Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be removed soon with ios emulation and retro handhelds bringing so much attention to roms and these sites

qbittorrent shows you how many seeders each part of the file has. Archivists can prioritise the parts with the least.

Assuming those come to the rescue and quick enough before the last one abandons the seed without looking if someone is leeching the last part to make a 100% completion possible.

Look mate. We all know every once in a while a torrent dies or will be incomplete for ever. There’s no denying that.

That’s not a different or added risk vs a website.

The only change is that it’s significantly easier to keep an archive going.
