As you know, with the help of Peter I was also able to create an own version of "tl-best-winserver" with the same calculation scheme so that we can use this tool directly on the client side as well and already decide there which server should be preferred when connecting. Since we are working with this functionality for a while now we found out that the "Rating" values calculated by "tl-best-winserver" sometimes are negative while they should usually ruffly correspond to the number of users a server could still host.
