Why bother "simulating" anything. Spoof source addresses of real servers. And since its UDP I dont think theres any handshaking involved. And you have the code that will encrypt the WONid locally (the server code), and you can sniff the outbound packets trivially. Why cant you spam the master list? All I can say is please think this one thru guys.... (But I guess they are, its "testing" at the moment).
