I do think something must be off in the query. I received an email today saying that Jedi was qualified for Pre-Elite. This is correct, as Jedi currently has 40 points in Nov, 30 points in Open, and 30 points in Elite Regular. That equals the 100 that is required for Pre-Elite from *any level*.
A little while later I received an email saying that Jedi was qualified for Elite. He does have the 40 points in Chances and Jumpers, but as you can see above he only has 60 points in Open/Elite Regular combined. The qualifications say that 100 points are required.
Out of curiosity I just went and checked for Kaiser, for whom I also got a qualification email. Kaiser only has 20 points in Jumpers and 20 points in Chances since August. So he shouldn't have received the invite yet, either.
