How can this be possible?

I uploaded a torrent. Fine. I had uploaded the same one to another site but before seeding it here I stopped and removed the first torrent.

Then I checked the torrent here. No one had grabbed it but look at the picture of uTorrent.

By an early jump-on (reseed). I've seen it was shared earlier on another place.

or

A torrent with the same hash was removed here some time back and was kept seeding in a member's client. It then re-connects automatically to the re-uploaded torrent.

Thanks for the thoughts, Popper

We'll probably never know. And it was the discrepancy between numbers here and numbers on uTorrent that really puzzled me

[Popper]

Sorry, can't say anything regarding the different stats. That would have needed real time investigation…

[cannonmc]

Popper, you most certainly have better things to do. Most of the time I blame uTorrent as it has a whimsical way of reporting stats

Cannon, Maybe its just me but I feel Utorrent for the past cpl of months is under reporting. The other odd thing I come across quite often with utorrent is I will post a new torrent and you can see people downloading it. 9/10 times after the first cycle I always get a red down arrow. Not sure if when that happens people are still able to download but I dont seem to get credit for it.

[cannonmc]

I can't recall getting a red arrow.

I usually check the site to see how many people are seeding. And I don't think you need to worry about credits.

But have a thumbs-up to add to your collection

But you left thousands more — all identical 864Mb .avi's circulating from around 2011.

That's how, after switching the studios name with its acronym (Active Duty=AD) in the title. There's your match

[cannonmc]

I have no idea what you mean.

The torrent was a freshly made one by me, the upload was a new one by me, I didn't switch the studio's name. That is what I titled the upload as I was posting.
