best, you are certainly anxious ( two topics) to be a gold without having to stay any nights. Can you think of any reason Marriott would want to do this for you, when others are required to stay 50 nights for the same privileges ?</font>
Phil, I have a little exercise that you might find interesting. Do a search under Best's name on this, the Hilton, the Hyatt, and for all I know, the Starwood boards, and see how many times he asks questions abourt various promotions, etc., and then contrast that with the times he actually comes to the assistance of someone else in connection with their request.
The answer will be mind boggling, and why anyone would ever want to answer his questions is well beyond my powers or insight.
Kudos to you!
