Nah, that image was taken when the torrent was first released. I mostly used it to mock Coalgirls for their file sizes, even though it might even be appropriate for such a long series like Cardcaptor Sakura. (1080p is still an upscale.)
Current swarm has 16 seeds.

I'm using their 720p torrent. 33 seeds, 74 leeches. It's not that the torrent itself is slow, it's that I was cursed to live in a house with slow internet.

I pre-ordered a copy of the actual Connect single CD. It was about $14.23. :D

No, it's not appropriate, that's upwards of 1.5GB an episode.

Well, they included the movies, but yes. Some episodes are peaking at 2gb. I somehow failed to calculate it in my head (or check the file list).
But it is Coalgirls, so horribly bloated files are the norm. So stupid. :/

They're a pretty big joke among the rest of the fansubbing community.

He can't just be helping without anything else going on or else this season is going to be very stale.

So I watched blue gender a long time ago, but I stopped at episode 23. I decided to rewatch the series and I finished it tonight...
Episode 26....The fuck did I just see?

coalgirls always has a high file size and I kind of hate that it so huge.

Episode 26....The fuck did I just see? The ending would have been alot better with that that LOL RANDOM SUPER BLUE at the very end haha.
edit: I've decided I'm going to try and rewatch Lucky Star. As long as I watch it before I go to bed, it will probably help me fall asleep faster.
I had forgotten about how half of the entire fucking first episode is about them talking about different ways to eat various foods. Hopefully I'm not driven insane by the time I fall asleep >_>

Why are you watching it to fall asleep? O_o
Edit: Found a better torrent for Cardcaptor Sakura. 12.3 gigs. The Coalgirls file was too big to even fit in my recycle bin >.>
Now I just need to pull myself away from WoW so I can watch anime @_@

lol Coalgirls.
Against my better judgement, I decided to watch the third episode of gosick. Bad idea. Main character is confirmed as absolutely clueless. It's also disappointing that all the clues they give are practically impossible for the viewer to piece together. + Show Spoiler +The purse got lighter? How are we supposed to know when Victorique is the one holding it and she doesn't say a word. Making a surprised face doesn't count. And why the heck are you surprised if you suspected her from the start?
Most of the clues that you can figure out are incredibly simple too. The writing on the wall I figured out. The locked door I figured out. The only thing that stumped me were the identical rooms.
Anyway, this was like the most needlessly convoluted plot for revenge ever created. But it is a mystery show, so I'll cut it some slack there. But seriously, you gave the children you tried to kill a fortune? Smart move. And they made the culprit so goddamn obvious. Worst mystery ever.
I'm all caught up on the Freezing manga. It took about thirty chapters, but the story finally got better. I keep thinking of the Mandelbrot set whenever the Ereinbar set is mentioned though. =/
What episode of LoGH are we on? I'm kinda behind because of homework/job interviews.
Y'know, I'm pretty sure over half of my posts are in this thread. I hardly post anywhere else on TL anymore.

I'm pretty sure he's mentioned it at least ten times in this thread.

Tomorrow we are supposed to watch 61 and 62. Of course, I haven't even watched 57-60 yet 
Busy day tomorrow. Start with school, then I'll use the afternoon to catch up to LoGH, then new Madoka, IS, and Yumekui Merry.
IS better stop being stupid -_-

IS won't get better (harem-wise) until stuff with Germany happens. I don't even know if it'll get better within the span of this season.
The whole bw streaming drama kinda reminds me of fansubbing drama, lol.
By the way, how good is Kaiji compared to Akagi? I've never watched it, but consider me interested.
+ Show Spoiler [MADOKA] +Confirmed in ep 4, apparently: ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/PcgIS.jpg) LOL ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/IHlJJ.jpg)

Since you said it got better later (allegedly), I've been sticking it out. I hope that it doesn't stay shitty for too long though.
And omg, now the wait for Madoka 4 is gonna be even harder >.<
Edit: Was that manga some doujin?

"Later", iirc, means like three volumes in or something. But I have no idea how fast or slow the series is moving since I'm relying on secondhand info. Anyway, I'm sticking it out because I have a huuuuge tolerance for bad shows. Don't force yourself to watch the show on my account.
Personally, I think that outfit is horrible. It's split in the middle for no apparent reason. Reminds me of curtains or something.
And of course it's a doujin. You think Madoka would make the yuri undertones that obvious?
