I'm no expert, and I don't understand what pulled during shuffle means, but that rotation was less credit than the LCW minimum. Perhaps it pulled that trip during the shuffle when it couldn't find any other trip to add to it to reach the LCW.

The rotation you were awarded reached the LCW minimum.

I suspect you would have been awarded your first choice if you would have put in a LLW bid request before your other rotation requests.

Welcome to your new juniority.

Looks like you figured it out while I was typing. I'm so fast on the keyboard, don't cha know.
