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,

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.
