BitGamer

Can anyone access http://bitgamer.com ?

It has been down for the past day or so when I've tried to access it. Underground gamer is still up and running though and some members are also saying they cannot access it either. Lets hope it's all ok.

The most valuable part of bitgamer has to be it's weekly update NDS scene release torrent.

I couldn't access it all day yesterday either. I just wanted to log in there to keep my account active as I haven't been to that place for a while. Tried several times yesterday, but no response from it. Hope it's ok.

Erk, luckily I golt the latest NDS set just before the weekend. Hope it is still there, but if it isn't there are alternatives....

Anyone able to access Bitgamer today? All my DLs from there are sitting at 0 and I can't get on the site. I'm suspecting the server is down or something (but I was sailing a bit close to the wind in terms of my ratio).

No. I haven't been able to access neither the site or the tracker since friday. It's not the first time it's been down for days lately either.

Works fine now.

Hang in there for news on our new blazing fast server and new host!

Bit Gamer was down a lot of last week for me. They keep having a lot of problems, and I expect it is due to the nature of their torrents. Unlike UG which mainly has smaller older system collections, BG has some quite huge torrents and trackers can easily become overloaded by such large torrent files. Pleasuredome had similar problems recently too, where the current MAME extras set had so many files in the set that the tracker crashed! They have since fixed that problem though.

Nice, cheers.

Curse my temper and lack of patience.... the DS romset had a name-system change. I spent a while faffing about with torrentzip and clrmamepro and the dat file to rename them all but gave up - backed the old set up to external HDD and just set out to DL the whole (newly renamed and updated) torrent again. Bit wasteful (ho ho, geddit?) but it's all included in the monthly ISP fee.

I was having a PM discussion with Toomanymikes about bitgamer, and it's on the blink again.

Anyone else managed to get in there recently?
