As stated in Please login or register to view this link we will work some more with alternative download sources on top of Rapidshare. Mediafire is the first one and has proven itself to be a decent service for people outside Europe, while Rapidshare is still working the best inside Europe.
This thread is for the people who are willing to help us out since the upload speed on Mediafire is kinda low. We already did a thread on uploading shows to Medafire, which you can find Please login or register to view this link. This was a huge success which will be continued here.
Here is the new list of popular bootlegs, waiting to be uploaded to Mediafire:
*********
What you should do if you want to help
1) Choose one or more of the shows above to upload (read the latest posts to make sure no one is uploading these shows yet)
2) Report in this thread which shows you are going to upload for other people who are willing to upload too.
3) Download the shows from Rapidshare (or Megaupload if possible) to your hard drive. Make sure you don't upload an existing copy on your hard disk, bootlegs here change a lot due to upgrades and additions and we want to make sure the exact copy is uploaded.
4) Upload the files toPlease login or register to view this link, I recommend to first create a free account if you don't have that yet, it will give you the possibility to see what files you uploaded.
5) Paste in this thread the download URL's of the shows you uploaded, when a crew member stops by he will add your uploads to the download-options on the bootleg page.
Note: rules above are changed contrary to the previous thread! We don't work anymore with the ** marks and rule 3 is extended.
Note two: You can upload up to 10 files at once at Mediafire, makes you able to upload 5 bootlegs at once.
Note three: If a show has multiple sources, please upload them all to Mediafire and tell us in this topic which download URL belongs to which source.
Thanks a lot! With your help we can make our whole collection available on Mediafire.
