Plenty of decent encodes from source @ TL.

They didn't disappoint anyone.
It was public knowledge it was destined to fail, even before it opened. You just had to read their manifesto, with all those sounding adjectives.

yeah i didnt really expect them to succeed but i knew they claimed to be the replacement for ScT and i hadnt kept track so i was just curious... tho i wasnt ever a part of ScT so a replacement has never actually mattered to me lol all i know is there was a lotta hype and disappointment about it and its unfortunate demise

i think the x (lol) was just a replacement for scenelife (scl)

TL is a brilliant tracker in that it was the original home of imagine, stg... so many p2p cam/TS groups, it's hard to imagine a p2p scene without it. But the whole thing was heavily saturated with want-to-be-encoders - ofcourse let them try, but when you consider AutoGK as your encoder of choice you hardly understand the entire process of deinterlacing, decimation, colour spaces... then there's the basic fact that there's only one or two groups to be supplying the key components of a cam and line audio, so ultimately you have the same files just being re-encoded over and over and over...
