Hi, let me know if this is obviously stupid and won't work. I'm an old pirate but obviously still pretty uneducated. I've got a dead torrent that's a collection of roms. 4 seeders, 800 abandoned peers (ungrateful basterds). Seeders are rarely online or can't provide more than 8% after a week. The roms are pretty mainstream and it's strange for this torrent to have been abandoned.

If I can find find the exact releases of as many roms as possible in the collection from other singular sources, can I resurrect this torrent by just copy+overwrite into the unfinished folder? is it that simple or is this hubris? am I too old to be this stupid?

I'm been 99% on an FF7 soundtrack torrent (only one song incomplete) and have been seeding for like 6 months lol.

Maybe you can search for the track in soulssek. Get one that matches in size, rename it and try to recheck the torrent. Or if you are lucky you can get the file with the same name already and only recheck.
