    R2K,

    when can we expect today's game up? no rush mate...and your 'avi' encoder...it's not very efficient...maybe try another one?...the newest divx ones could probably compress a 2 hour game in 700mb...anyway...keep up the good work...

    R2K, thank you so much for your hard work! You are a legend around this BBS. We are lucky to have you doing all the time-consuming work for us. As a fan from Canada, your vids are sometimes my only source to watch the game. I just couldn't thank you enough! My toast to your health! :)

    keep an eye on this link.

    http://thepiratebay.org/user/Rockets2k/

    I already have a couple vids on it, the game might be finished in enough time to post before I have to leave around 6pm....if not, I'll post it there later tonight when I get back. I will post a new thread for them when I am fully done, but that is my user page at piratebay which will list everything I have using their tracker.

    Im working on solving some issues that have popped up because of the huge demand, please just be patient and know that Im working at making it easier on all of us.

    btw...I am also posting them on my tracker( http://www.rocketredrockers.net:6969/index.html ) as a backup, but the primary trackers are PB's, it will only switch to mine if PB's go down.

    Yesssss!!!!!!

    This link is working for me!!!!

    Yours and Batkins links haven't worked fro me since the beginning of last season... something to do with me not being able to access the tracker, or something.

    Will you be posting all the games to the Pirate Bay account???

    yes

    Given the choice between having my server get plastered with 8000 peer requests and using someone else's...I'll gladly use theirs.

    Getting hit that bad was affecting my business traffic in a negative way.

    btw...Spurs prepost and full game just hit PB.

    Thanks 2k

    Actually, this pirate bay thing may save me a lot of hassle finding some episodes of shows that I missed as well.

    Pretty cool little site :)

    I'm in Denver and this year I've got League Pass, so the pre and post game interviews would be my vote for this year.

    Last season and in seasons past I have subsisted on your generosity.
    Thanks R2K.

    Full game and highlights are the best, really the pre and post games vids, imo.

    Sticky,

    I would give up my bonus to see the Rockets full video, since I just relocated from Houston to Calgary.

    I've downloaded the past few preseason games using BitTorrent, and this is the first time I've ever used any kind of torrent, btw.

    Anyways, it takes about 2-3 days to download a game. Is that normal? Right now I'm downloading the game against the Thunder. I started downloading it at about 1:00 pm and it's now 10:19 pm and it's only 45.3% done. I have a high-speed, cable connection, so I figured it'd be faster than this.

    Can anyone help me out?

    Beggars can't be choosers. I appreciate anything and everything you're doing. Whatever you can do, you know we're all very grateful (I hope).

    Thunder game just finished downloading! This is my first chance to watch the new squad in action. Watching on PS3 now. The quality is AMAZING!!! I'm glad the consensus was larger file size/better quality....

    I will seed like crazy all season. :D :p ;)
