GazelleGames.net - New Private Tracker For Games

May 20, 10 by sharky   6,711  views  

GazelleGames - you probably guessed - is a titillating all-platform games tracker based upon Gazelle RC2 sourcecode. Still in a late developmental stage, GazelleGames began coding about two months ago and is *almost* ready for its initial launch. Here’s what you need to join this incredibly stylist site.

EDIT: (May 26th) - Registration is now open - http://gazellegames.net/register.php

Direct recruitment to GazelleGames.net is being offered through What.cd in this thread (you must be PU or up to access the link). Here’s the pitch:

New games tracker on the ’scene’. In late development, this is the first opportunity for new members to gain access.

 

We track games of all platforms, with an emphasis on making older games more accessible too.

 

Despite only 50 members, of which about 5 are active, we’ve managed to accrue nearly 1000 posts in the last 2 months we’ve been developing.

 

We’d love to get some new members from somewhere we know you’ll be interested in making a contribution, as we take on board any ideas you’ve got to help improve it.

There’s no telling how long this will last, but potential members can get a sneak preview of the tracker in action. (This account has limited access to only certain areas of the site)

Additionally, GGn has an IRC #invites channel:

    Its an aright tracker right now i got an invite from TPS a while ago and i think i will become something good. The Staff is nice and helpful. And the site looks great. I want to see what this tracker will become in the next few months

    BLACK3D, no worries. It won’t be hosted by OVH for very long. The servers will be changing.

    Alright colonel WHOIS/BLACK3D!

    Wasn’t expecting an article to go up so soon after starting promoting. Yet to move the site onto better hosting, the Kimsufi server is for initial seedboxing and the development.

    After initial impression the site looks amazing — for now the tester login stills works. Gazelle FTW!! Any hype for an open registration coming up? Not soo sure if I wanna hit up the invite chan just yet.

    I browsed around with the tester account and it actually looks really good (and I’m a new tracker skeptic by nature). The style sheet is particularly well laid out and the site speed was good as well. Of course there is currently not many torrents, but if the staff are not douche nozzles and can build a good community, these guys could be the first legitimate challenge to BCG I’ve seen.

    Im not joining until there’s open signups or invites available :)

  8. 08   •   Random Says:

    Edit: nvm, invites on TPS.

  9. 09   •   cpx Says:

    The only good thing about them yet is only stylesheet. I doubt this tracker will compete with bitGAMER and BCG, and what about new games any Scene site will beat them unless they have fast upload bot…

    The design looks very good, looks a bit like SCT design and that’s great. I think it will be a great tracker.

    Goodluck !

    * I will enter on the invite channel and try to recive an invite :)

    no i really meant it…why is everybody going down the gazelle road…seriously something is gonna replace this codebase soon…and cmon does every torrent site have to have the same codebase….reallly?..some diversity here people

    DudeDr- “None pities him that is in the snare, who warned before, would not beware”

    “More helpful than all wisdom is one draught of simple pity that will not forsake us”

    Go figure that one out you ignorant, illiterateignorant , nescient, unlearned, unlettered undereducated unschooled, untaught, untutoredunstudied fool…

    dont cross me…im tired and bored

    While he figures that one out RIPSCL you might wanna think about why people choose Gazelle (Not everyone choose Gazelle because it is easy to install and so on) instead of making a fool out of yourself.. ;)

    Anyway, great tracker with a bright future!

    RIPSCL, did you seriously just quote Mary Ann Evans Cross and Robert Herrick from memory, or did you just google some short quotes with the word ‘pity’ in order to form some “pitiful” (yep, see what I did there) rebuttal, in hopes of sounding somewhat intelligent?

    While you continue to make your idiotic point, I can’t help but wonder….why would anyone oppose other sites going with such a great, awesome code-base? It’s the equivalent of some village idiot complaining about others using matches(or lighters perhaps, in this comparison) when he thinks rubbing 2 sticks together is the way it is supposed to be done.

    Now, go figure that one out.

    just joined, looks good but needs more users.

    I was not able to log in suddenly. I was able to log in in a tracker definitely until yesterday.
    I am restored again to GazelleGames Reviews page (toppage) even if I log in from the fake log-in page (wordpress template). Will it be temporary malfunction?

  25. 025   •   Toad Says:

    It seems to have been a temporary problem. It is no problem when I confirmed it few minutes ago.

  26. 026   •   Daedy Says:

    Toad, the server we are hosted on was rebooted without our knowledge, which took the tracker down. There is a query in the code which gets your connectability from a table the tracker manages which is empty when the tracker is dead, thus emptying your session info. This subsequently causes you to get redirected as though you weren’t logged in.

    We’ve rewritten it so this won’t happen again. Also all critical aspects of the site now start automatically with the server (which granted should always have been the case and I hold my hands up to that being laziness on my part).

    Registration seems to be open now (hurry and register!)
