Straight from the status challenge page --

"Through this offer, you may maintain the same or lower Medallion status level as your matched status. If you are matched to Silver Medallion status, you will not be able to earn Gold Medallion status through this offer, even if you will fly more than 16,000 MQMs or 20 MQSs during the offer period. But if you have been matched to Gold Medallion status and you only fly 8,000 MQMs or 10 MQSs, you will earn Silver Medallion status. Your Medallion status will be returned to non-Medallion status if you are unable to complete the minimum flight requirement within the 90-day period."
