Well, it's sort of "blonde" math.........
No, what I really meant was that I rarely am anywhere for just one night - so I would end up qualifying on stays.
Which seems to be kind of like nights. Only less needed, because they are more. Or something like that.
I actually am really happy to read from William that SPG calculates it for you because as all can see from this thread, I certainly am incapable of it!
And
cheapelite, I did read the thread you recommended - and the original posts were GREAT - but have to admit that I kind of umm, got lost once the discussion turned to which European hotels would keep your luggage while you went elsewhere and whether a non-guest SPG elite could use a gym at a property that had a gym.
So, I thought I would just ask. Throwing myself on responding poster's mercy that I would not be flamed. None of you have - which is very nice.
