Reading the Movers & Shakers leaderboards (End 2023)

Briefly, this is what you need to know about the leaderboards in this post. For more details about the Top 100 leaderboards see the leaderboard documentation:

1. Simply stated, the term Movers & Shakers in this post is used to describe the Local Guides that have achieved the most in terms of overall Local Guide points, photo views and star views over the past month. Therefore, the leaderboards in this post indicate how active each participating Local Guide has been over the past month as well as the performance of their photos, videos and 360 spheres, and their respective stars in terms of views over the same period.

   To explain the different metrics used in the Movers & Shakers leaderboards we will use the following simple example. Sarah, a Level 8 Local Guide, uses the T100 System and updates her data on the 28th of each month. For simplicity of explanation, she updates her data every 30 days! The following table summarizes her key data as at 28 April and 28 May::

   Data	28 April	28 May	Delta	% Delta
   Points	20,000	24,000	4,000	20%
   Photos	860	900	40	0.5%
   Photo Views	15m	16.8m	1.8m	12%
   Star Photo Views	4.03m	4.06m	0.03m	0.7%

   (a) The Delta Points is the value of the points earned by a Local Guide over the past month. In this way, Sarah’s current Delta Points is 4,000 [ 24,000 - 20,000 ]^*.

   (b) The % Delta Points is the value of the points earned by a Local Guide over the past month expressed as a percentage. Therefore, Sarah’s current % Delta Points is 20% [ (4,000/20,000)*100 ].

   (c) The Delta Views is the absolute value of the total photo views gained by a Local Guide over the past month. Thus, Sarah’s Delta Views for that month is 1.8m [ 16.8m - 15m ]^*.

   (d) The % Delta Views is the value of the total views gained by a Local Guide over the past month expressed as a percentage. Therefore, Sarah’s current % Delta Views is 12% [ (1.8m/15m)*100 ].

   (e) The Delta Views/Photo is the average photo views gained per photo by a Local Guide in the past month and for comparative purposes, this gives a simple measure of the overall quality of a Local Guide’s photos in terms of views gained per photo; the higher the Delta Views/Photo the higher the quality of the photos! Therefore, Sarah has a current Delta Views/Photo of 180 2,000 [ 1.8m/900 ].

   (f) The Delta Views/Day is the average photo views gained per day by a Local Guide in the past month and for comparative purposes, this is another metric that gives a simple measure of the overall quality of a Local Guide’s photos in terms of views gained per day; the higher the Delta Views/Day the higher the quality of the photos! Therefore, Sarah has a current Delta Views/Day of 60,000 [ 1.8m/30 ].

   (g) The Delta Star Views is similar to the Delta Views however in this case, it represents the views gained over the past month by a Local Guide’s most viewed photo, or star photo. Therefore, Sarah’s Delta Star Views is 30,000 [ 4.06m - 4.03m ]^*

   (h) The Delta Star Views/Day is simply the average Delta Star Views per day over the past month. Therefore, Sarah’s star photo has a Delta Star Views/Day of 1,000 [ 30,000 / 30 ]. This metric gives a simple up-to-date measure of the quality of our star photo in terms of views gained per day^*.

2. If you are a participant in the Points, Photo Views, Star Photos and Country leaderboards and haven’t updated your data in the previous month and in time for the leaderboards posted here then you will obviously not be included in the Movers & Shakers leaderboards.

3. If you are a new participant on the Top 100 Leaderboards then you will not be included in the Movers and Shakers this month simply because you do not have a prior month’s history.

4. If you updated in your contributions data in the previous month but not in the month prior to that then you will also not be included in this month’s Movers & Shakers because your Delta Points would be across more than one month and this would unfairly distort the idea behind the Movers & Shakers which looks at the points and photo views movement (i.e. the delta points) in the one month.

5. In summary, the Movers & Shakers leaderboards only include those Local Guides who regularly update and have especially done so over the last couple of months. It’s all about creating that level playing field and comparing apples with apples.

6. Where shown, around leaderboard sequence numbers indicate that this is the Local Guide is a new participated on the Top 100 Local Guides leaderboards.

7. An asterisk (*) shown after a Connect Username indicates that that Local Guide is a Connect Moderator.

8. Double asterisks (**) shown after a Connect Username indicates that that Local Guide is a Googler.

9. Selecting any of the Connect Usernames will take you to that Local Guide’s Connect Profile.

10. Local Guides included in the leaderboards must check their entries for any errors. If you should find any errors or omissions, please add the details in a comment on this post.

    • Please note that making comparisons using metrics such as delta points and delta views must be done carefully. In my view it is better to use points per day or views per day for comparative purposes and you will find these in the Core Vitals section of the T100 Leaderboards System!

So here we are, just some tidying up to do and we’ve effectively finished the last set of leaderboards WooHoo

Who can explain why no one is listed on the Video Views Movers & Shakers Leaderboard?

[MattGatlin]

@AdamGT No one is listed in the Video Views Movers and Shakers, because video views data tracking just debuted this month, right…?

[AdamGT]

Well done @MattGatlin 10/10. BTW did you get a notification for the new post?

[ShailendraOjha]

As usual always your presentation superb sir @AdamGT but this time delta super atrective leaderboard presentation, ( just one of my suggestion sir for near future you can classification Movers - Delta, shakers - Beeta, & stable - Gama, for LG’s position in leaderboard, it’s just suggestion) i always appreciate your hard work & always like your virtual presentation ( ta da da ) & my style Tarram pum pum…

@AdamGT I only got a few of the notifications for this Movers & Shakers post:

I never got one for the initial posting with the points movers & shakers or for the star photo m&s.

@AdamGT I always like to read this board the most, the analysis of my photos views shows 30% of views came from my star photo which is doing super great in the last 5 months

Hai @AdamGT

I just wonder why my name is not on the list.

Wish you all the best.

Dear @AdamGT ,

It’s been some time since I commented on one of your exciting leaderboards: unfortunately during the year there are periods of intense focus on other responsibilities, and in which - quoting William Shakespeare - “time is a tyrant that never tires”.

But I never give up on finding a space (even late at night, like now) for a portion of time to enter my monthly data - an activity that is becoming a pleasant habit - and to read the countless lists that with heroic commitment you manage to put together.

You are truly to be admired, and I feel honored to be part of this group of passionate Local Guides!

A hug to all the LGs of the world from Rome, Italy.
