No, not exactly. Each zone gets divided into the 5 sub-zones. Within each sub-zone it's then doing the "preference for high netspeed servers" thing. The division into the 5 sub-zones is entirely random though. (When there are less than $minimum servers in a zone then it's just duplicated for the 5 sub-zones). - ask -- http://develooper.com/ - http://askask.com/ _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
