I don't think my 25 stay for 2018 has lead to +1 year of plat, but I haven't lost my status and its Feb 5th so...
I did get +1 plat year for finally merging accounts in January. I had the multiple accounts with same email and they sent me a warning. Perhaps the account merger code identifies the 25 stays in 2018 condition? I can't say for sure. I assumed the +1 here was from a 2017 year as a matched MR plat merging with my SPG plat history.
