Except in Japan where SPG was trash and Marriott had lowered SPG property redemption costs. It also helped some properties like RC Tokyo become 10k points less through this year as well.

Platinum I guess? I got Titanium because all existing Marriott Plat members last year got Titanium. Maybe the status will extend till this year because I actually spent 75k. (I didn't do that 10k trick everyone is describing above)
