just wondering but since ftp is faster when there arent many people can one of the first people download from ftp fast and then make the torrent process in bittcommet or whatever and then while the process is paused copy and overwrite the file you downloaded from the ftp into the directory bitcomment thinks it is downloading to such that it thinks the file is complete. it will do a hash check before it seeds but since it is same iso and same md5 it will pass the checksum and then you would be able to seed right. that could be a great way for us to increse the number of seeds early on.

high five anyone?

If everybody used ftp, you'd kill servers, that's the whole concept behind BT, the larger the following we get, the better BT will get, so have you're friends use SL too :P

It's only natural for a torrent to start at a trickle.
