would a 1-26 pack still seed to all other torrents or would everyone have to re-download? I would just make it easier to only leave one torrent sharing instead of 6 or whatever there is.
Thanks

a 1-26 would work in a sense...
1. Start download
2. after it finishes allocating...stop it
3. get finished episodes already d/led and overwrite the incomplete ones (rename finished files exactly as the incomplete ones)
4. restart d/l and bt will check the existing files...
so after it finishes checking the files it'll recognize the finished pieces...and only d/l the unfinished ones
but for this to work the files need to be EXACTLY the same and have the same name, in the same directory, etc etc
So it can work...but mainly in the way i mentioned above
although i not too sure this will be a good idea...cause people already are a bit hesitant when it comes to reseeding the current batches...so they'll probably be even more hesitant to seed a batch of over 5 gigs...(if they even seed)
