Ratio error on a particular series?
« on: April 08, 2010, 09:04:09 AM »
On of the series I downloaded, _IF_ I am reading the statistics page properly, seems to indicated that I downloaded twice as much MB as the series is long -- by exactly 2:

 Series
   
Ladies versus Butlers! (2009) [Doki][1280x720 h264 AAC]
Seeds /Leechers  Length      Uploaded   Downloaded  my ratio (!?)  not sure what this one is?
    502 / 35    3.76 GB    3.23 GB    7.52 GB    0.4300      .9x


Um 3.76x2 = 7.52, no? it look I somehow got charged double for that one -- but that doesn't make
sense -- I'm running utorrent, and it merges all duplicate requests -- it wouldn't redownload it.

So am I not reading the stats right or is something screwey here? 

Am on my way by the seat of my pants to getting to power-user level and don't need glitches to slow it down! :-)

meanwhile, on other matters -- please download from my client!! :-)
thanks!
A*a

it does indeed look like you downloaded it twice.

Useful information would be good. Did you not read the guidelines for posting in this section?

Ignore this post...I think it's accurate -- not sure how I did it though...my client shows the
2x upload as well...hoisted by my own petard-logs,.... most unseemly.

I do admit to having blond hair...*sigh*.

Are you sure the double downloaded data was credited to your global ratio? It could be a database error for the individual torrent.

not sure about this...would guess so...not keeping track of global number on that basis -- that would be WAY confusing.
