A) You can download off both seeders AND leechers. As long as there's a decent amount of bandwidth to go around...

B) There are currently 2241 seeders and 1243 leechers. images/smilies/wink.gif

Yes, but when the ratio is really bad, like 10 seeders vs 200 leechers, the torrent is going to take forever to download (generally).

I get my torrents from a private tracker, so I never had this sort of problem.

Actually, for me it's faster this year than last. Takes me about 1 hour and 30 min to finish a 700mb episode. Not too shabby. images/smilies/wink.gif

i downloaded the latest tg episode in about 40 mins i think, with about 150-300 kb/s usually it's 50 kb/s and on upload 300 kb/s. So it was pretty good for me

I have had problems with all FinalGear torrents, except for Kip's 425 mb rip. I got almost 300kbps (My max) off Kip's but with all the other ones I got about 25-100 kbps.
