========

settime0 is a wrapper for ntpdate(8). A symlink named settime pointing to the most recent version of settime should be placed in a directory that is in the PATH.


PROCEDURE
---------

- Set the default options
-
- Read the config file
-

-
-
- Build the initial list
-
- Remove any unwanted sites from the list (I need to change this from removing specifically Microsoft sites to removing sites that math a particular RegEx.
-
- Choose the NRC sites (I need to change this from choosing specifically NRC sites to choosing sites that match a particular RegEx.
-
- Choose the least often picked (inverse weighted random)
-
    - read each candidate's 'pick' stats
    - inverse the ticket quantities
        - if anyone has a 0 weight, give everyone an additional ticket
- Choose sites with the most hits (weighted random)
-
    - read each candidate's 'success' stats
        - if anyone has a 0 weight, give everyone an additional ticket
- Choose sites with best hit/pick ratio (weighted random)
-
    - read each candidate's 'success' stats
        - if anyone has a 0 weight, give everyone an additional ticket
- Shuffle the chosen
-
- Simulate a success
-
- Update the stats
-
- Output the stats to screen (for testing)
-
- Write stats to file
