I'll add my data point:
Got 10,000 MQMs today. Am FO on DL and GE on NW. No DL or NW credit cards of any kind. No MQMs earned this year on DL. Linked the accounts months ago. Have flown DL & NW, but am accumulating miles in WP account. No additional postings to the WP account. Renewed my "SkyClub" membership last month.

I'm DL Silver & NW Gold; no DL/NW cards; very few DL MQMs this year (2 segs, < 2000 MQMs) because I've been crediting my DL flights to NW
Key Differences: not a Skyclub member; DL and NW accounts are NOT linked for me (different e-mail and mailing addresses too).
DL also targeted me for the 10K/100K RDM bonus.

Holy Crap Monkey Butt I got my 10k
Medallion® Qualification Miles (Year to date): 37193
Medallion® Qualification Segments (Year to date): 15
If this is because of the new 4th teir as some suggested, I get the feeling to become Silver in the future you will need 35K or something.
What is interesting my MQM miles aren't counting toward my total miles just my MQM miles.
No Amex Card have been Silver since Last year, only flying with Delta for 1 year 6 months now.

I got 10K too, weird. I'm GM/60k MQM/Delta Options card and Delta Platinum Amex. I was wearing my 3 Wolf Moon t-shirt at the time too so not sure if that has anything to do with it. Oh well, I'll take it!

First post!
I woke up, checked yesterday's flight to CMH and saw "9M GIFT MQM 10" 10K miles and immediately headed here to see what was up. I'll add a datapoint:
DL Silver, NW General: linked accounts months ago, transferred miles to DL
Medallion® Qualification Miles (Year to date): 46606
Medallion® Qualification Segments (Year to date): 5
Skymiles Platinum Amex, Worldperks Visa Signature
My first thought was just yesterday I sent DL a strong email about the dismal ontime record of the JFK-LHR route, but I guess that's not it.
Travel safe, everyone!

Wow,
I woke up, checked my account and could not believe my eyes so I came over here to see what was going on. Just read the whole thread and I think I am the only one that received 15,000 MQM .......Enough to requalify at Platinum (I would have made it anyway though.) I can't believe that I received more than anyone else thus far!
BTW
I am currently Platinum
Delta Reserve
I was a little over 60K MQMs for the year

15K for me too. No idea why, but helps with the status for next year.

15K here, which is the last thing I need. I'm over 200K YTD without them. I hope this means the bar for the forth tier will be set quite high.

5K MQM for this 3 time Plat with an AMEX Platinum Card and Delta SkyMiles AMEX Platinum Card. This is making hitting the 4th tier quite doable.

My wife and I both got 5, plus about 9 more each for the "up to triple." Then my wife got 15 more for hitting the first spending level on the Biz Reserve card. The MQM totals are shooting up like a pinball machine gone beserk.
