If I do this for both programs within the 2018 calendar year, can this count towards two distinct years for LTPP?"
My Ambassador distinctly answered "yes" on this and I thought there were other "official" sources confirming it as well...much like past years, where if you qualified separately for SPG and MR Platinum (thus getting two LT Plat years), you can also do so this year. THUS why I and others posit that legacy MR Plat year this year will be 75 nights.

Assuming the Lurker will definitively answer at some point - I'm prepared to do three meetings regardless
