 Ok Im new at torrent, so no flames please.

seeds 5 (838)     peers 36 (9659)

Does that mean that 36 peeps are using but only 5 are uploading?  What are the other #s?

I''ll snatch you bald-headed!

Peers also upload they just don't have the whole package.

Truth is only the mass acceptance of an opinion.

The seeders are the people that have finished the download and are still sharing it.  The peers are the people that are still downloading it.  The number in parenthesis is the total number.  The number outside the parenthesis is the number you are currently connected to.

Wow is this the main method for downloading the beta?  Seems like they'd make sure it had a better ratio.

Don''t reply to me or quote me if you can''t do so without breaking Forum TOS cause I will report you!

I'll go seed for the rest of the week, hopefully that will allow the rest of you to have it downloaded within the next 2 minutes.

I will also seed for the rest of the week so that everyone in CE closed beta has a chance to get the files,  Much better Seed ratios now than when I started on Sunday 8/10 hehe.

 

At: shadowcutter:  You should try utorrent, It's a small download, and worked pretty good for me.
