 100 megabytes per file. If I were to split the archive, you're still looking at 430 pieces. It would take a very long time to split and upload that. It'd probably take even longer to download because there is some kind of download limit but I can't find what it is.

Megaupload will not take anything larger than 500 megabytes per file if you want free users to download without paying for a premium account. That would mean 86 pieces and probably take just as long to split and upload all that. They too have some kind of download limit which I can't find.

And of course, in their terms of use, no files that violate copyrights. That's the bulk of the archive. Also similarly their terms of use also indicates something regarding pornography which some of the content also is. So Jonny's requests will not happen, at least not by my hand. And I'll reiterate that what others do is up to them.

EDonkey and EMule are just peer to peer sharing networks, no different than bit torrents. Pretty sure that the same kind of apathy with regards to torrents would apply to EDonkey.

From: guest (embe) , 201 months, post #30
Maybe the problem is that sharing is illegal, but having files not. (At least in my country.) That's why new seeds disappear.

I am also downloading huge torrent, but I have limited connection to 20GB per month, and I share it with brother and father, so for me is about 7GB. I chose about 2GB to download and set full upload speed, so it is easy to keep share ratio above 1, maybe I add some files later, it depends how long will be torrent available. Maybe it is little help, but I can't do more.

From: Timber , 201 months, post #31
Every little bit helps. We're at just over 50% availability if you're connected to enough peers and as far as I can tell things are running smoothly. The new people joining the torrent are getting good speeds at the benefit from those who I've been sending to thus far at a snails pace. So hopefully the first seeds besides myself will be at 100% within a week.

embe, I do hope you manage to get everything you're interested in off my server torrent since your connection is limited.

Don't forget that with your torrent client, you can most likely select files to assign a higher priority to if there is anything in particular you want to get faster than others.

From: Timber , 201 months, post #32
So some 19 days later, my torrent is showing I've sent out over 44 gigabytes of data. The most any peer currently has is something over 85% and there are many in the mid to high 70 percent so full seeds shouldn't be long now. Anyone who's interested in acquiring the stuff from my IRC server should probably get on it soon because I don't know how long the seeds will stick around once they have everything and it'll take a while to download. Once additional seeds are created, I won't be giving much bandwidth to the torrent since it's been nearly full blast for the last 3 weeks and I will need my hardware to take a rest.

I will most likely create an additional torrent for various stuff that I acquired that was never placed into the IRC server. That will be a later project so I'll give an update and a file list when that one is green lit.

where can i get the torrent file ur site is down

From: Timber , 201 months, post #34
Guess that happens when you forget to pay the bills. Hopefully I'll have that rectified soon. In the meantime:

Server torrent

From: guest (motumbo) , 201 months, post #35
thanks for posting that link

From: The Gambler , 201 months, post #36
Looks like everyone should be start seeding since most leechers finish downloading today or tomorrow. But I think most of the people will act like before, hit and run.

I personally will keep on seeding as I promised----until somebody pisses me off, just like last time.......

From: Timber , 201 months, post #37
After 24 days, the torrent is showing over 100% availability, though no one person has become a seed yet. If connected to enough peers outside of myself as the only seed as of right now, all 42+ gigabytes of files are available. So get it while you can folks. This opportunity may not come again.

From: guest (Peanut) , 201 months, post #38
I'll seed as long as I can, Hoo-ra.

From: guest (Swiftner) , 201 months, post #39
I'm still about 18% shy of the whole thing going at about 60-100KB/s. I have my upload set to unlimited but the most I've seen it go is about 40-80KB/s. Are People capping their down speeds?

From: guest (Heretic) , 201 months, post #40
Hm...
How long can I hope to see this torrent? I`m happily seeding about 777mb of this file...
I`m waiting for my new notebook with a little more disc space, since this torrent is actually bigger than my hard drive at the moment

The most torrent progs are automatically capping the down speed if the upload is to limited.
