Blackcats-Games.net is the best dedicated games torrent tracker out there. It tracks several thousand windows and console games. Obviously, it is not easy to get into and the tracker had signups closed for a long time and later the admins decided to close the invite based signups too. Now here is the good news; although you may not notice it, the Blackcats-Games is accepting new signups. You just have to be there at the right time. That is easier said than done though.
The tracker opens signups for very brief periods of time (Seconds actually). At other times it will display the following message:
"Max users have been reached for the current time period. Have some cocoa, watch the sun rise (or set), and come back. Nature is beautiful. You might get lucky."
Even if you miraculously get the signup form on first try, you will have less than 9 seconds to fill the form; if you are late, you will be treated with a similar message. Now you may think it is impossible to signup. It is not; at least with a few nice addons for Firefox it isn't.
1. Download Check4Change FireFox extension from here. For more information on this addon visit here. Check4Change (aka C4C) is a simple extension that allows you to periodically check a web-page for updates.
2. Download AutoFormer FireFox extension from here. For more information on this addon visit here. AutoFormer loads saved data in forms.
3. Visit http://www.blackcats-games.net/ and click on the Register link. (Directly accessing signup page would not work.)
4. You will be taken to the page with 'max user limit reached' message. Now select the message text or message heading ("Signup failed!"), right click --->Check4Change-->Custom. Enter 3 seconds in the "Refresh and check every.." field under "Check Interval". Also tick "Dont refresh while viewing page" button.
5. Check4Change will now refresh the page every 3 seconds to detect any changes. Within 15 mins it will detect the signup form being loaded and notify you. Now take your time and fill each and every field (Except the captcha) carefully. Double check everything and make sure you tick everything. Note on Email - Blackcats will not accept popular free email addresses. If you have an ISP provided address, use it. If you don't, gawab.com mail seems to work fine.
6. Before you click submit, Go to FireFox Edit menu-->Autoformer--> click "save all fields". Now press submit. You will be greeted with "Max user limit reached' message again. Do not worry this is normal.
7. Repeat steps 3 and 4 once more and wait till Check4Change to detect a change. This time be on high alert. The moment it detects the signup form being loaded, switch to the tab immediately. Autoformer will automatically load the values previously entered. This saves you valuable seconds. Quickly fill the captcha (no spaces when filling two words) and hit submit. You should get confirmation email within 30 minutes. If you still get "Max user limit reached' , that means you were too late. Repeat steps 3,4 and 7.
Now that was more fun than playing Crysis, wasn't it?
Note: Read the Rules and FAQ of the tracker immediately after you get in. Dont breach the rules and give something back to the community.
Good Luck.
