You shouldn't have to rename any of those after they are created.

I'm not familiar with uTorrentPro, but you do want to click the Private Tracker box. You do NOT want to check the box to start seeding right away. That is because you will upload the .torrent to this site, then you will download the torrent file from the thread you create and you will use it to seed the show. That torrent file that you download will have a private key in it that is used to keep track of your tracker stats. I don't think it matters about preserving the file order, but I don't think you want to check the encryption one.
Thank you graciously for the reply! You clarified the vast majority of my curiosities.

I'm now at 95% Go Mode, my last bit of concern would be once I've uploaded to the tracker, that the downloaded .torrent file destination folder I choose should indeed be the same upload source (.torrent) folder for the seeding to begin properly/complete without 99% errors, etc...

If I could prevail upon you for some final clarification pertaining to the above, that will have me at 100% (I hope... ).

Again, infinite thanks for the enlightenment!!
