Slugs, can you also post about this at FE.org?

Sure.  Gimme a few.

has it been considered before about star wars having its own catergory on the spleen, old and new uploads would be better organised

This is a very good idea.

There are some older Star Wars related torrents that are alive/seeded that probably aren't being seen just due to age.

Star Wars Droids: The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO is one. The Holiday Special is another.

RowMan's Ultimate Supplemental 4 Disc Set would be a boon to all the new members who never grabbed it off of alt.binaries.starwars. However, I believe only one of the discs is still being seeded. I'm just spitballing some examples.

If a file is good-sized (a few Gigs), it is a lot harder to get when there is a seeder or two and few (or even no) leechers. I'm sure more people would want such things if they knew that they were there. We're talking some very cool Star Wars fan-edit and fan preservation projects.

Better organization is the key.

I actually have the entire RowMan supplemental set as ISO files on my PC. I'd love to seed these, but I'm having a little trouble getting started. I'm using uTorrent at the moment. I've created the .torrent file and then added it to uTorrent, but it is not seeding. I've renamed the file to match the current one on the systeml: The Ultimate Supplemental Collection - OT Episode VI - By RowMan and changed the announcement to http://www.myspleen.org/announce.php

If someone can just point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful. 

Best,

NMR 

Here's the best way to reseed something.

1. Go to the page of the torrent you are trying reseed.
2. Make sure the file sizes are the same and rename them to match the files in the torrent (if you only have the ISO file and not the MDS and nfo files that's fine for now).
3. Download the torrent file from the Myspleen.
4. In your torrent client (in this case uTorrent) set the torrent to download from the same folder your file(s) are in.
5. Select okay and if utorrent does hash check, then right click the torrent in your client and select "Force Re-Check"

If you have any problems let me know. There also might be some better directions on the Myspleen forums.

I don't think you are allowed to use direct links.

Welcome to the 'request a MySpleen invite' thread.  Sigh.

I understand 112 pages are a lot to read, but is it too much to ask people to read the first post (the one that says PM Dark_Jedi for an invite)?

TBH I haven't grabbed these yet (just haven't gotten around to it), but with the wave of one-post wonders popping in just to grab an invite has me feeling uncomfortable about d/l'ing anything from MySpleen anymore.

Sort of defeats the point of a private tracker.  I think I'll wait to find it on a different outlet now.

 

Normally members have only 10 invites to give, but a while ago I announced that we wanted to restore relations and would open our doors to all OT.com members. There might be a couple leeches but it's better than having open registration and letting everyone in. So Dark_Jedi and I both have unlimited invites, and yes people should be PMing us and not making posts asking for them.

If you are worried that letting in so many random people is a security issue, then I assure you we are extremely low profile compared to the 100s of other private trackers. We don't allow anything that is commercially available, except for fanedits/preservations/workprints/etc. In the past we've had copyright owners ask us to take material down and we've done that for them. We also don't store anyone's IP or email.

Here's a link to the original thread:
http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Once-upon-a-time-on-MySpleen-NEW-Star-Wars-Category/topic/12652/

Just thought I'd add this to this thread in case anyone else was worried. And stop flooding the Preservation forums with invite requests. Just PM me and I'll give you one.

EDIT: Nevermind...I forgot about tehparadox.

any chance of an invite ?

Thanks in advance :)

More than a chance. I have unlimited invites and there's still an open invitation for all OT members (lurkers included). Just ask!

Would love an invite as well - thanks!

I'd be more than happy to help seed soon, as I am moving house and FINALLY getting an uncapped data plan for my broadband (in New Zealand that is ridiculously uncommon), and I have been interested in a lot of the projects worked on here which are only available through MySpleen (such as dark_jedi's 'Original Trilogy Theatrical Edition' project).

So do you want an invite or are you announcing your potential need for an invite in the future? Check your messages.

It's probably easier if you guys just PM me, but I will try to check here as often as I can.

Figured there are plenty of Spleeners on OT who only check Myspleen when there is a release so I decided to post this here as well. Plus a lot of our dead torrents are Star Wars torrents and maybe someone of you can help out reseeding them.

From the Myspleen news page:

CONTEST BONANZA!

I have 30 MYSPLEEN T-Shirts in my living room and we are going to be giving a lot of them away. We've got several contests going as well as upcoming prizes and freeleech opportunities.

Besides the 1st prize we are also giving away a t-shirt to a random participant for each contest. So participate!

Dead Torrent Contest
http://www.myspleen.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=15534

Reseed a torrent that has been dead and get points for it. The longer the torrent has been dead the more points you get. The person with the most points wins.

Avatar Design Contest
http://www.myspleen.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=15536

Get the most votes with your new avatar and win a T-Shirt.

Animated Avatar Design Contest
http://www.myspleen.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=15535

The animated version of the other contest.

Piss & Moan Contest (aka Why I deserve a T-Shirt)
http://www.myspleen.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=15537

Convince us you deserve a Myspleen shirt in dramatic fashion. For every year you have been a member on the tracker your name will be thrown into a hat. We'll then draw one or two names to win t-shirts.

Fine Print The more you participate the more likely you are to win a shirt, however, you can only win 1 shirt.

IRC Chat for FREELEECH

Our #myspleen channel usually has between 35-50 people. We can get that number up to 100 people idling at once we'll have freeleech for a week. I'll then hand out a T-Shirt for every 50 people idling after that up to three times. That means for me to hand out a third t-shirt there would have to be 250 people idling at once (pretty unlikely in my mind).

Our chat is on irc.dejatoons.net on #MySpleen

Should be a good time. Good Luck :)
