// receiving them can have a fighting chance at joining the room.
// These servers are called "candidates" at this point because
// it is unclear whether they are going to be useful to actually
// join in the future.
//
// We pick 3 servers based on the following criteria:
//
// Server 1: The highest power level user in the room, provided
// they are at least PL 50. We don't calculate "what is a moderator"
// here because it is less relevant for the vast majority of rooms.
// We also want to ensure that we get an admin or high-ranking mod
// as they are less likely to leave the room. If no user happens
// to meet this criteria, we'll pick the most popular server in the
// room.
//
// Server 2: The next most popular server in the room (in user
// distribution). This cannot be the same as Server 1. If no other
// servers are available then we'll only return Server 1.
//
// Server 3: The next most popular server by user distribution. This
// has the same rules as Server 2, with the added exception that it
// must be unique from Server 1 and 2.
// Rationale for popular servers: It's hard to get rid of people when
// they keep flocking in from a particular server. Sure, the server could
// be ACL'd in the future or for some reason be evicted from the room
// however an event like that is unlikely the larger the room gets.
// Note: Users receiving permalinks that happen to have all 3 potential
// servers fail them (in terms of joining) are somewhat expected to hunt
// down the person who gave them the link to ask for a participating server.
// The receiving user can then manually append the known-good server to
// the list and magically have the link work.
