No, not yet. But there are a few of us who have had their first 2 stays posts successfully between 3-5 days ago, and are still waiting. Round 2 registration is supposed to be automatic for everyone, but as most people here probably expected the "2-3 day" processing time is not proving to be accurate.

It most certainly will take at least week between posting of the first two stays and the determination and posting of the subsequent promotion, if not longer.

on what basis are you suggesting this? And why on earth would it take a week to match a consumer profile with an offer?

I wonder how much of this and things like it (FNA deposit, etc) involves a manual database pull by a human.
Because even if it's a daily batch process there's no reason that can't run on weekends. (Setting aside the fact that this could be done in a more modern way with event streams/triggers)

why do you think they assign lurkers to these forums, to close the loopholes and increase profits of course!

If anyone is surprised that Marriott IT is proving unable to handle the promotion, please raise your hand!

Just to try and make sense of what’s happening with this promo, it would be useful if anyone receiving their unlock offer consider posting these data points :
Date of checkout of 2nd stay
Date the 2nd stay posted
Date unlock offer received
Current status and nights YTD
The unlock offer received
Date of checkout of 2nd stay
Date the 2nd stay posted
Date unlock offer received
Current status and nights YTD
The unlock offer received

Got mine
Stay six times, get 15K points. Better than a poke in the eye, I guess.
