Always use the pool hosts.
These automatically provide hosts from a "pool" for your service to sync to.
This means that if a hosts goes away, some other host replaces it and your time sync doesn't falter as you have found with Dimension4 looking for Deakin.
Best practice is to always have 3 or more server names configured to ensure you receive the correct time.
If you configure to use all the pool hosts you will always be in sync and have plenty of redundancy.
