In Jay's changelog

What Jay's changelog for GTS says about it, newest revision first. A later revision can have changed it again; the rest of this page is what base GTS does now.

V92 Greybeards Spoil The Game: We now prevent the game from picking Dead Men's Respite and Volskygge locations for the "Find the Word/Source of Power" radiant quests.. These locations have the Whirlwind Sprint words and can bug out if you already know all the words for the shout for this word, as you learn them during "The Way of the Voice" main quest.

From base GTS 118's own records: the winning copy of DeadMensRespiteLocation (Skyrim.esm). Level: the place's encounter zone, as the records set it. The game sets a place's level from yours, kept between its lowest and highest; GTS's Encounter Zones Unlocked keeps it following you rather than fixed at your first visit. Boss: who the place's own record marks as its boss (one picked by level has no name of its own and isn't shown). People: where the game places them as a game starts; they walk about.
