Right. That's why I'm not optimistic. It's also why I pushed back, saying that points don't matter so much to me as having the meeting entered into the system so that Marriott will have an accurate account of my activity. I'll raise this again after the meeting.

I believe I've read several times in this thread that the eligibility nights awarded for "Rewarding Events" don't cost the hotel anything. Does anyone know for sure that this is accurate? If so, I will point this out to my hotel contact.
