I'm pretty layman about it, once I downloaded a torrent that gave me 10 gb of UL. but most just give me kb
Which torrent criteria provide the most UL points?

I've suggested this approach several times before, and I stand by it:
- The point of downloading a FreeLeech torrent is to get something other people will want to download - AND - to be one of the people that they download it FROM!
The thing to remember about FreeLeeches is that, while the download is free, it's the upload (that still counts) that you're looking for! That, and because a lot of people NEED upload credits, they are VERY POPULAR to download!
So you look at FreeLeech items available right now: the vast majority of them already have TONS of seeders - and may or may not still have leechers.
MOST OF THE FREELEECH torrents you see right now will not help you!
- After you download the content, you're in competition with dozens or even hundreds of others who are also seeding it already! (As you'll see below: they beat you to the punch!)
- Because it's been FREELEECH for a while already, MOST of the people who want it, already have it! So the number of leechers coming on NOW is likely to be low.
So, when IS it a good time to get in on the FREELEECH wagon?
ONLY AT THE START!
When you get in on a FREELEECH at the START of the period in which it's going to be free, there won't be many (usually) seeders yet - and the number of leechers will likely grow quickly. Get in there, get your files, and YOU can be one of those "at the start" who are seeding to dozens of leechers simultaneously.
If you actually want the content - FREELEECHes are good anytime...
If you want seed points from FREELEECHES, get in EARLY - otherwise, there's too much competition. It won't HURT you, but it won't help you the way you want it to, either.
Finally: if the goal is to seed, don't worry about the contents - if the new FREELEECH is masked Asian porn with Sumo Wrestlers - and that's not your thing - STILL download it at the start of the FREELEECH period! You can delete it later, but you want to be EARLY so that the people who DO want this content GET IT FROM YOU!
I hope this helps....

@setecho look at the seeder/leecher ration on each freetorrent. if you have 120 seeders and 3 leechers you won't be getting anything out of the torrent. if it's a fresh torrent that is just getting distributed with like 10/80 then chances are good that you will be uploading a lot more.
