Sorry to announce some outages in the following days... but there is a nasty problem with my db and i have to kill some bits... size is way beyond 5GB. Size should be like 500MB, searching for problem in progress. stay tuned for more information!

The easy route would be to persuade freakkater or Hiramiya, I guess. The hard route would be to poll their torrent pages with something like FlexGet using the html plugin.

It's not like new beatmap pack... packs.. are out often anyway.
indeed i tried to build up a rss-feed, but i don't like the frameworks that provide them -.-' well maybe in the future.. added to request-list!

there are about 600 unique seeders worldwide online throughout the whole day and about 1/10 is a seedbox-ip... it wouldn't cause all the torrents to stop downloading but for sure, it will loose a little of it's overall speed. 8-) kep it up after reinstalling please :!: :arrow: MANY THANKS!!!

UPDATE: I have started reinstalling my OS at my VPS now and expecting to have a huge download pull in 2-3 hours time.

currently planning to include all small beatmaps into my torrents ;)
(this would be a tough job since utorrent save location behaviour is really weird)

Edit: I have enabled FTP access to my server just in case that your torrents doesn't download at all (because of misconfigured settings or having shitty ISP)
Just go to ftp://chong601.no-ip.org or ftp://162.248.92.185 (just in case my hostname expired lel).
Recommended to use Filezilla Client (yeah it defeats the torrent purpose but just putting here for convenience if your torrent doesn't work)

well not completely... :idea: :arrow: you can add this to the tracker-list as a webseed... helps to save some time eventually...

ups... sorry, i have a scripted frontend where i can add some things that are in beta-stage... as like adding ftps to torrents... officially in beta test and maybe added to dunctionality in the next month/years, depending on amount of requests for it.

In the meantime, i have 2 torrent running together at the same time to do some testing... (Hope it works though :o)

well horribad news... the VPS that i am currently using having some really bad DDoS recently... instead of routine maintainance, i will perform server migration from Chicago to LA... should be done in 200-600 minutes according to the provider atm... (and some performance tweaks to make the server more responsive to really high upload speed in excess of 20 MB/s since there's some VPS/seedbox with that speed around these days though)

EDIT: have been completely migrated my VPS to another location... the hostname for FTP still remains the same (ftp://chong601.no-ip.org) but the IP has been changed to ftp://64.94.100.118

UPDATE: Server is back up.
Changes:
  1. Changed location to LA
  2. Changed utorrent version to 2.2.1 (screw 3.4.2 they are pure crap)
  3. Some hard disk improvements (we have SSD in place)

I'll help :P
Server located in NetherLands


I'll leave everything I grab on there, pretty much until I decide to let the box expire.

Edit: Or rather, I would --- IF I could actually get the .torrent or the magnet link...

Since the beatmap-torrents are now well-seeded... i have stopped all seeding and now focusing on 1-330 extreme big packs till it have 100 seeds...
(I will seed back small torrents after i have done seeding packs 1-330

Once beatmap pack #370 comes out could you make a new torrent for 1-370, containing the original beatmap packs, and not a repackage into one file?

I know there's good intentions behind the 1-330, but packaging into one file is just a really awful idea for many reasons:
  1. It cuts your seeding pool in two. People using the old torrents can't seed from their files: they have to redownload everything again.
  2. People that downloaded from the site can't seed from those either.
  3. It wastes space when extracting, especially if it's a .rar just containing more .rar files.
  4. Users can't do anything until they have the whole huge file.
  5. Users can't set priority on packs they want sooner than others.
  6. Users can't select individual packs to download and seed, if they just want a few of them. This is especially important for people with bandwidth caps.
  7. Really, torrents are made to support multiple files, letting users select which they want to download and seed. This single file torrent is a huge step backwards and hurts both seeders and leechers in terms of availability, bandwidth, disk space, and downloading options.
If you switch to a single unified torrent, it'll eliminate the need for both the single file 1-330, and all the individual torrents for 1-100, 101-200, etc. You'll have all your seeders in one place, and users will be able to choose which packs they want to download and seed from in their own client.

I am actually preparing to do this which i plan for this style because i only get big beatmap packs first then smal packs thereafter:
1-100
101-200
201-300
301-310
311-320
321-330
331-340
341-350
351-360
361-370
(This will change when the 301-400 packs are available when all small beatmap packs will be consolidated into one big pack to make file management easier)

The reason I did not download small beatmap packs from 1-300 is because if i chose small packs, I can't seed big beatmap packs as big beatmap packs only have one folder and all 100 packs are in it. If i pack the torrent with big beatmap packs, others can point the small beatmap packs to the big packs in which when they do torrent recheck, i will check those files that are in it and ignores other files unrelated to the torrent.

Yeah the one big chunk of .rar files messed up my hard disk fragmentation due to the way I set my utorrent to use sparse files which makes a high fragmentation issue every time i downloaded the torrent (in which some seeders might experience a few upload influx due to me attempting to make defragmentation easier) and most of those seedbox and VDS/VPS user which i use have size limitations on their hard disk in which if we use these beatmap packs, it will be easier on our side too :)

It's also a good way to divide the smaller.

However, Most people who download the old songs seem to be all at once.

My recommendation: Continue the normal beatmap torrent making, just add the giant beatmap packs which include all big beatmap packs (100 packs) and then followed by small beatmap packs (eg if the giant beatmap packs reached 300, just add small beatmap packs after that (301-310, 311-320 and so on). If new giant beatmap packs released, just add the giant 1st).

tl;dr version of the above: prioritize the future extremely large beatmap packs this way: giant beatmap 1st then followed by small beatmap packs
