HOW to be the "winner" of that race to be THE FIRST UPLOADER!!!

Pawpcorn

In that vein (of just HOW to be the "winner" of that race to be the first uploader…) What to do??

Could I make some suggestions?

If YOU and another member are racing to upload a NEW VIDEO, that's just been released... and you OFTEN find yourself thwarted by that other member, beating you by just by a matter of minutes [so FRUSTRATING, right??] I think the following ideas could work for you:

You COULD just upload the bare-bones version of the torrent presentation, (Title and tiny Description ONLY) to start with. This gets the upload date and time established.
Then, (to avoid your upload being reported by other members for missing description and pictures, and [remotely] risking loss of your Auto-Approval Rights) ASAP!!! Repeatedly EDIT your upload…
ADD a GOOD description, and revise the title, if needed… and...
for starters, maybe add just ONE good picture… NOW, you've followed the basic rules. THEN, you can take your time creating screen-caps, and then (AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO AVOID OTHER MEMBERS UPLOADING PICTURES BEFORE YOU)..
ADD ALL your lovely pictures… perhaps even deleting the original picture you had uploaded, earlier. NOTE that pictures added via editing your torrent will be added in reverse order to the way they are shown in the final torrent presentation; thus LAST picture added… will be the FIRST picture displayed.

What do you think of this idea?

If you needed help deleting sub-par pictures already added to your torrent prior to YOU being able to upload good pictures, [on a limited basis, please] you could PM me click here to PM me or PM your favorite staff member, and we'll do our best to review your torrent presentation pictures, and edit (delete sub-par pictures) as requested and needed.

Take care,

the suggestions are good ones and viable that can immensely help to be the winner in the uploading race

There was an exciting movie that I wanted to be first to upload, so I turned on QTM and filled in all of the relevant information and pictures but waited until it finished downloading from the source. Did a quick check to ensure it played and had the correct subtitles and time as listed, then hit that button. That was fun!

Someone else did upload the same movie within a very short time, but with a different file format and size - so we both won anyways
