    Hmm... it's supposed to be 1+ gig, eh?

    I believe I shall have to start as soon as possible to have it completed in a timely fashion.

    You SMs should wait. We are torrenting it off of one of our servers, and we'll make it available after that in the members download section.

    What's the hurry anyway? Still gotta wait till Saturday for the PW!

    I may try to get the torrent going tonight so that it can run over night and still have all day tomorrow while I am at work.

    I hope I get to play on saturday. My wife says she is visiting her mother so I may get some time this weekend.

    D'oh! Good point Tempus. I like that plan better. Any idea when it will be there?

    From the POE2 forums:
    Pre-release torrent - Point of Existence Forum

    An admin might want to include some links for BitTorrent applications when they post the downloading instructions.

    BitComet

    It is probably best to encourage people to go ahead and d/l it from the torrent. It will be fast, it won't cost TG anything, and we will be supporting the torrent distribution method by adding ourselves to the list of seeds. Those who have technical difficulties or who don't want to figure out how to use torrents, on the other hand, should just wait for the TG download.

    Did they say someone was going to upload it onto Usenet? That would be best since I can max out my speed. If not I'll wait until you guys upload it here since the speeds here are also pretty fast.

    You still have a while before playing...remember we have a scrim at 3pm EST (when PoE is released) Saturday so you can't play until it's done .

    Yea, server files were uploaded to alt.binaries.games.

    I'll be doing the torrent thing for several days... seeding when I'm not playing.

    You still need the .torrent file to start the download. When someone finds the linkage to that, share it with us here
