 which I hope goes someway to showing the reliability of my network.

 I just wanted to clarify here - the list you linked to in that tweet was
 an opt-in whitelist. Anyone could opt-in, and we specifically contacted
 operators of stable relays with at least a few megabits of bandwidth.

 Then we ran a script that ranked the opt-in list of relays by bandwidth,
 checked them for reliability, and selected the top 100. That produced the
 0.2.8.5-rc list of fallback directories:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/or/fallback_dirs.inc

 The Brass Horn relays aren't on the fallback list for 0.2.8.5-rc, because
 the bandwidth cutoff was ~6 Mbps, and the Brass Horn relays that were
 opted in were below that.
