Was the garre ev32? What clan was the rx and what's his haplogroup?

The latest manual labor results a while back before I found out there was a download button:
E-V32 = 60%
T-L208 = 24.2%
T-M70 = 1.57%

I could have taken a representative measure instead of going through what then was everything. Still, I checked each available because I did not want to miss out on rare haplogroups. I thought checking for autosomal peculiarities was convenient since I was going through all the work anyway.
They disabled it? Thankfully I downloaded my stuff.
Dude, that number I showed was all done through manual labor. Sifting through 100s of people was tiresome and tedious.

I took the manual approach on only the non-E-V32 and non-T Y-DNA haplogroups, around a dozen of them were false matches/recent mixes, so I just filtered those out easy enough. The task is more tedious for mtdna, my relatives list has 120 different rows of mtdna haplogroups, so I didn't bother with those. Some are obvious but others with M, N, L3 are too similar.

Why do they duplicate the results of some people on the downloaded files?
Initially I thought it was a fluke, then tried downloading for a second time and often I see same people double or triple in a row on the spreadsheet.
They list every chromosomal segment you share with each person in separate rows. I removed the duplicates based on the profile url column which stays the same for each person; whether they only share 1 chromosomal segment (1 row) or they're your parent who shares 23 segments (23 rows), rather than removing duplicates by name and risking losing people with commonly shared names.

I have seen others post results. It seems consistent. It would be fair to recognize some bias in our pooling due to overlapping sample sets.
Nevertheless, I will state these values to be very representative of macro northern Somali mtDNA with some minor adjustments proven through the fact that you have nearly 2x my sample size without significant deviation. The positive thing is the sample bias is geared toward Af Maxaa, so we should suspect all the large clans to have this. Well, I don't know about Maay speakers, even if you control mixing -- it could be that mtDNA founder effects have shaped different pockets of clusters from the pool we listed. Or it could be that we have received bottle-neck where diversity has lowered and retained in southern Somalia. These things are not mutually exclusive. We will see. Southern Somalians need a study of its own to cover this, in my opinion.
v cool
I just used Dnagenics matches analyses tool and uploaded the relatives data there
