My guess is they're going to do a batch job one time, and doing it in early January to ensure all of 2018 activity is considered as activity up to Dec 31st may be make-or-break for qualifying on both the nights and points. Particularly because someone who qualified under the legacy SPG account and MR account before 08/18 who didn't combine might qualify with two years of plat status within 2018 rather than one by qualifying for plat within each program this year.
