Regarding SHERLOCK.

[hsavinien]

Dear F-List,

Kindly either put your Sherlock remarks under a cut or tell me how to get hold of it in the U.S. because otherwise I'm going to have to drop you from my friendslist for bloody spoilers.  Thank you.

How do you feel about torrenting? I've got invites to thebox.bz, if you'd like one.

I live slightly south of the back of the beyond, so I'm not sure I've got the bandwidth. Does it take a lot?

[kalijean]

I'm honestly not sure. If I'm downloading it does slow my internet up a touch. But it usually downloads in an hour or so, sometimes less. (And this one does the keeping a good ratio requirement, so they ask you to seed once you're done.) But they have their torrents up within minutes, usually, of an episode ending. It was my go-to after I moved out of Britain to keep up with Doctor Who and Top Gear :D

the keeping a good ratio requirement, so they ask you to seed once you're done - I'm not entirely sure what this means.

Check The pirate bay. Torrents tend to chew bandwidth but that just translates to slower downloads. set it to download over night. you can always resume the next night. I like Vuez myself for my torrent client.

[kalijean]

Oh! Sorry. It means you keep the torrent going, so other people can download parts of the file from you in turn. Basically, they ask that you give back some of what you get.

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

Ahh... Well, it'd likely be on overnight downloading anyway, so that wouldn't be too much of a problem.

[kalijean]

Okay :) They send their invites only via email. If you'd like one, to what address would you like it?

kyria underscore thalia at hotmail dot com, please! Thanks. ^_^

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the suggestions, Fergus. How goes?

[kalijean]

Sent! Have fun and you're so welcome. I hope that solves the spoiler problem :D

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

Hmm, doesn't seem to have arrived. kyria_thalia in case that was unclear.

[kalijean]

Trying again!

Oh no, poor Sav! One of my local friends managed to watch it, I could ask her what her methods are? I'm sure it wasn't on telly, the Beeb never gets things to us that quickly.

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's not vetted for BBC America 'til IDK, Mayish. I got ep1 now though.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Alas! I shall speak with Chelsea directly.

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

I got the first episode from another friend now, but thanks.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

How many episodes are there?

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

There will be three? Second ep came out yesterday, but I'm good for now. I can't watch 1 'til tomorrow anyway because bed.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Oh. Okay. I meant out so far, but that works too.

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

Cheers. 'night, Bubbles.
