If R>0, then if an E75 requests an upgrade, he will get it confirmed. If he is a nominee of an SE and the SE requests the upgrade when R>0, he gets the upgrade.

So it sounds like the issue here is, how come your upgrade was not confirmed if indeed when you requested it was R1? Or did the E75 grab it when it was R1 and then when you requested, it had dropped to R0?
