Yes, if you have a seedbox or something please host a few random parts! I have three or four hosted pieces and there aren't too many peers.

Is there any way to tell which torrents have fewer seeds, without having to add them all to my client?

I would like to know as well.

See my other post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14870697

That's brilliant; nice work! Will try to seed some soon.

I wasn't able to figure out a way so I just picked a few at random. Is there an easy way to roll up like a heroku app or something that would check the health of only those torrents? That could be really useful to the libgen guys.

I couldn't find anything, so I ended up making it myself using TorrentSniff.

Most of the trackers seem to be down, so it's just getting data from tracker2.wasabii.com, and even that is pretty slow, so it'll take a while to fetch for all 1693 torrents.

I wrote a script that pings the tracker and keeps regenerating a static HTML file, so it'll keep updating itself, though not very fast.

Just saw this, thanks! Super cool.
