I'll go first...

United (1 million*/Lifetime Premier Exec)
Air France/KLM (10 yrs consecutive Platinum/Lifetime PLatinum)


* I earned a lot of UA miles when they offered 750 miles minimum AND included elite bonuses toward status. And I used Pass Plus for 4 years (buy a mileage bank, so I would do super short hop flights like CLE-ORD-GRB anf have like 450 miles deducted from my mileage balance and earn 3000 status miles...those were the days!!
My recollection is that United MM only included BIS miles for United, United Express, Ted and United Shuttle only. If there was a flight minimum at the time it was included at that amount (i.e. 500 or 750 miles). I never recall including any other carriers or elite bonus towards the MM total.
