I am currently the only seeder; why can't seed to anyone in the swarm?

[MidwestDrummer]

Right after uploading my torrent, I was able to seed just fine. And as you can see by the image below, I've upped 20.6 GB worth of the torrent. But after about 10 days now, I'm not uploading very much. From the image, you can see that there are 18 leechers in the swarm, but I am not seeding to any of them. Now, I know it's normal to not be able to seed to every single leecher, due to them possibly having connection limitations that prevent them from connecting to me. I'm not expecting to seed to all 18 leechers, but if I'm the only seeder, how will I ever complete an initial seed? Is there anything I can do to get the initial seed out quicker?

Thanks!

What error messages are you getting in Logger tab/window when peers try to connect on that torrent?

The only thing I see in the Logger tab/window is:

[2009-08-21 19:01:37] IPv6 is installed

[2009-08-21 19:01:37] Got Teredo Address: 2001:0:4137:9e50:1872:31f7:b3ab:eeee

EDIT: I'm and idot, and just saw this thread: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=3456

I'll report back my findings.

If you are the only seeder then you have 100% file downloaded. The rest in the swarm are peers and they have less than 100% of the file downloaded. If you feel obligated to continue the seed then do so. Normally I will seed the file until I reach a ratio 1 or greater. This means I uploaded the file at least once. But many peers will just drop as soon as it is done. The bad thing about a file without seeds means the file might be incomplete even in a large swarm. The other reason I might stop seeding is if the peers drop to zero.

I hope this has answered you question?
