who have I wanked please dude..
Congrats on being the head wanker (oh that sounds so bad).  I always knew you had potential.

But seriously, it's nice you've done this for a bunch of members--taken them under your wing, so to speak. 

I've done the same with one or two members who've taken me up on my offer to review their posts via PM, and I'd invite anyone else who's interested to do the same.  Just drop me a note asking me to review your post history if you're a lower-ranked member, and I'll do so.  If I think some of your posts are under-merited, I'll be happy to help out and if not, I won't--but the way I see it you've got nothing to lose by contacting me.

Props to OP for compiling this data, too.

Added the lists to the Merit Dashboard.  (Last tab, or https://public.tableau.com/shared/J8MWCR5H2?:display_count=y&:origin=viz_share_link). The data included is as of 07/02/2019. I’ve still got to see what update frequency to use for this tab (initially, I’ll try to make it weekly, alongside all other tabs but the one on the number of posts which is always monthly). The screen looks like this:



There are 3 sections on the screen:

a) Who ranked whom – Ranking:

It shows an ordered list of those who have ranked most people on the forum. In order to search within the list, either scroll around, or use the UserFromName filter on the right hand side of the screen (once filtered though, we’ll lose sight of the proper rank position, as it will be limited to a single entry).


b) Who ranked me:

It displays the list of profiles that ranked me up, the date, TX, merits and post. The post name is clickable, and the menu that pops-up lets you go to the post itself on Bitcointalk.


c) Who I ranked:

It displays the list of profiles that I’ve ranked-up, the date, TX, merits and post. The post name is clickable, and the menu that pops-up lets you go to the post itself on Bitcointalk.

You can change the user here in the UserName box (and press enter) in order to change the view to that of another user (applies to both sections "b" and "c" simultaneously).

I found the scripts I used, so let’s see if I can update the OP alongside the Google Sheet soon. I’ll probably overwrite the OP and archive the content previously for comparison purposes (as well as the old Google Sheet).

<…> I have a question. Does this means that those on the "Ranked-up needing Merit" are the latest data, for example I'm an old era newbie so in that data I belong to the Full Member (89) list and can't be listed anymore on the Member and Jr. ranks list? Hope you get my point here.
Since you got your first merit on the 17/09/2018 (just on the date ranking requirements changed), that merit counted for your Jr. Membership, and thus this is the output:
Code:
UserFromName                  user_from UserToName                    user_to   amount    msg                                               converted_date                RankedTo

In addition, you’ve also ranked @ruthwithers1980 (to Member):

I'm pretty sure LoyceV is the one that gets me wear this Full Member rank with the last 8 merits needed for me to ranked up, can't say for sure who is the one that gave me the merit to become a Member rank.

I have a question. Does this means that those on the "Ranked-up needing Merit" are the latest data, for example I'm an old era newbie so in that data I belong to the Full Member (89) list and can't be listed anymore on the Member and Jr. ranks list? Hope you get my point here.

Merit awarding is such a subjective topic. I wonder if declared alts of legendary members are more or less likely to receive merits. I think my Talk Merit alt was the faster to climb the initial ranks based on my gaming the activity to gain 28 in the first 15 days. I've managed to run the others up to member status to enable me to use the basic signature facilities should I wish to do so.

ps. One has to resist temptation when one has over 250 sMerits to award, and one's latest alt just needs one for promotion. Smiley

I'm not sure how one could detect it, but it would be interesting to see if any members have awarded merits to any of their alts.

That’s because this is a different focus. What this exercise shows is who merited you at a given point in time, being those merits the fundamental ones for you to move from one rank to another.

For example, in your case we’ve got:
Code:
UserFromName                  user_from UserToName                    user_to   amount    msg                                               converted_date                RankedTo

@nid125 sent you 3 sMerits on the 30/05/2018, which were the ones “used” to reach your Member rank at the time (>= 10 Merits) . Later on, on the  09/08/2019, @CucakRowo  sent you 2 sMerits, which led you to having >= 100 merits, and thus were key to swith from Member to Full Member.
All other TXs are not listed, since they did not cause you to change rank with them. Jr. Member TXs is not listed, since you reached Jr. Membership through Activity at the time.

And these are the people you've ranked-up (by meriting them enough to reach their next rank):
Code:
UserFromName                  user_from UserToName                    user_to   amount    msg                                               converted_date                RankedTo
dkbit98                       1410401   CucakRowo                     1932205   1         4982784.msg44952559                               2018-09-17 13:16:04.000       Jr. Member
dkbit98                       1410401   CucakRowo                     1932205   6         5080772.msg49269199                               2019-01-23 18:54:12.000       Member
snap...

All your received (or sent) TXs can be retrieved on the Merit Dashboard if you wish (Tab labelled TX and filter by userToId or UserToName).
These are all the sMerit TXs sent to you specifically: https://public.tableau.com/shared/R8KBM97TH?:display_count=yes&:origin=viz_share_link

<…> I didn't have scraped profile data ready, so you had a head start. When finished, let's compare data <…>
Okeydoke …

<…> But, there are thread which say that there is merit giveaway to those who are nearer to upgrading the ranks.

If those thread are taken in to count then it is also in the meriter's hand to intent someone to rank up. I do have much experience so, please correct if my point is wrong.
Sure that happens too, and the type of thread you mention is focused on that situation, leaving the casualty in a discrete plane in these cases (nothing wrong either – a helping hand let’s say). Proportionally though, these type of threads deal with a small amount of ranking-up situations, but may easily have an important weight if we take it down to stats at an individual level (i.e. number of people ranked by x).

You beat me to it Cheesy

I didn't have scraped profile data ready, so you had a head start. When finished, let's compare data Smiley

My example: LoyceV and bones261  (thank you guys  Wink) each sent me 11 merits in total (can't find any info about that in google doc)
See http://loyce.club/Merit/history/1410401.html (I'll add total Merit amounts later, that makes it easier to find the Rank-up moment).

Looks cool,
but I am not sure it is accurate or complete.
Maybe it is just for some members and not all of them.

It’s fair to say that ranking someone up is pretty incidental, and normally is not (I figure) the meriter’s intent, but rather a “lucky chance”. For some of those merited that ranked-up, it may be a memorable anecdote for a few days, and they likely will forget about it later on.


I read your complete post but mind is struck in this line and even I think that getting merits is incidental and is depends on the reader. If the reader finds it valuable then he gives merit. But, there are thread which say that there is merit giveaway to those who are nearer to upgrading the ranks.

If those thread are taken in to count then it is also in the meriter's hand to intent someone to rank up. I do have much experience so, please correct if my point is wrong.

@Iasenko casted a challenge (see To all the statistics guys out there, here's a challenge), which seemed interesting. I was reluctant at first to go ahead, but alas, my mind kept rumbling through the procedure to resolve the challenge, even if I tried to avoid it. I eventually came to answer in his thread the question the challenge wanted to resolve: ¿Who had @Iasenko ranked-up by meriting them at a given moment in time?

It’s fair to say that ranking someone up is pretty incidental, and normally is not (I figure) the meriter’s intent, but rather a “lucky chance”. For some of those merited that ranked-up, it may be a memorable anecdote for a few days, and they likely will forget about it later on.

What I did to resolve the challenge serves not only for @Iasenko’s specific case, but rather for any person that has merited o being merited with ranking-up involved in the process.

Disclaimer: Although I’ve checked it pretty thoroughly, there may be a few cases that do not fit my expected scenarios. If anyone detects this, I’ll look into it.


2.   Context

The general context is the current number of profiles that have ranked-up needing additional merits to do so. I make it as of last Friday to be as follows:


That is to say, 15.748 profiles have ranked-up needing merits. For example, there are 43 Legendries, 31 of which were Hero Members when the Merit System kicked-in, 6 were a Sr. Members, 5 Full Members, and another was a Member.

What I’ve done is, for those 15.748 profiles, determine which sMerit TX ranked them up, who was behind it, and when it occurred. If fact, I’ve really got 17.556 records. The extra records are due to those profiles that have ranked-up more than once since the Merit System started (if someone has ranked-up 2 levels, I track both moments in time).

In addition, I have excluded counting the cases when a person was merited and became Jr. Member before the 1 merit rule (17/09/2018). For example, a person that became Jr. Member before that date, and also a Member before the 17/09/2018 did not really need merits to become Jr. Member (only Activity). If on the other hand he received one merit before the 17/09/2018, but not enough additional merits to rank up before the 17/09/2019,  then that merit did count to making him a Jr. Member (keeping the rank), and thus I have counted it in.

4. Who ranked me and whom I ranked

In order to see this, you can access the second tab of the google doc (: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ob9XFfEFP_uHBb1IltzJRVmOX1jwKFitgYyULl-kYSY/edit?usp=sharing), and play around with the filters.

For example, If I filter by my UserToName I get to see who merited me, causing me to rank-up virtually or de facto:
Code:
UserFromName                  user_from UserToName                    user_to   amount    msg                                               converted_date                RankedTo

By "virtually" I mean that the given Merit TX is the one that caused the ranking-up to occur, but I cannot backtrack the Activity to state when that occured. For example, in my case, my merit counter was ahead of my activity counter, thus the narrow timeframes between dates on the above TXs.

And If I filter by my UserFromName I get to see who I’ve ranked-up by meriting them at the precise moment:
Code:
UserFromName             user_from UserToName               user_to   amount    msg                                                              converted_date           RankedTo            CurrentRank
