Hi Festafarian,

As you are finding out, if you get onto an older torrent with fewer peers, it is hard to get your ratio up. That's because not as many people need the data from you. If you get onto a 'newer' torrent, one that has lots of leechers, then they will need the data from you and your upload will increase and thus your ratio (upload / download) will increase.

One thing I always do.... right before bed, I check to see which of the torrents that I have on my drive need a seed (or have more leechers than seeders) and I set my computer up to only upload at it's max all night long. This really helps with my ratio.
