I recently uploaded my 5th torrent, so I am still learning. There are 2 sets of music (2 folders). I wanted to correctly label them to make things better, but I screwed up. This torrent includes 2 folders with flac files (and varous fingerprints which do not require any corrections!) http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=44947

I mislabeled the folder including cd2 files as:
1970-10-24.ALL STAR JAM.sbefail.flac16_Tuesday Nite Jam, The Matrix, SF

It should be corrected to show the right date:
1970-10-21.ALL STAR JAM.sbefail.flac16_Tuesday Nite Jam, The Matrix, SF

Is there anything I can do? I would fix things if I knew how. Seems to be fairly popular, too. I know I've got some lumps to take over this... Sorry!

you can re-upload with the corrections and slightly different torrent name and thread name, then press the "http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/images/buttonsttd/report.gif" button in the thread and tell us that you're ready to pull the old one.

people from the old torrent can join on the new one, if the only difference is some renaming then ppl can rename the appropriate files and pick up where they left off & no more mislabelled copies will circulate!

Thanks Five...
When I put up the "fixed" version, is it correct to indicate that it is a reseed? I believe that would apply only if it was exactly the same, but I want to get it right.

Reseeds are for shows that are in the Inactive forum and someone decides to share it again.

I know it has caused an inconvenience to many, but it is not cool to just leave it as if there was no problem. The new torrent is rolling and a few have already jumped on to help reseed. Thanks for pulling the incorrect torrent. Here is the link for the "fixed" version http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=44997

Thanks for all your patience and understanding ;)
