Lets say that Marriott allows Roll-Over nights for 2 consecutive years. Lets also say that you have 350 nights the year for the first roll-over. So assuming you never stay in a Marriott again you will have the following lifetime nights after 3 years:

Year 1: 350
Year 2: 275 (assuming a Plat member gets rollovers for over 75 nights)
Year 3: 200 (assuming a Plat member gets rollovers for over 75 nights)

Total lifetime nights: 825 nights (and this doesn't include the possible 15 nights you could still be getting with the Premier Visa.)

This is per the latest updates from Marriott Concierge in the http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/marri...roll-over.html thread stating that Roll-over nights will count just like any other night for the following year.
