irc.blinkenshell.org is a roundrobin name for all the servers on the network. Using this address is recommended if you're not connecting from triton. eu.irc.blinkenshell.org is also available as a roundrobin name with only the EU servers.
If you are connecting from Blinkenshell (via irssi for example), connect to sao or sao.blinkenshell.local (internal IRCd). Some other server addresses are redirected to the internal server when connecting from triton.
