Find your position in a meetup.com waitlist

findMeetupWaitlistPosition.js

// Open the developer console of your favorite browser
// on the page of your favorite meetup where you're on the wailist (grrr)
// and paste this by putting your name
// This will actually compute the position in the waitlist div which seems to correspond to the waitlist position
var findPosition = function(username) { return $("#rsvp-list-waitlist h5").map(function(i, el) {return {"pos": i, "name": $(el).text()}}).filter(function(i, el) {return el["name"].indexOf(username) >= 0;})}
findPosition("my displayed name") // where my displayed name is the name that is displayed for you on the meetup
