Properties that get used to customer-unfriendly shenanigans tend to continue with customer-unfriendly shenanigans even when there is a decline in demand/numbers of those with top-tier status. Once a party or person has gone cheap and remained so during boom times, the “cheapness” gets embedded in their nature such that it doesn’t disappear all that easily in bust times.

Could easily exceed 120 this year, but changing focus to another brand due to poor promotions.

Did some more calculations - by mid-August, I'll be at 51. At 43 right now with 9 booked (7 on points, 2 paid).
Seems like Globalist will be very likely as only 9 more will be needed.

Currently in a holding pattern at 69, got there faster than expected, could do well over 100, planning 79 by end of September, delaying 80, 90 and 100 (staying elsewhere) until after Oct 2nd to extend expiration date (by 1 year) of Milestone TSUs.

After being worried about not getting to 60 nights, put some CC spend and just hit 58 nights, and have a 2 night stay in November. Just barely gonna make it, but will make it. Hooray

Currently at 49 nights. Have 2 nights booked at an MGM this weekend, 4 nights each of the next 3 weeks, and another weekend night at the beginning of October, so 64 easy, probably more by the end of the year.

Just hit 34 nights last weekend. This means I'll likely hit 40 this year but barring some major change in travel, no chance at coming back to Globalist.
