Oh dear me @MarkAuchincloss. Your super kind words make me feel so proud. Thank you so much and I’m really pleased to hear you say that you “have picked up so much and enjoy my communications with this amazing world of inspiring local guides”.
Oh thank you @ShailendraOjha and indeed you should be proud of your contributions and achievements amongst a world-wide Local Guides community. Well done you and keep guiding, keep contributing and keep achieving.
Yes 2024 has been an incredible year and I’m pleased to hear that it has been a rewarding one for you @indahnuria. Indeed it is very “rewarding to share the journey with so many awesome and inspiring LGs.”
Indeed you have participated on the Leaderboards from it’s very first year @AT_Rome and very consistently so, and you have watched it mature from it’s early very much manual days to what it is today. Thank you for your kind and thoughtful wishes Alex.
Thank you @ShreyaMusings. I’m really happy that what I contribute here on Connect motivates and inspires you and that this beautiful community has connected you with many amazing people. Keep guiding, keep contributing and keeping achieving.
@MilesMac I don’t think a Top1000 would be a good idea. That’s going to be too much scrolling to go through all the types of Leaderboard and the associated levels. Under the present structure, I know there are some boards I won’t be on, and others where I’ll always excel.
In my case I’m also from a small island with a lot less scope than LGs from big countries and continents, but I’m thankful to @AdamGT for creating the Country Leaderboards where I can shine in relation to what I do at home rather than making comparisons to folks from other international locations.
Overall I think there’s a apace somewhere for everybody on the charts.
I agree with Tony, even tables with 100 rows are a bit long to scroll down. Who reads all the names and numbers?
To be honest, my main, if not only questions are “What is my position?” and “Are there names nearby, which I know?”.
For the first question, there might be a completely different solution (don’t know, if doable):
On the T100 site, everybody could see the own position in the boards. For me, this would be sufficient and the public lists could even be shorter than 100.
For my second question … no idea. @tony_b@AdamGT
Agreeing with @tony_b and @WilfriedB , 1000 is way too many, I vote to keep it at 100, in the original days way back when, we never had a “who’s knocking on the door”. You could maybe and I say maybe increase this number a little.
Hello dear friend @AdamGT,
You are very hard working and very kind… Thanks for your kind words and nice compliments. Proud that we could assist and support you in the beginning of this mission.
Regards
@MilesMac
This would increase @AdamGT Job 10 fold, only he can answer if manual, semi automated of fully automatic the entries received, a 1000 entries is a scrolling 4ever job, you’ve a restricted profile so can’t see your profile on maps, no harm in this as in this pic
These were taken from the Top 100 Average/Views Media (December 2024) list
As @tony_b said you will not be in every leaderboard but excel in others as he showed going from level 8 to 9, from memory he’s 101 on some list (knocking on the door)
Yes I do agree with you lots of LG’s lost in transition upping levels

Oh PS @Mikeinthefalls
Mohita @ShreyaMusings
Thanks for your encouragement & kind words, as always I’ll shuffle/plod along @ my own pace, I did check your GMP & your well on the way to a level 9 local guide & well done to you, keep contributing equally to you,
I did notice we differ on the vote but I personally think 1000 is too much
Yes you might show up more in the metrics but why not 10,000 to show efforts of even more LG’s
An never ending story I believe
“If something works don’t break it”
springs to mind @AdamGT
It’s just my opinion/vote ultimate choice is not made by me alone and I am aware than making such a list would take a lot of time and effort but it would be worth the encouragement.
Regards,
Hi Mohita, @ShreyaMusings, thanks for your reply, yes if we all went the same way it would be so boring, I value your opinion,
On trajectory to a level 9 guide way before me & I wish you the best of luck on your journey to this milestone
