Let's face it, http://www.pool.ntp.org/scores/63.240.161.99 is a lousy server, 
often being discarded as a false-ticker.  But because of its high declared 
bandwidth, it often makes to the first server in a DNS query.

My suggestion is to have in place a more stringent pruning process for such 
high-bandwidth servers.  This could be done by making the points deducted from 
the server proportional to the declared bandwidth.  This way, a high-bandwidth 
server would be discarded more easily than a low-bandwidth one, thus improving 
the quality of the pool by making sure that mostly high quality time servers 
are available.
