Klondike,
I can think of plenty of reasons to call in fatigued - I think most reasonable Pilots will agree with you here.
The issue is that as a Reserve you get the guarantee. You called in fatigued and will still get the guarantee - no financial harm was done.
The only thing that I am curious about is them putting you right back on reserve? Seems like they should have removed you from the availability list since you were fatigued.
