What's your EQM to EQP ratio for 2012?

Because of the great double and/or triple bonus early and late, I'm guessing there are some huge differences this year. I know that there will be some changes as double miles are calculated. You can always edit later. I'm taking an end of year trip, so I wanted to do this before I forget. And, if I've managed to duplicate a thread someone has already started, I'm sorry. The mods can combine or close this. I really did search.

For me, it's about 4:1

YTD Elite Qualifying Miles 117,646
YTD Elite Qualifying Points 29,423

with one flight to go, tomorrow.

Other than individual posts bragging how cheap-o/smart or $$$ spender one is...wouldn't it be interesting to have a poll with certain ranges?
Oh wait, is it EQM/EQP? or EQP/EQM?

I am at 114,308EQM and 82,767EQP (1.4 EQM :1 EQP)

What's your EQM to EQP ratio for 2012?

EQM 96,930
EQP 100,400
Ratio is 0.965 thanks to 2 full-fare (Y) trips to Southeast Asia. It always drives me nuts that a J ticket would cost less. Got to love corporate travel policies

This happens to me occasionally. I just call the airline directly and change to the Y-up fare and have them refund the difference. Being a full-fare Y, there is no change fee to deal with.

I've tried, but AA won't touch the reservation because it's booked through a travel agency. On the plus side, upgrades are only 15,000 miles without a co-pay.

Not to hijack the thread, but you have to speak to the "meeting services" department within AA. (Just call and ask to be transferred to Meeting Services right off the bat, saves a bunch of time that way). They will charge a $25 fee to touch the ticket since it was originated by a travel agency, and this $25 cannot be paid from the refund.

Also, it sometimes takes 1-2 days after booking through the agency before it is shown as ticketed in the AA system, and that is when AA can touch it and modify the reservation.
