Hmmm, beats me....enough complete seeds, torrent is working, so no reason why it should stop. The problem must be at your end I'm afraid. But don't ask me where...

Not sure if anyone will be particularly interested in this or not, but I went into the Japan Centre in London today and, amongst other things, ended up buying a 1.5 litre bottle of Ayaya's famous Gogo tea (the one with the fancy red label). It cost me a grand total of £3.72!!!

Ooof! It was not nice. Not at all. Give me Lipton's Lemon Ice Tea over this stuff any day of the week.

Lol. I suspected as much. Is it too sugary?

I had a similar experience. I bought an overpriced bottle of milktea and it tasted really watered down.

Kreuz_Asakura: Sorry to know you've got difficulty downloading the file. I can see you've been stuck there for hours now. But it doesn't seem other leechers have the same problem, so like Matt said, there's most likely something wrong at your end. Maybe you can have the client recheck the hash, or maybe just try to use some other client? You can also try to post this in the tracker troubleshooting forum or the tech forum for help.

a 1.5 litre bottle of Ayaya's famous Gogo tea (the one with the fancy red label).

Is it this one? The site says the official price for 1.5L is 330 Yen, which is about £1.42. It seems around $6 (£3) in the states, say, here, here, and here. (The milk tea has the same price as the straight tea.)

Btw, Ayaya in glasses (as seen on Kirin's Gogo no Kocha main page) :

Around where I live, I sometimes buy the 500ml version of the stuff. I kinda like it, and for $1.50, its not too huge of a mark up :good:

Try the "Special" Milktea version if you can though, IMHO its the best!

as for 午後の紅茶, i'm not a fan of the ストレートティー (red label). that was actually the first one i tried. there are a lot of drinks with that kind of..."taste"?...in Japan. next, i tried the レモンティー (yellow label), and that tasted a lot better. it's pretty much just like the ストレートティー, but the lemon "flavor" takes away from the bitterness. last, i tried the ミルクティー (white label/"milky"). this is my favorite 午後の紅茶! it's probably because it's the "sweetest" of the three and doesn't really have that bitter taste. i still have yet to try any of the Special blends (the two with the longer bottle necks).

Yep! That's the one alright.

Next time I visit the Japan Centre, I'll try the yellow one.

Oh, god yes. Imagine if you boiled a pot of tea, let it stew for 5 minutes, added a whole cup of sugar and some red food colouring before pouring. I guess I'm just used to western iced teas which always seem to come with a peach or lemon flavour.

Wow! I'm really looking forward to the DVD! I think it was mentioned before, but I'm shocked that there are no bad/crazy costumes! Thanks for the preview!

Sorry, couldn't see your pic (stupid IT firewall) so I had to guess. The Bond theme rocks though. :ph34r:

Nice guess, though. :wub:

We'll probably just stare at each other until Matt comes back and tells us to stop playing with his idol.

Yes, I'd say that Ayaya-reward is so precious that there's no backing down.
