Well, for the model we're talking about where the server is totally 
overloaded, by definition all clients are misbehaving from the 
perspective of the server.  So, just send a KoD to all of them, and 
you keep sending KoDs to every single new client from which you 
receive a query packet.

Where the server is not totally overloaded, you do whatever selection 
process you'd do today.


I don't see where the problem is.
