the # of Cat 4's will likely change in Feb as catagorys are re-adjusted however, resees made at existing Cat 4s which go up are honored......

no............cert nights do NOT count towards elite nights (like other brands like SPG do)...........

Still haven't received my promo offer. I could speculate why others have their offers I don't - I maxed out the last several times, I'm about to get a short-cut to 2013 Gold status via heavy use Marriott brands Oct - Dec. Would that by why? I really think that "customizing" these offers, in the long run, is a bad idea unless their best customers get better offers as soon as they are posted. I don't get it.

Nobody knows why some people don't get bonus offers in their new promotions automatically, and why some come later that others. It seems to be an IT issue. Marriott employees have stated that it is Marriott's intent that all members get a bonus offer during each Megabonus period. I do not believe that anyone has ever reported calling and being told they aren't getting any MB offer. Sometimes they don't like what they get, but everyone gets something.

I didn't even have to register - it showed up as registered automatically in my Promotions list (35000/50000). I basically lived in Marriotts in 2012 though...

But I won't even come close. I'll most likely have 14. Possibly, but highly unlikely, as many as 18. Three Cat-4 certificates are a lot more valuable to me than 35,000 points anyway, and certainly more valuable than zero points.

No details

Anybody else in my situation?
I see the promo in my promotion central but it shows no details.

However, I can register. (and I'm registered)
I'm wondering now for what I've registered.

That would seem to be a new twist. You'll probably have to call MR to get the answer to "for what?"

I'm Lifetime Plat & last couple of years it's been the norm for the MegaBonus not to show up in my Promotion Central, which then requires a call to MRCS to find out if I even have one. I do & they tell me what it is, but it's irritating that I have to call each time.

Cheers.

+1 (except I've been Plat for years, and hopefully about to become LT Plat)
