Why isn't the tracker recognizing me?

07-20-2006, 02:27 PM

I registered appropriately to the tracker (with a yahoo account), got the validation email, clicked on it once, and later twice to make sure that I am registered, I even registered on the forums, I re-downloaded the torrent after having registered, and I still can't download properly. My downloading speed is crap (runs at 1k), I can't connect to any seeds, and it seems like I'm not being recognized by the tracker as a registered user (scrape is fine though). I have DHT turned off, and I don't have any NAT problems (my face is green). What's going on? Do I have to wait a certain amount of time before I can download? I registered 2 hours ago.

by the way I'm downloading the file X-Change 3, a hgame. It has 4 seeds only and 700 leechers. Could that be the problem? Because I can connect to the leechers but not to the seeders at all, to any of them. And I should be able to, or not?

The tracker and your user account are all fine. The problem you have though is with the overall speed of the torrent most likely. A torrent with a 170 or so leecher to seed ratio is not in favour of being able to connect to a seeder. I have 150 connections as a seeder there, and if you aren't one of them, well tough luck... I won't open up any more connections for this since it isn't needed.

Anyhow, the first leechers ought to get done in 2h or so and then speed will probably pick up overall and for you as well. If it doesn't then there is something strange...
