An experiment

I decided to try this just once, so don’t freak out.

I put in a par2 into the latest batch of Ghost Sweeper Mikami. A par2 file contains parity data for every one of the episodes in the torrent. In this case, it contains around 30 megabytes of it. Par2 basically patches a damaged file to fix it. You can patch up to how much of the par2 you have.

I’m not aware if anyone else has tried this, and I have no idea if it’s a good idea or not. So, if it turns out sucking, we’ll rebuild the torrent without the .par2 file. I really see no harm in trying. Feel free to let us know your opinion on this blog or on our IRC channel.

    Where can I find this par2 file that has the latest episodes of Ghost Sweeper Mikami? I’ve already watched the ones that weren’t translated and I’m curious to know what they’re saying!

    The par2 file isn’t a sub file. It’s parity, which repairs damaged files. If we had subs past episode 12 that were complete, they would be released.

    I truly love your blog.. Great colors & theme. Did you create this site yourself? Please reply back as I’m wanting to create my very own website and would like to learn where you got this from or what the theme is named. Thanks!
