Hi Paul,

I think you're right, since Jameed's MMP algorithm does not cut ring 
systems and does not capture the environment at the cutting point.
Two solutions come into my mind:
  - either you go back to the original data, or
  - you search for more specific replacements, i.e. [*:1]CC>>[*:1]C[H], 
[*:1]c1ccccc1C>>[*:1]c1ccccc1[H] etc.
In LUCID for each fragment I calculate and store circular fingerprints 
centered at the dummy atom ([*]) of different sizes, which allow me to 
filter the results very easily (exactly for the kind of questions you 
wanted to answer).

Cheers,

Grégori
