I have pretty consistantly been in Group C the past few weeks. This week, I noticed my group slipped to Group D just minutes before the tournament ended. This seems weird to me becaue my four individual time trial races put me in Group C, Group C, Group B, Group C. With 3 C race and 1 B race, how in the world does my overall split end up in Group D?!?!?

The same thing happened to me, although fortunately it happened earlier in the day and I managed to catch it in time and shave off an additional .1s about an hour before the deadline. I was top 10% in all 4 races, but top 20% overall. AFAIK, the only mathematical explanation for this situation is that some races have higher participation than others, which is what happened during the 4-week Nascar reign of terror. Makes me wonder if the last batch of ultra-difficult SE's actually did cause more people than usual to quit the game.
