I know it sends the total upload amount and the total download amount at each announcement. Is there anything else it sends that corresponds to the ratio stats or the seeding time? Like does it send total time the torrent has run for or does the tracker determine this by counting the number of announcements?
Some more things I don't know:
1) Is 'update' and 'announcement' the same thing?
2) Is there an automatic announcement when a torrent download reaches 100% irrespective of the next announcement time? Does this announcement include some special entity or is this just a regular annoucement but with %done = 100% ?
3) Is there an automatic announcement when I stop the torrent in the client? I have read many times to 'stop the torrent before update' but never understoood what it means. Again does this annoucement include any speical entities or is just a regular annoucement?
4) Which values get reset when the torrent is stopped?
Help me please!
