 ### Introduction

 ### Implementation
 
+Every node will follow the below procedure for all group messages.  It should usually result in a group message being sent via single nodes for the first few hops, but as it gets close to the destination it will spread out in parallel to nodes close to the target.
+
 For a node with ID `X` which has received a group message destined for address `A`, the protocol is:
 
 - [`nth_element`](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/nth_element) sort the routing table by closesness to `X` where n<sup>th</sup> element index is 15
