Got a modest but welcome bump that took me over the 1 MM mark.
978K -->> 1,061K
Liberating as now I don't always have to plan on UA BIS to maintain status and would never make 2MM even if I tried.

365k to 465k for me. Figure those numbers aren't too bad for being 30 and only traveling for work for 3-4 years.

We're in roughly the same category, very unhappy about the devaluation of the BIS MM status we earned and certainly having no incentive to fly another 600,000 miles to attain 2 MM status.

I wouldn't mind betting they'll tweak the program in your favor as the new airline takes shape. They'll dangle a few carrots at the folks stuck in the wasteland between 1MM and 2MM.

I was bumped up about 125k to 564k+ ---when the CO lifetime is added in, I'll be at about 1045000.

Been with UA since 1998 and it looks like I got the biggest screwing in adjustment. 1.20 to 1.29, a marginal 90,000 gain. Guess earning 1k on segments ofr all those years at the lowest fare possible finally caught up to me.

I went from 580k to 1.1 million. Adding in CO will bring me to 1.3 million but not close enough to 2 million to keep flying UA!

Not quite a spectacular jump as others, but quite pleased as it matches my estimate pretty well.
(I spent a good time taking a walk down memory lane remembering all of my previous *A trips... and those bonus EQMs for faxing in competitor mileage account statements... y'all remember those? )

Not as impressive as others, but more than I expected
I also printed my yearend activity a 3pm ET today. The recalc had not happened. Seeing this thread I checked and happily the recalc has now posted. I had a modest 25% increase, but it was more than I expected and pushed me over 1MM.
I went from a bit under 900,000 to 1,100,000. Although hopeful, I was not sure that the new total after the recalc would make be over 1MM as I have done my best to only fly UA metal.
1MM won't be what I expected it to be when I started down the path to earn it. I would have rather waited another year to make 1MM and earned what I was expecting, but things could have been much worse with the absorption of UA into CO. The new PE is much less beneficial than the old UA PE and upgrades have more value to me than a spouse match. Also the benefit will be diluted as the number of 1MMs will escalate this year.
Since the new total posted prior to 1/1/2012 and pushed me over 1M does that mean I will qualify for the last annual SWU and CR1 awards for MMers?
PS - when I asked for a record dump this fall I was told a solid no.
