<![CDATA[Free leech counted towards my download ratio?]]>I downloaded stuff from a torrent that had like 8 minutes left for free leech. It downloaded in less but when i refreshed I noticed the entire amount was added to my download. I've downloaded free leech before and it has not added to my download amount. Has this happened to anyone before? Did I miss something?

So if the freeleech timer runs out while you are still downloading (or just before your client sends its next update), everything reported after the timer ends counts as normal download. That is most likely what happened here with only 8 minutes left on the clock. Best practice: grab freeleech torrents early in the window, not in the last minutes. If your numbers still look wrong to you, open a ticket via Support and we will check your account.

After the new design dropped the site is constantly pinging and refreshing every few seconds, this could be used to make the freeleech badge update in real time. Currently it is loaded once and the time will not update until you reload the page. I think it is possible that you kept the torrent page open for a while before actually downloading so when you actually added the torrent to your client it was already much closer to the freeleech deadline.

Just me guessing, though.
