So, at a LAN party, I took the liberty of busting out the old lget -a via my Lunar fileserver, and found that many of the mirrors did not give me anything, and after 5 tries, it'd die, and move to the next module. Also...None of the last resort mirrors worked. As there is no (lunar url here)/lunar/cache directory as far as I could tell. I ran lin theedge, lin lunar, and lin moonbase in that order before doing anything else. Yet, when I tried to lin my moonbase again, it hung after the md5 sum thingy. Is it just the network I'm on? Another thing....In the Lunar menu....When I tried to select an LRESORT mirror, it flashed, and for a split second I could make out something that said something about 1 argument given, needs 2 or something of the like. I'm pretty sure these aren't bugs, rather something I'm not doing right.

just like it says - it's a last resort attempt. The lunar cache mirrors (use http://download.lunar-linux.org/lunar/cache/ BTW) are NOT complete at all. As a matter of fact, there are only a few tarballs in there usually - the ones that are most important.

If you cannot find a source and all mirrors in a module give problems, please file a bugreport in the usual way.
