Antonio Pizza Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 The Maury sketch was hysterical, though it did thoroughly desecrate the face of Valentine's day. XD We's pleased to aim sir, we aims to please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SempaiMiles Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 It's not about popularity demand. Indeed not!I have an eye on the tracker from time to time spreaded over the day. Sometimes there's someone who wants a newer showpack, somtimes there's one who wants an older one, sometimes there's one who wants all packs at once (which isn't that fair either). I only have a limited amount of bandwidth by myself that I have to share with my family who bitches at every possible moment that I use up the full range even if it's my ISP connection and not theirs. Not to mention that I'm surely not always there to help out. My seeding PC is also my studio PC at the same time. And sometimes I just want to swtich it off or have to work on other material (engineering and mastering for others, own songs, ...), etc. The most sad thing since I started the tracker: Okay... I am the master seeder. But 90% of the finished uploads go to my count alone. Yeah, even though I can only offer 20k/s max (which doesn't mean I "have to" do so) and sometimes have all seeds open. Most of the files offered were from me. Seldom from someone who was so kind helping out. It's not on my side but I think it's more the mentality "I have my stuff, why should I help out?!". And this simply can't work this way. This whole torrent thing started as idea to help out Larry get his shows to the audience as he can only offer the last 1-2 shows on his own webspace and the question always comes up "where can I get an old show?! I missed one". Not to mention that the shows getting longer/bigger as you might already recognised. I sure did my thing and as soon as a new batch comes out it is me again that's the only one who offer a complete set for seeding. And if you can remember - the last times even with 20k/s dedicated for one open file only. Short said: the torrent is the only possibility to get all old material and even some goodies that're usually not available. For example the aftershows, which we aren't forced to record them - we do this voluntarily! A solution to this problem must be found. All I can do is share what I have. I always offer new material for you but have no backup support from those who already snagged the material via Larry's page or the torrent to help out seeding. If others (in other words you, the listeners or the fandom) don't do that and always have an excuse with whining/bitching in the subtone then the whole torrent thing isn't worth a thing. At least in my opinion. Like I said... I did and still do most of the "offering" for you alone. I look for bugs, try to help out why the seeding doesn't work for each individual user. But I can't seed alone anymore! Especially not as soon as the new packs (VGF#44.99-#50, Prior-20 shows, Aftershow pack) will be out. And I know a lot of you are not fond of snagging a 1+GB pack (which the latest show pack will be for sure) with just 3k/s. Just my two cents. I don't frequent these boards too often, but I am offering my services in seeding the VGF torrents as often as I can. I only have 46-47 fully completed as of now, but I'll leave that window open as often as I can, and, when I get other show sets finished, I'll let those stand for y'all, again; as often as I can. (Hooray for broadband and lots of free time!) Rock. \m/ -Miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb.G Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I'm seeding 40-44, 46-47. I need eps 44.99 & 45! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compyfox Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 If you still need it, there's at least one seeder per pack each. I also started 44.99 & 45 with like 10k/s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkinzez Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Hopefully I'll be able to download episode 48 tonight, so don't take it off yet. Give it another day at least, please Larry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go home tonight to check if I'm getting any of it. Oh, and I'll be seeding more episodes. I would be doing it already, but last time I was prepping episodes to be seeded, I was unable to access your tracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Guy Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Alright. Hedgehog Heaven has been released. Larry, please give us one finger on the video stream on Saturday night, like you did last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted March 12, 2005 Author Share Posted March 12, 2005 Looks like the laptop's AC adapter connection area is being a ho. Gonna have to get it repaired, and hope to get the comp back on Thursday. VGF's cancelled for now, with hopefully a makeup coming late during the week, perhaps Friday. Apologies to everyone, especially Bladiator (Happy Birthday!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rexy Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Ouch, sorry to see the show didn't go ahead. But heck, I'm sure we can all wait on for the makeup show when it comes around. Good luck getting the comp fixed. And happy birthday to the B-Unit, you lucky bastard, you [EDIT: And I don't know what the heck some of these people were getting at to me in episode 50's chatlog (yes, I sneaked my way onto Paige's webspace ) but some of their comments I found were rather offensive. I know it's meant to be a sarcastic atmosphere, but... "so fat offline and online"? WTF?] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleJCrb Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Suckage on the computer, Larry. I've got my own show going, but I really need to try to start listening to other shows, including VGF, again. I've been so out of the loop as far as most VG radio goes, it's terrible. I'll check it out sometime next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHz Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 VGF's cancelled for now, with hopefully a makeup coming late during the week, perhaps Friday. Since D-Lux is still locked out of his account, I suppose it falls to me to express frothing outrage at your choice of day for a make-up show. *ahem* You know that's when VGM is, you silly.

Rexy Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 That quote came from Gothic_Fairy_Princess, or OverCoat. Then again, almost anything could be expected from him. But yeah, I found that to be an awkward surprise as such; not exactly the best thing to see first thing in the morning, but I'll try my best not to be so rash next time. Ironically, I don't know what to expect from yanks on a Saturday night ; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analoq Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 hey, we call starblast fat all the time and you don't see him complaining about it, now do you? of course not, because he's got some thick skin. ... ok. sorry about the 'no fat chicks' comment. p.s. star is awesome.

Rexy Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Hey, I don't see that as your fault man. More likely it'll be mine for not exposing any photographs of myself from the shoulders down And yea, suppose Star could be taken into account on this one. But who gives a toss about real-life appearance anyway? It's the music that counts, heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
