I've uploaded about 800 megs so far, I've been sharing about 100kB/sec for 2 hours.

I'll let it run until I go to bed and start it up again tomorrow.

So is there any way to reupload the torrent? Lets say that I were to give you original HD footage of Elysian Shadows Revolution 2 (when we release). Could you package that in the same torrent?

No, you would have to make an entirely different torrent. If you just added them it would error out. You /could/ add the new files to the current torrent, and then upload that torrent and have everybody redownload it all... Or you could just make a torrent just for ESR2, and have people download that.

Yeah, I guess we could just have a separate ESR2 torrent. I'll release the HD original once it's on Youtube and let you guys know.

*gasp* is this hinting at a nearing release of ESR2?

If you want to add on to make the torrent larger( add more video files), you can by making a new torrent with the old files included. Everyone who downloaded the old torrent can just download the files to the same folder which the old torrent files was downloaded to, and it will usually skip the predownloaded files once they are recognized by the bittorrent client.
In a summary. If you make a new torrent( and want to keep the old files in the same torrent) just include the old files with the new torrent. If you download the new torrent files into the same directory it shouldn't matter if the old files are included are not( because you won't have to re download them).

I've taken and combined all of the Dev Videos into one LARGE MPEG file.

Size: 2.62 GB
Length: 08:30:00 ( 8hrs & 30min)

So I want your guys' input.
Should I make a torrent?
Should I reformat it to a smaller format( like the original flash files)?
Or should I not make another torrent at all?
