Thanks!

It looks like (on the T&C on Marriott), it's 1 mile per $1 spent and 3 points per $1 spent on rooms for the event (15K mile max / 50K point max). We're probably getting ~40 room nights, somewhere around $125 a night. Considering I have no Marriott relationship, if this is the case, 5K miles > 15K points, yes?
