Good idea. In QF its based on Life SCs : 7,000 for Life Silver (OW Ruby), 14,000 for Life Gold (OW Sapphire).

And you could even list it if you like (the nature of the chart as it is) specifically related to Emerald earning levels : e.g. in QF it will take an absolute maximum of 5 2/3 years of Emerald status to earn Life Silver and 11 1/2 years to earn Life Gold. (Life Silver : 1400 to earn in first year, plus 4 2/3 years re-earning at exactly the 1200 required = 7,100 SCs; Life Gold : 1400 to earn in first year, plus 10 1/2 years re-earning at exactly the 1200 required = exactly the 14,000 SCs needed).

If Life Status is earned much quicker/easier or longer/harder in other progs. (i.e. when judged by how many years of minimum Emerald earn and rearn it would take to achieve it) that would be great to be able to see clearly in such a chart.

Uber J and F flyers of course will earn Life Status in just a year or two, no matter which of the progs. they are in !
