Hi, let me know if this is obviously stupid and won’t work. I’m an old pirate but obviously still pretty uneducated. I’ve got a dead torrent that’s a collection of roms. 4 seeders, 800 abandoned peers (ungrateful basterds). Seeders are rarely online or can’t provide more than 8% after a week. The roms are pretty mainstream and it’s strange for this torrent to have been abandoned.

If I can find find the exact releases of as many roms as possible in the collection from other singular sources, can I resurrect this torrent by just copy+overwrite into the unfinished folder? is it that simple or is this hubris? am I too old to be this stupid?

      you know, I honestly just assumed it’s not allowed because that’s what I was used to on reddit. the rules here seem much more relaxed but I feel like I should be semi-discreet so they stay that way
