You are definitely correct. But the person I requested was a Marriott associate that takes challenge requests on the inside reward Marriott website. I also emailed the Marriott members elite email and they didn't even offer me. So then, I called in and they immediately verified my eligibility and offered me the challenge.

So some agents are clueless what they can offer or they are just too lazy to figure it out.

To help others out, the number I called was Marriott Rewards Members
1-801-468-4000. They will give you the current month + the next 3 months to complete the challenge. Make sure you complete it in January so you can get it extended to 2018.
