Welcome

Welcome to a.scarywater.net; an unlicensed anime fansub BitTorrent tracker.

Supporting the Site



There are various ways to support the site; keeping the torrent open after having finished downloading is one of them. Since running the site also costs quite a bit of money I don´t have as a mere student (hardware and bandwidth), donations are gladly accepted.

THANK YOU !

Server News

01/03/2006

Happy new Year everybody :)
The webserver suffered a hardware outage today; the system was swapped and everything should be in order again. Sorry for the inconvenience. Tracking was not affected.

11/21/2005

There was a webserver outage today. Tracking was not affected. The problem stemmed from a misconfigured ulimit in combination with a daily cron job and (unusually) high load on the web server. It should not happen again.

11/01/2005

Good news, the tracker backend has been replaced -- timeouts should happen no more. It is now running a version of hypercube, for those interested.

10/30/2005

To those that are currently experiencing timeouts on the tracker : the problem is known. The tracker drops some connections -- however, your BitTorrent client will keep retrying until it gets one -- and that should not take long.

A solution is in the works, though not yet ready, as quite some work is involved. On the upside, once it is implemented it should provide considerable headroom :-)

10/28/2005

All right, quite a bit of stuff today :-) First up, the new features.

On to sponsorship; Swift Communications has kindly agreed to sponsor scarywater with a new dedicated server; Please consider them if you are in the market for Webhosting or dedicated servers.
The server (named Talyn) will be used to replace the current tracker machine. Since it is more powerful, this is good news. The move will happen over the next few days and should not cause any disruption in service; the old tracker will forward requests for a few days, just in case there are any hickups.

Some ads have been placed on subpages. If you would not ever consider looking at them, head over to ads section and turn them off again.

There is now an IRC channel dedicated to a.scarywater.net : #scarywater@irc.synirc.org. If you are a fansubbing group and would like to request hosting on this server, please head over there and talk to an op. We enjoy the company :)

That's it for now; as always, have fun ! :)
