Best time for a Platinum challenge
Last week I signed up for a Platinum challenge, which requires me to score the minimum nights by 31JAN16. If I meet that requirement, until when will my Platinum status be valid?
If it is only until FEB18, am I allowed to withdraw from the Challenge and file again sometime in FEB 2017? Would that give me a longer validity for a Platinum status obtained through a challenge?
Does Marriott allow more than one challenge in a life time?

Do you know what year it is? It would be extraordinary for a status challenge to allow you more than fifteen months to meet the criteria for continued status. Also, normally a status challenge would not offer you more than two full years of the status (if you were to meet the requirements very soon).

The typo has been corrected; thanks for pointing it out.
