Hi, let me know if this is obviously stupid and won’t work. I’m an old pirate but obviously still pretty uneducated. I’ve got a dead torrent that’s a collection of roms. 4 seeders, 800 abandoned peers (ungrateful basterds). Seeders are rarely online or can’t provide more than 8% after a week. The roms are pretty mainstream and it’s strange for this torrent to have been abandoned.
If I can find find the exact releases of as many roms as possible in the collection from other singular sources, can I resurrect this torrent by just copy+overwrite into the unfinished folder? is it that simple or is this hubris? am I too old to be this stupid?
if the hash matches, yes. if you have the magnet, dm me i will seed it.
sent. thanks, man. thats gangster as fuck. Just curious because again, I’m still pretty ignorant. do you assume you also have the torrent because you’re a data hoarder or are you interested in trying to help me bring it back?
I’ll add it to my seedbox at least.
beastly 👍
I’d be down to seed as well if you send it my way
It’s downloading for me. You might have some port issue. Make sure you forward incoming port in router.
Regardless I’ll seed it.
honestly that wouldn’t surprise me, it happened before. Just hard to diagnose because it’s never consistent and Tribbler seems to be temperamental compared to other clients I’ve used.
after making some replacements other seeds showed up though and filled in the other files I hadn’t got to yet. so weird after 6 days of zero movement
Me too, I want roms.
sent 👍
