Congratulations Oliver!

You are now the 392nd pilot on G2G.

Comments

Thanks, Tommy! Not least for keeping up the statistics. I just love numbers. ;-)

@Tommy: Follow-up question

I'm trying to retrace my being the 392nd pilot. I'm currently ranked as #379 in my G2G activity box, and at G2G's user list, there are twelve users with 100K G2G contributions after me, i.e. a total of 391 pilots. So, I am no. 392 of 391? What have I overlooked?

P.S.: If I enter #378 as start, the user list starts with me, so I'm no. 392 of 390?!? There seems to be a discrepancy in the algorithm ...

---

The discrepancy is that the WikiTree owner decided to hide the inactive members from being seen in the list (all you are seeing is the active members in the list) in the summer of 2022. So, you are not seeing two inactive members.

Yep ... it only causes more confusion on WikiTree!!!

---

Ah, that explains it. Thanks Tommy!

Answer 7

Congratulations Oliver Stegen on reaching 100K on G2G. Big effort to be sure !

Actually, it didn't feel like a big effort. If it was an effort at all, it was a rather enjoyable one ...

Answer 12

Cousin!!!! CONGRATULATIONS on making Pilot Status and getting your wings!! (and not because Redbull! XD)

You definitely deserve this recognition as an integral part to WikiTree, especially in our research areas of Germany. Really proud of you, man!

Comments

Thanks Cousin!

So happy to have joined you in the pilot lounge. Now we can have a Red Bull together at the pilot bar ;-)

---

P.S.: I had to ask a colleague at work what Red Bull has to do with wings - I honestly hadn't heard their slogan before! :-o

Sometimes, my non-digital life results in blissful ignorance ... :D

Answer 13

Congratulations, Oliver, on your 100k+ G2G points. Keep on flying and thank you for all of your contributions to our collective tree.
