Marriott sent out emails a couple months ago to several people in which they lowered the amount of nights needed for certain people to keep their status. For me, i had 22 nights then, it required only 14 more nights to keep my gold making it a total of 36 nights needed. I believe the nights need to be paid nights.
I believe it may have been to entice people to spend more nights after the no promo summer and many switched to another brand.
