MAME Intro Movies 106 *out now

I've been using ---No torrents please - thanks!--- this whole time, but would like to switch to [romsite name redacted]. Do I have to download the entire pack if I switch over? 

Also- I read all about getting 'poop'-listed for leeching. IF I were to switch over, I'd have to download a HUGE file my first round. How do I do that and NOT get on the list as a leecher?  Or, will they allow me to download that HUGE file, then turn around and seed it back up for a while so that my ratio is back in order?

Can someone walk me through this process please?  I'd appreciate it!

No you don't have to start over. Create a folder called "MAME098 Game AVI Previews" and move all your current folders inside of it keeping each set in is currently named folder. Then point the torrent to the "MAME098 Game AVI Previews" folder. When the torrent starts it should say hash checking and then start at about 75%, give or take depending on how many sets you already have.

eyal8r:
SWEET!  Thanks!

Now- what about the seeding/leeching part?  How do I avoid getting listed as a leecher?  Can I download the next pack, and then turn around and upload it back up to gete my ratios in check, or- upload/seed first, then download?

Also- on the same topic- if noone uses me to download from while i'm seeding, does it still count towards my ratio, or only when someone is currently downloading off of me?

eyal8r:
ok silly question here- but- I'm confused.

When I goto the [romsite name redacted] site- which file do I choose to do this? There seems to be 4 or 5 different torrent files to download.  If I already have the other packs from the other site, which file do I choose to update with any new packs that come out?
Thanks

There is just one torrent file currently titled
MAME098 Game AVI Previews #-M
Once you have finished updating your pack, just leave it running for anyone else to download from.  Unfortunately that pack doesn't have the latest N,O,Q yet.
Remember to have all those individual folders inside a main folder
MAME098 #0-9
MAME098 A
etc
etc
otherwise you'll end up downloading it all again
