9 stays isn't a problem by the end of the year, especially with fall promo, but status until 2014 would be much nicer - albeit with a mattress run or two required

Also - I am nowhere near re-qualifying for Gold this year so I really could use some sort of status going forward

Cheers

Be sure to confirm when signing up, but I believe it is the same as normal status, it runs through Feb two years after earned. So if you qualify this year, 2012, status will be good until Feb 2014. If you sign up in 2013, status would be good through 2015. I'm not sure what would happen if your 90-day window crosses over Jan 1st.
