Alrighty. Looks like, unless my internet or endchan gives me trouble with the size of a few of these files, we are ready to begin.

This part really should've been the simple story--at least for the comments, it should've been simple, if a little slow . What was supposed to be a backup effort in case other anons failed turned into a nightmare as I was beset by numerous, almost supernatural failures.
>Okay got new computer going diligently on comments with my old computer working as well it should be
<old computer loses power randomly.
>Well, it had a slightly damaged power connector socket, but eh, I can enlist one of the others

<Works okay (as long as I don't have it try to take a mess of pictures anyway) but power supply gets usually hot and I don't trust it.
<New computer... it's screen broke, one quarter of it offline down. For no reason. NOTHING WAS SAT ON IT. I JUST CLOSED IT ONCE AND WHEN I OPENED IT LOOKED LIKE IT HAD BEEN CRUSHED ON ONE SIDE!
<Old old computer boots okay then freezes
This was on top of my normal internet issues which limited my ability to download a large media files. So I was constantly swaping between different computers, Linux USBs and other set ups just trying to keep the operation going and what I have got a little disorganized as a result.

Here is what was supposed to be the main operation. I was using one of the lists that was posted to /mlp/ (15000 or so I believe) and split it up into blocks that I could have running in parallel. In the ideal version of this plan, each block would've been first swept for comments, then metadata, then as a bonus I would've tried to save a pic of every video's YT page before it got deleted if my internet would corporate. (I tried nodejs and a ancient firefox extension, grabthemall, The former had problems with my USBs and the latter worked but failed to capture all but the freaking video itself on a unloaded page and then froze the computer) I did due some metadata test sweeps though I don't think I have a full block.

Anyway, here is 10.000 or so video comments. A small but not insignificant minority are blank. The double block names (block9_10 onward) were when I merged the remaining blocks together to save time, power failure or internet issues prevented me from completing these list fully. Something I found during this was that if a video simply didn't have any comments it would still write a blank .json file and thus not interfere with the multiDownloader script but if it had been COPPA'd there would be no json file to write and would break the script (which I did already fix in it).

Ignore the current naming scheme of "metaBlocks" just doing this to try to play nice with endchan and keeping it relatively tidy and even.
