If You Did Not Receive an Offer
... And then there are a number of people who (as in every MegaBonus cycle) have not had any version of this promo show up in their account. You can try concating Marriott to fix that (and an interactive method such as a phone call may be more likely to succeed than a non-interactive method like email).

Once You Get a MegaBonus
... Once you call or email Marriott and are given a MegaBonus, it will take several days to show in your account. Be patient.

If Your Were Granted a Change to Your MegaBonus Offer
... Your old MegaBonus offer will continue to show on the Marriott site. The agent you spoke to noted your account and will usually make the adjustment about a week after the MegaBonus period ends. If the adjustment is not made by then, call Marriott Rewards and they will adjust it manually for you.

I got this one too. It strikes me as a easy promo for anyone who will be staying a full work week in a higher-cost property -- just do a 1-night, cheap mattress run before hand!

Yep I am 100% confirmed on it. Just checked again and it still states it. Perhaps I should go radio silent as maybe it is a glitch. Either way just screenshot the promo just in case they don't honor once promo finishes since seems like I am the only one who received it.

Did anyone else get 6? Can someone who did grab a screenshot?

Can you please copy and paste the full wording of your promo? It might be interesting to see if anything else in the wording is different from other promos besides the amount. For example, does it repeat the maximum bonus amount three times, does it show the same registration date and promo start and end dates, etc, etc?

(Before you seem to have only posted the one-sentence summary.)

For example, my "full" one (after clicking "See Details) to expand it) is:
Live your adventure with up to 45,000 bonus points.
See Details

Your story will be the thrill of the season — and rewards will get you there.

To earn up to 45,000 bonus points:
  • Register by November 15, 2015
  • Stay at participating properties between September 15, 2015 and January 15, 2016
  • Earn 25,000 bonus points after 20 paid nights + 2,000 bonus points after each additional night, up to 45,000 bonus points

Which offer did you get? Not clear from your post.

As for dank's good fortune...I kind of feel like we should leave it alone and just envy him from afar. :-) Too much digging could ruin it for him.

I was given #4. There's no way i can do that in two months. I normally have <5 paid stays a year with Marriott.

I do remember in the past there has been an offer or two that nobody is able to change to. If I recall, there was a 3k point offer per stay, but most only received the 2k offer. I know I tried to get the 3k, but they claimed the 2k offer was the best...

Will the stay from 14/9-16/9 counts as the "first stay"? Thanks
