For technical reasons the placement algorithm in 1.0 needs to be
re-executed under some conditions (I forget exactly which).  What
you're see is the "scores" from that recomputation.  The new scores
are +/-infinity because we've already been through it once.

Basically, the first scores are the "real" ones.

Pretty sure I removed this from 1.1
