I am now collecting PMs regarding videos that were not exclusive to The Professional Awards, that have been released online, or that have been witnessed at other conventions. In order to avoid lots of DQ posts and much confusion, I'll post a single DQ list here and include it in the Category Selection email, this coming Thursday.

I would like to go on the record and state that releasing it as a SPLIT rar was not a very bright idea and TONS of people are having issues and I'm having to spend time helping the ppl I know that are having issues. Just having one massive torrent (and another for the 18+) would have been better...PLEASE do that next year.

I will admit when I tried to open the rar files it failed at first and I thought the files were jacked up... gave me a error saying the 2nd file was not found or something. I had to open it up within the winrar application and only then it worked.

I do agree 1 file would have been much easier and hopefully everyone will be able to get the files to work.

One file would have been 7 GB and would have failed for anyone with a 4 GB file limit.

I am sorry the concept of split archives has caused this much trouble. I honestly thought they'd been around for over a decade and nobody would have any trouble.

Daric... maybe something a little buggy because at first I was like why isn't it working. Within the actual winrar application it worked just fine.

I'm preparing a new torrent with individual files with songs and artists and sources instead of an archive.

This will take me the rest of tonight. Look for an email in the morning.

I personally have discontinued seeding the existing archive.

I didn't have an issue and I've already downloaded/watched the videos with no problems. I'll keep seeding in case there are people who are currently downloading that don't want to start downloading a new torrent.

I'm still seeding the original as well. My ancient version of WinRAR (I don't know if I've updated it since building this PC back in 2005) got it on the first try, but you must open Part 1 and not Part 2.

I'm having problems downloading parts 1 and 2 from the direct links. Are they down right now?
No matter what, stay calm, stay cool and live life to the fullest.
Plus as Gene would say always go big in life.
