Previously tried to discard that.  I posted the message before I
finished my coffee, found my answer by good ol' RTFM, and forgot to trim

As I understand it, in the context of DNS in general, the tier 1 server
would be for all intents the TLD manager, and is one step off the root
server (tier 0).  Maybe the nomenclature is a little different in
OpenNIC, not sure - I'm still exploring the O'Reilly book as I have
time.
