I'd seed, but my ADSL has such a poor upload ( it's officially 128k, but torrents never exceed a fraction of a kilobyte ).

Honestly the torrent would usually take me around 3 hours to download. Last year all I ever did was just do DirectDownload but I guess that isn't running anymore?

Now I got grab the vid from a friend who has usenet and gets his in like 20 minutes...then I just usb drive it to my place and watch it like that.

When I dl from the office my ratio usually gets up to 5:1 by the time I finish, so I jump right off (also so I don't get caught) images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

At home I set utorrent to seed until 200%, sometimes 100% when I have a lot of stuff queued up.

Yeah I was slightly annoyed that for most of the download I was DL at <20kb/s and uploading at over 200k/s.
Its happened for the first 3 episodes so far. Takes me about a day to get it images/smilies/sad.gif

hell I was at 2:1 before I had even finished the DL!

Just would like the finalgear community know that my seedbox can and will seed up to 100mB/sec usually around 80-90mB/sec. I'd like to keep it up for as long as possible and help seed multiple torrents but unfortunately I have a limit of 10 torrents running.

The old torrents tend to keep themselves alive well enough, it's just those new torrents (especially the packs) need help off the line.

And thanks for helping seed. images/smilies/smile.gif
