Watching Action on the Leaderboards

S. Leon

@loaffette -- This group is and has been very well represented on the Leaderboards: HanahsDax and Lia!

S. Leon

Mike Mueller unlinked his Onewheel Plus, disappearing off the number 2 slot of the Plus mileage Leaderboard. He had controller circuit board troubles awhile back, has not logged a mile since then, was hoping to solder his way out, and saying that having his Onewheel inoperable was like losing a friend. Mike is the one who first used Posi-taps to "vampire" into the power wires -- sharing the technique widely. He might now be using Vesc as a controller under his furry fender. With Mike out of Plus mileage number 2, I and my Onewheel Plus, "A Dark Horse," have slipped in there -- still over 2000 miles behind the French rider TiY--N, the number 1.

Edit -- added screenshot (because I like the look of the #1 & #2):

A little birdy tells me a big number might be rolling round on the daystreak very soon for someone on the leaderboard 👀

Lia

He did it 🥳

Another huge milestone by @HanahsDax

Personally never thought anyone would ever do more than a year when I first started. Seeing the king of daystreaks just crush 1500 days is wild.

While HanahsDax is true legend - no question about it. Could someone please explain what numbers 1500 and 277 are referring to?
(I'm dumb at understanding leaderboard statistics plus my knowledge of english is probably limited in that context.)

Lia

@sirgu That's okay, there's a bit of a story too it.
There was an official streak being held by his XR before it E16'd one day out of nowhere. While it was being repaired the V1 took on the torch for the unofficial streak and to keep count Dax began counting the streak on the username.

Officially the GT streak is 277 days but counting XR -> V1 -> GT he's managed a daily streak of 1500 without breaking a single day.
This of course becomes even more wild when you consider he's still actually holding a 2 year long V1 streak at the same time!

There is a celebration post on reddit too with some cool pics too for anyone wanting to take a peak :)

Sirgu

Cool, that clears it up. Thanks @Lia!

As stupid as it sounds, for a minute I thought that is some sort of crazy app feature to imply three/four-digit numbers into usernames for those who are well deserved it, lol. Because there are some others alike.

EDIT:
What it takes to get a day-"streak" logged anyways?

FM app always hooked up for sure. (?)
More than 1 mile rode per day? More than 5?? 10???
More than 5mph per daily ride? More than 10mph?? ...
GPS location always enabled ?

--Sorry I really don't know! I picked up from somewhere that Dax does basement parking lot rides on rainy days. That only probably don't aknowledge me enough on understanding how to get such achievement. 1500 days of hustle for sure!

HanahsDax

Hey @Sirgu, I began adding my day streak count to my username to help me keep track of where I am at. It’s an unofficial record using the “official” Onewheel app.

In order to continue a day streak, a rider must ride at least a mile with the app being opened at some point so the information can be sent to the main server.

Sirgu

@HanahsDax , therefore you also must be one of the well organized riders out there! Phone always charged up, either one of your boards always reliably good to go, app always (early) updated in good network.
I can hardly imagine the frustration like -- being out on late-evening ride .. later app launch on the fly pops up the 'forced update' screen overlay .. no good mobile data .. no returning home before midnight .. oh sh..
(personally I don't care)
Congratz on your 1500 days!

LOAFFETTE

I was in the top 100 when it rained bad down here in Texas and I didn't want to risk water damage and my streak was ended ;-;

stinkyface

Happy to report finally cracking the top 100 for XR mileage.....

LOAFFETTE

@stinkyface congrats man!

S. Leon

@stinkyface -- Good looking number(s)!!!

HanahsDax

Two years of eating this achievement challenge for lunch. Where’s my lunch voucher Future Motion?

stinkyface

@hanahsdax haha, at the other end of the spectrum. Been riding this contraption for 4 years and only 15 lunchtime rides.. 🙄

At least I haven't missed out on a free feed.

HanahsDax

Seven riders on the V1 day streak leaderboard.

S. Leon

@hanahsdax -- I have been enjoying your back and forth Onewheel Leaderboard dance with HoleinOnewheel. Today I notice you achieved the nice round number of 6100 GT miles logged -- and that at the moment HoleinOnewheel is at 6101.

Also impressive to me is the fact that every single one of your GT miles is also your mileage on the GT mileage Leaderboard. And... you will SOON be overtaking solofloat 4 degrees, which will put you at a solid #3 in the GT Daystreak with no more toggling to #4 occasionally.

Having had long streaks myself on the V1 and Onewheel Plus I appreciate that you ride lots -- in all kinds of weather and whether you really want to or might not. That and CONCURRENTLY #1 on the V1 Daystreak with the longest streak I have ever seen there. A rider you are -- beyond my own heart!!!
