Unexpected CR1s
First noticed by TechnoPagan on the thread about DEQMs posting early (p24). Check your balance.
Edit: especially new 1Ks. Got a little carried away.

I just noticed this as well. 2 New CR-1's posted without corresponding E-500's. I also just crossed the 1K threshold with DEQM's posting.

Perhaps from the fare based CR1 promo?

Like many other FTers, I signed up for the DEQM program, and the miles posted in the last several days. I was a 1P, but the DEQM miles put me over the top and I regained the 1K status I lost a year and a half earlier. I just checked my MP account and noticed that UA dropped two CR-1's into my account even though I have not yet flown as a 1K for 2009. I was expecting to earn CR-1's going forward, not retroactively. Anyway, I'm pleased. Thanks UA

possible reason
i suspect is that although the EQMs posted officially recently, they were officially counted as having them since the date of your original flights back in April-June. hence, possibly the system sorta retroactively awarded u 1K back through when you 'crossed' the 1K threshold back in May or June and then awarded you CR1s based on sweep of 1ks.
just a theory. but it would explain why a sweep on a Sat night would give you CR1s.

Hmm... Made 1k from zilch in May (without DEQM) but no CR1s then. But the latest sweep just put 2 into my account?

Hmmm this would certainly be a glitch I suppose. Thus if you had e 500's post after the 13th of June then you would have gotten the CR1's I'm thinking then.
Since the 13th is the 2nd Saturday of June. Is that the correct interpretation of those that have received this unexpected perk?
If not let me know what the criteria would be as I want to understand how this may have happened.
