Small change. The GitHub repository is now at https://github.com/cowtool-llc/ac-sqd.
cowtool will continue to provide the hosting, and this is still an open source project (I should probably throw a license up there). I just wanted to get it off my personal account since it shares resources with the rest of cowtool.

So I "feel" like I've had to adjust per-segment SQD in my spreadsheet by a dollar a lot.
Unfortunately, so many of my flights are FP bookings, so I don't actually have historical records of what the actual base fare was.
But if anyone has noticed this, where the calculator says you'll earn $100 but you end up with $99 or $101, I'd really appreciate knowing your base fare, surcharges, routing, and what you actually received, per segment.
I'm going to keep an eye out going forward.

If no one objects to that in the next while, I'll push a change.

Okay with one example from me and three from Adam, I think AC always rounds SQD up to the next dollar, whether it's xx.01 or xx.99.
If no one objects to that in the next while, I'll push a change.

At this point I wouldn't mind a few more that were off by a dollar, but a few that were correct would be useful too. I just want to make sure my test cases cover enough before I'm confident my "fix" actually fixes everything.

My last flight shows an SQD of 862 in the calculator - a number that exactly matches my own calculation based on the fare paid - and AC have granted me just 619 for that flight. I plan to email them about it (as is my new routine) but that whole issue & process makes the verification of the FT calculator, very hard.
