I am curious to see where the rates go. I do find in some communities the points rate vs. cash seems to have absolutely no reasonable valuation difference, for example Asheveille, NC. However, the program is constantly devalued more and more the question now is how much more value can Marriott extract from the program.

I hope the new list follows soon, it would be nice to know if some properties are moving down. I assume many more will be moving up. Category 8 is way too big.
