10k for 10 nights... not really competitive although nobody has great bonuses for Q1 so far. $8/night isn't going to sway me very much, especially if I have to do 10 nights to collect.
It's too bad, because I really like redeeming Marriott points for Cat 2 airport properties and getting $75 worth of relative value instead of paying $100+ or having to mess around with Priceline zone bidding. That fills a nice niche in my points portfolio.
Q1 may be the quarter where I finally try out Carlson.
