As the autoher of the original post it's fun to see some traffic

First:
To stargold: Not really that important but in order to use the SK lounges (except for the Arlanda Domestic Lounge) you need to be a Top * Tier i.e. Gold. I'm quite sure that's what you meant but the * middle tier is Silver. What is confuzing? Probably the fact that e.g. as a UA PremEx you are a United middle tier but a * Top tier (Gold).

Second:
I think I must agree that as an emerald member of OW you do get better lounge access than a Star Gold. Emerald members get to use all first class and business lounges regardless of which airline they use (they can fly * but still use the OW lounges).

My first goal is to become star gold, however, OW gold seems much harder (difficult).
