20 nights in 90 days is a high bar for anyone who is unlikely to already have status, and the MGM trick only works if you already have MLife Gold, so I am not sure how many GLOB will result from this. However 10 nights for EXP is a much lower and more attainable goal. I was actually perfectly OK with reverting from GLOB light to EXP this year as it still puts me ahead of the hoards of Chase DISC, but now it appears that being EXP will be even more worthless for the next two years.

Think my money would be better spent on just booking Prive rates for the stays I need, rather throwing away money on a mileage run.
