I'm in the middle of the pack, or slightly below average in this group with:
EQDs: $17,018
EQMs: 112,323
EQSs: 75
There are some amazing numbers in this thread, but the one that strikes me was 154 EQS.

I'm shocked (embarrassed?) that I'm #2 on segments from what I can see. I don't feel like I'm as heavy of a traveler as some of y'all on here. Anyway, with about 15 segments, $3k left, here's where I am today:
$: 19.9k
Segments; 145
Miles: 131k

Second post in the thread, thelark has 105,444 EQM in 21 segments for 5021 EQM/EQS. Willing to bet there are more up in that range. Still, I for one am very envious of your pattern; every time I see these comparisons I think to myself "man I'm really doing this the hard way" with my <1000 EQM/EQS pattern.
Additionally my recent 4 segment 3700mile itin damaged that average... there's always next year!!!

Can't really be bothered anymore. I have been flying with other airlines and have been burning up my AA miles all year - without sounding too brash (sorry!!) I even bought my own plane for 1000 mile trips or less because I'm simply fed up. They don't get it and they don't care which makes me ever so happy about the fact that I sold all of our AA stock a couple of years ago too.
Parker says that people don't complain about legroom etc.... If you choose the questions AND the available answers on these surveys then they (AA MGMT) only hear the answers they they want to hear. They are useless! I flew on first to Barbados the other day in F, on the new 737 MAX(ed) and it was awful. Plastic cheap seats that were already falling apart and no airshow/moving map. I honestly think I could do a better job of running an airline than these muppets.
I'm going rogue and I'll take with it my family and business that I have and the friends/business that I have influence over.
I still have my 4 SWUs that I have been UNABLE to use (not without trying).......... Waste of time.
*** If AA MGMT reads this, please PM me. I'd love to talk.

EQD: $22,585
EQM: 101,171
EQS: 98
Made it to EXP for the first time this year. I know there are a lot of complaints about everything being devalued, but I'm still happier to make it than not.

I had a flight yesterday that has yet to post. I should end up with ~$15K EQD and 102K EQMs.
This is an interesting thread. I would find it more interesting if people included how much of the EQD came from personal vs business, and what, if any CC bonuses were in the totals.
For me, 99% of EQDs is personal (as I only had 1 work trip). In addition, $6K of EQD was from Barclays Silver. I had 10K EQMs from Barclays also.

Current $29,118 - 156,982 EQM - 140 EQS.
Missing $ and EQM for re-route on Asiana to Seoul.
Another $2-8,000 - 7-30,000 EQM - 7-11 EQS depending on how JAL codeshare accrues.
