AniDB only check for the | AniDB only check for the ''highest'' added file for an episode by a group to set states. A timestamp gets set for this episode and if a ''higher'' episode doesn't get released in a defined timeframe it gets set stalled. Adding ''lower'' episodes won't change the timestamp. | ||

There is no data exchange between those groups. Meaning if a series is done by a Team which splits up in the middle of the release and gets finished by 1 of the 2 groups it will only get set '''finished''' instead of '''completed'''.<br>See also: [http://www.anidb.net/tracker/view.php?id=240 AniDB Bugtracker - stronger group relations/virtual groups] | ||
