Hi Eddie,
my bwauth has consistently rated your relay around 1000 for months. I
think this is just the kind of network connectivity you offer to some
parts of the world. This is not a problem for the bwauth system in
principle, we have them spread across the world a bit to see how well a
relay works in different places.
A certain amount of flag flapping is normal in Tor. For your relay, my
dirauth has these values:
+MTBF 103 0.00010 S=2020-10-31 20:19:00
+WFU 103 106
This gives a WFU of 0.9716, which means I don't consider your relay a
guard currently. Once your WFU raises, you will be considered a guard
again.
Cheers
Sebastian
