Several of the descrepencies in my account that I've disputed since January have now been corrected - and yesterday over 8,000 EQM's posted. I requalified for Platinum in April (even with the incorrect values), so it's more or less a matter of principal for me at this point...

We may disagree with Continental management on the merits of the EQM system, but I don't think they can even begin to claim that the new system was well implimented or administered. If you're within a few thousand miles of the next elite level when December 31st rolls around, I'd take the time to go through your old statements with a fine-toothed comb.... The people who follow FT will get what they deserve, but I'd imagine that there's a great number of "casual" elites out there that have earned thousands of EQM's that they'll never see.
