gfrobe Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Last night I started a download and was pleased to be getting speeds of up to 300mbps. I went to bed and now this morning, the speed has dropped to .03mbps and it says I'm connected to 83 (864) peers and 0 (295) seeds. Can someone please explain to me how there can be 295 seeds and I'm unable to connect to any of them? Is that normal? And is there anything I can do to help the situation i.e. connect to a few of these seeds? Thanks.
Firon Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 What's the availability? If it's less than 1, fake torrent probably.
gfrobe Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Posted July 31, 2006 Availability is .6787 so does that mean it's a fake? I thought it would be less than 1.0 if I weren't connected to a seed though. Does it not work that way? Others have also downloaded the torrent and left positive comments. Thus far, I've got about 75% of it. Is there another way to tell whether it's a fake? Thanks.Merged double post(s):Hmm... just went back to Mininova where I downloaded the torrent and it now says no seeders or leechers. Last night there were a bunch of both. Does that mean the tracker may now be offline?EDIT by silverfire: The edit function exists for a reason. Please do not double post.
Switeck Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 It was almost certainly a fake. Mininova probably took it offline.
