Awww, school starts tomorrow and I just back from my trip.

673. Ugh that was only Monday, 4 more days to go ><.

My school played a team who came over from Denmark today in basketball. I went to the game and we blew them away 61 to 32 or something. It was kind of disappointing, I thought it might be more intense if the team came all the way to America to play.

YAY!

I got up before the sun today...

Practice from 6-7:30AM AND practice at 3:50-5:50PM...

Tuesdays are just 7-7:50 workouts

wednesday and fridays are just evening practice

Thursday is 6-7AM swim and 7-7:50AM workouts...

Fuuuun. There's more than that for the days of winter break

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Mon Dec 01, 2008 11:08 pm

675. Do you have the swim team all year round, or is it seasonal? Just because that seems like a ton of practice, especially for all year.

Off season track might start in a few weeks =D

Nice purple name tribzi. Apparently we have a Download Section team now.

Well you need special rights to post in the download section(so it doesn't get all crowded) so that means we need people that upload things to be available for download to have those rights

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Tue Dec 02, 2008 8:00 am

678. Yay for purple! Yeah I just wanted to be able to start uploading and help with the DL section.

Sounds fun, but I prefer to torrent my anime.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Tue Dec 02, 2008 9:11 pm

680. I don't know the point of torrents, they just seem like very slow DLs. I think theirs some secret I'm missing that could make torrents faster, perhaps in my internet configuration. But right now I don't know it.

Yes it may be slow, but for me (and for most people) direct downloads are usually slower. Also, another good thing about it is you can mass download and not think about downloading the episodes one by one. And you can turn your computer off and continue downloading later, unlike direct.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Wed Dec 03, 2008 5:16 pm

682. Direct downloads usually take 3-10 minutes for me, and torrents can take several hours depending on how many people are seeding it.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Wed Dec 03, 2008 10:18 pm

683
Well I guess if you torrent things with no seeds, it will take longer, but if you have a fairly good amount of seeds it is faster.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Thu Dec 04, 2008 9:14 pm

684. I don't mind torrents for music. It's nice to get full albums, and it's the kind of thing I usually don't need immediately, the kind of thing I don't mind downloading in the background. The album I'm currently DLing is at 17 more hours >< Guess I'll have it for tomorrow.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Thu Dec 04, 2008 9:51 pm

Dang that's a long time. You must have only 1 seed -_- A good torrent has at least 20 seeds. 50 is good, and more is really fast.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Thu Dec 04, 2008 10:55 pm

686. I've got 4 seeds right now. Pretty lame, but I usually use torrents to find more obscure music, programs and movies so it makes sense. I don't ever remember having a torrent with 50 seeds. What kind of thing has that many seeds?

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Fri Dec 05, 2008 1:24 am

687

I know that after Bleach comes out, it has like sooo many seeds because everyone is downloading it at the same time and everything gets uploaded off of them while downloading so there's a lot for that.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Fri Dec 05, 2008 5:13 pm

688. Yeah it occurred to me in this discussion that when something just comes out it must have a lot of seeds.

And good new, my music is done DLing! It also occurred to me that I should let it seed for a little while before closing the torrent for other people. I guess...

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Fri Dec 05, 2008 9:58 pm

689
Note that popular movies, music, and etc have a so many seeds. I've seen 10,000 seeds before... I believe that direct downloading may be better if you have no seeds.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Fri Dec 05, 2008 10:43 pm

690. Yeah, I wanna try DLing the next Bleach right when it comes out to see how fast the DL actually happens.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Sat Dec 06, 2008 2:46 am

691. Sounds good.

I hate when people put viruses or trojans in downloads. It's so annoying getting rid of it.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Sat Dec 06, 2008 9:42 pm

692

People that do that have no life and like making other people's life hell because of it.

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Sat Dec 06, 2008 11:48 pm

693. Yep, I've been driven insane my fare share of times by terrible viruses.

More like those people are extremely smart and uses it for bad instead of good =P

Subject: Re: Count to 1000 Sun Dec 07, 2008 10:54 pm

695. This is the most upbeat I've felt on a Sunday night in a while.

Dang it I'm getting way too tired to come here often at all O_O
