Hi, I would recommend reading Sebastien Morin's paper about the consistency testing to understand how to interpret the plots. He also gives the relevant references for the different parts of the tests where you will find more details. I would recommend it. As for the model elimination, this is completely explained in my 2006 paper on model-free model elimination (http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10858-006-9007-z). The relevant rule from that paper is that your internal correlation times are 1.5 greater than the global correlation time of the molecule. With today's limitations of what you can measure, you should not see motion on these time scales as they are hidden by experimental noise.
Looking at your results file, there are many more problems than just this model elimination. The chi2 value is over 2 million, which indicates a very, very bad fit! Now that I looked more carefully at the results file, I can see the exact problem. I would recommend multiplying your proton frequencies by 1e6, as they should be in Hz ;) I think I'll add some checks to relax for the input frequency.
