 BW> It appears to select NODELIST.360 instead of the latest, NODELIST.176.

 BW> + 2021-07-03 11:08:20     Compare NODELIST.176 2021 / NODELIST.360 2021

According to this you have a "nodelist.360" file that has a year of 2021, so day 360 in year 2021 is ~ December 25, 2021.

This is of course not possible unless you have flux capacitor and a 1.21 gigawatt outlet powering your Mystic BBS.

Since a nodelist does not provide the year, the year comes from the file date which means a nodelist from 2020 should have a file date year of 2020 on it (and yours does not).  If you want to keep multiple years of nodelists then the trick is make sure the file dates don't change so the year can be determined and properly sorted.

I am not quite sure how I can change this to work any differently but open to suggestions.  For now the fix is to make sure your 2020 nodelists have 2020 years.
