Here's my 2015 breakdown (I called in to ask):

Nights (BiB): 84
Credit Card: 21
2014 Rollover: 24

So, 129 nights total in 2015

As of today, I have 30 rollover nights and 1 credit card night, with 44 needed to renew platinum (I am LTP anyway). - I assume the CC nights will change when my MR VISA anniversary rolls around in Feb.

I still have yet to receive any PP card nor gift from Marriott (never got mine in 2014, the phone charger/lipstick looking thing, either).
With those numbers I have to believe they've long abandoned the rumored "3% of all PLT's" unless your 84 nights were at some astronomical rate. Sounds like they've watered down that level too. Not that it meant much anyway but it was a good chip to politely use at the Front Desk when doing the upgrade dance and often led to success!
