ANNOUNCE Buffalo 17 March 2006 on QZ Tracker

Sir GH (and others) I can only sympathise - I admit I turn my computer off at night. Since I launched this on the QZ tracker I feel a certain responsibility towards this torrent, but I can't seed it alone all the time... As I write this there are seven other people seeding this - thank you!!! - but it would be great if more of you could help out.

And for the record, my share ratio is currently at 4.46.

... I for one quit at 3.8 share ratio yesterday and I'm seeding again today.

Unfortunately, I can seed only in daytime working days, but whatever I download I always go on seeding until 2 / 2.5 share at least.

HTH

It is quite clear that many Queenzone users (including many experienced members) do not fully appreciate how torrents work. People shout for seeders within an hour of a file being uploaded. Others ask for seeders six months after a file was made available.

Many of the recorded downloads will be by users who couldn't download for one reason or another. Others, like me, download the torrent to seed having got the file from another source, in this case Dime. Torrent statisticcs don't always tell the whole story. Azureus may record a complete download when the user may only have been downloading a sample part to check quality etc. This then leads to accusations of hitting and running.

I am a power user in all my torrent sites, all ratios maintained above 1.5. This isn't easy within the UK as commercial providers limit the upload speed to a fraction of the download speed. It is also mathematically impossible for all users to have a positive ratio. For every user with a positive ratio, there has to be a negative. Demanding all users have a 1:1 ratio simply will not work.

Torrents cause a lot of bad feeling in here. If a practical solution, such as a dedicated torrent area with achievable and enforceable rules can't be arranged, then perhaps those who choose to share may be better encouraged to use file hosting services.

Rapidshare gets a lot of bad press, but you upload a file once and it will stay there forever if you have an account or until it hasn't been accessed for 30 days if you don't. No ratio's, no selfishness, no bad feelings.

Wise words, Manic. There are many reasons why not enough seeders are around at a certain point of time.

Just a few statistics: at this moment
this concert (Buffalo) has
12 seeders, 26 leeches and 145 finished copies

Duluth concert
6 seeders, 9 leeches and 176 copies

the Worcester 3 songs DVD (most popular BTT of the year)

25 seeders, 13 leeches and 431 finished copies.


Not so bad, really and in most cases someone re-opens the torrents when people ask. A share ratio is planned but it won't be the perfect solution as Manic pointed out correctly. We rely on a hardcore group of sharers who enjoy sharing. The bigger this group, the better the torrent.

I seed at lease 2 full copies of everything i download and some i've seeded 5 or 6 or 7 or 10 full copies of.
and for burning a cd, you have to get a program that can burn flacs or get flac frontend and decompress the flacs to burn them

Yeah, I realize that... I just hypothetically chose something. I was frustrated, and am still frustrated with the general situation. At the moment there are people seeding, but the fact that there was a 12-hour period when nobody was sharing is just plain awful.

i cant get this floss thing or whatever to work i must be an idiot lol all i wanna do is burn these tracks to a cd ive been at it 3 hours i cant get it i have win amp > a flac encoder ughhh

Thanks for sharing this. Can't wait to hear it.

good evening.
thaks for this great gig in flac files.
to not forget it is complete.
many many thanks for the effort you put in this.
i am enjoying this concert aswell.

I finished downloading it earlier and started to share. I later turned my PC off, so my rating isnt the best. I have opened the window again now, and hope this helps people.

Cheers for the upload.

Can anyone share this again, please? I'm at 61.2%.

Thanks!

Thanks Ginger1 for sharing this concert !

But some of us sadly can't use torrents.
Could someone be kind enough to re-upload this using mediafire or rapdishare, when finished downloading the torrent ? It would permit everybody to have an easy access to this gig, and taste the new "Queen+" thing live in 2006!
I myself re-uploaded the Nagoya 2005 concert which was not available anymore.

Many many thanks to you,


Regards;

Olivier,

Please could someone seed this show or any other show from the 2006 US tour.
Thanks
