If you've followed the PP thread(s), there is no finite line you must cross to get PP status. MR has stated it represents the top 3% of MR members, but they don't say what 3%. Is it nights, stays, spend, # of MR executives that you know? And it may include more than just one year of activity. Plus being a %, all it takes is one person to get one point more than you and you can be eliminated. PP is for the brass ring chasers, it pretty much means nothing in reality and you're lucky if any of the properties know it exists let alone higher than regular P status.
