SunshineJS, ok, this isn't a DQ, but it is an early start bump that I can't explain. Now, it isn't in your section so perhaps you can't help much, but here goes.
This player,
http://tennislink.usta.com/Leagues/...1F0745D44A59583F0E0D7C93E2A1&par2=2013&par3=0, Katie, was a 2.5 to start the year, played 2 mixed matches that shouldn't count and played 4 adult matches that should. She ended up being on the PNW early start list as a bump up to 3.0.
First match involvved C-rated players so it would generate a result, but it was also a loss (6-3,6-2) so likely wasn't a great result.
The second match was against a self-rated player playing her 4th match, but her first match had been against a self-rated player in her first match so shouldn't have generated a rating, and her third was against a self-rated player in her first match so shouldn't have generated a rating. So this self-rated opponent only had 1 match with a rating, not 3, so this second likely couldn't generate a rating for Katie as the opponent can't have had a dynamic rating yet with only one match generating a rating.
The third match was against a self-rated opponent playing just her second match so she wouldn't have a rating yet and this match wouldn't generate a rating for Katie.
The fourth match was against a self-rated opponent playing just her second match so she wouldn't have a rating yet and this match wouldn't generate a rating for Katie.
Still, after these 4 matches, only one which should have generated a rating and it a loss, Katie was bumped up to 3.0 on the early start list.
Can you explain how this could happen? I don't think there is anywhere close to 60% self-rated players in the sub-flight (I count 38 amongst 10 teams, each team with over 10 players each) so am baffled how it could occur.
