I think it technically is date of upgrade request - however the upgrade is requested automatically at ticketing unless you uncheck the box. If you don't check it and come back later and request it then I believe you would still be at date of when you checked the box instead of ticketing. I just don't see that anyone would do this.l

It has always been explained to me that MM total plays an important role in how international OP-UPs are determined when all other factors are equal...is this still true? And we all know how agents can proclaim something wholeheartedly without it being true.

Looks like the website owner changed it to "time of ticketing" as second tiebreaker. But I also believe it's "time of request" which coincides with time of ticketing in most cases. However, if the request happens later than ticketing then the two won't match but "time of request" is the second tiebreaker.

Could be, but that is not what it says on Delta.com (where lower fares may be available) See this page: https://www.delta.com/skymiles/about...ades/index.jsp and footnote 2 under the Confirmation Windows section.
* Your confirmation window
* Availability
* Fare class
* Time of request
"Time of request" is the tie breaker. Your reservation will have a request time at the time of ticketing in most situations. There are a few where the request time might be later but those are rare cases.

Some fixes were applied tonight
- Fixed issue with DM priority. Ex. A DM B fare was higher than a PM, GM, or FO Y fare.
- DL Res Amex is tiebreaker #1. No need to select DL Res Amex anymore. Page should load faster now.
- Minor appearance changes.

Added Permalink to MUPC. Basically, you can copy the permalink. Ex. http://cwsi.net/mupc.aspx?status=DM&fare=M
Might also be helpful in situations when someone on FTalk is asking about the rank based on their status and fare.

Now that AFKL Elites are complimentarily upgraded, it would be nice to have it on the calculator.

Good stuff!
Used it and confirmed I'm #2 on the Upgrade List flying DTW to LAX today.
Sad part: first class is full.

I've updated the calculator based on the new fares. Cheers!
