This is a really good tip! I was already thinking of doing another tier point run whilst gold but actually, is that a waste? Just running my maths past you:

currently silver. Year ends 8 Nov 2018
will turn gold in August, which means I’ll be trying to retain gold with 1500 points until 8 Nov 2019
If I do, I’ll extend gold until 8 Nov 2020
if I don’t, I’ll drop down to silver until 8 Nov 2020. But if I book a run as silver for 9 Nov 2019 (example you’ve used for 7 days) and turn gold by mid-Nov, does that mean I’ll be covered until 8 Nov 2021?
