When will the cavalcade of 10ks end? It's an embarassment of riches, but I ain't complainin'!

I got the stay 8, get 10k also. This is my very first targeted promotion(they must have heard my need for love). The targets absolutely must have to correlate with the business that you bring to IHG. I have been a multi year member but never stayed more than 2 nights a year until this year, with 30+ nights.

Hi
Not sure about it going to people who have stayed a lot of nights in HIs etc. I have 51 nights so far this year (not including my main holiday which was 16 nights).
Another mystery of PC

Does anyone know if you can flip-flop between MILES and POINTS??
For example: (in regards to new 10K promos)
For stays 1 & 2 be enrolled in MILES
For stay 3 POINTS
For stay 4 MILES........etc, etc.
My rates are low for my stays and Miles is more productive if my rate is not in a point/stay promotion. Currently enrolled in the 2X Miles promotion....
ANyone know??
Thanks to everyone for the promo codes......I owe you a drink onboard UA.

I'm certainly not complaining - the 5 nights I've got booked in BKK will get me 20k alone, then a 3 night mattress-run somewhere for another 30k!

That is what I did with the last round (i.e. that current one that is about to end), some with the link changed, the rest as I describe above, and got every single 10k that I reached (up to and including 15 nights).

3 nights = A
5 nights = B
6 nights = C
...
With this it is obvious that there is no 4 nights bonus, but I thought it is also important to change that letter in the link to make it work. But as Aisle Seat H said, it worked for him without doing so.

Hi
Have you guys received confirmation emails for all your registrations? I got one for the first code I registered (5 nights) but none of the others. However, when I tried to re-register I'm told I am already enrolled in the other promos...
Cheers

so did i, for each one.
And on all this guys, yes it works that way, but I have found that it is a far too unnecessarily complicated way to do it - by far the easiest (and most reliable) way to enter all the promos is to manually enter the 4 digit code into the box on the generic registration page.
And as I said, it is very easy to get to such a generic registration page - simply click on ANY code promo link in this Thread and click on 'Register'. Once you press register for a 2nd time/if you are already registered you will get a message saying 'You are already registered...', but you will now notice that by 'Promotion Code' there is now an empty box - simply type the relevant code number in it, and you are guaranteed to be properly submitting your registration, without having to play around with URLs. You can then press back, enter each code, and you are registered for all of them in double quick time.

Airline Miles?
OK, I got the offer for 3 nights and 10K points in my e-mail. Of course, in accordance with the rules I will only be registering for this one... 
However, let's say hypothetically I got the one for 6 nights and I had 4 stays scheduled with 4 nights, 1, night, 1 night, and 1 night respectively. I had originally planned to switch my earnings preference to SWA RR credits after the 4 nights stay to take advantage of the doubles credits for the 1-night stays. How would this affect the 10K points bonus?
I think someone (Clipperclub?) asked a similar question earlier, but I didn't see that anyone had responded - sorry if I missed it...
Thanks!

don't do it!
indyscott, Just a little FT ICH wisdom: I would recommend that you DON'T register for both! I and many others on this board have found that when you do (I have anecdotal evidence to support in my case) you are more likely to NOT GET ANYTHING than get both or something at all! 
There is something about the codes that we here have noticed than when people register for both codes simultaneously you most likely get nothing. Happened to me. I would pick which is more important to you and then go from there.
