I had all three. Then the unexpected disappeared. It reappeared this morning. Now it is gone.

Mine was there, then it wasn't, then it was, but now it's not.

Very unexpected. I would like to know if anyone gets offer #6 so I can keep the historical thread accurate. With currently 4 stays and only 9 nights planned, I think one of the others will be better for us.

Yesterday I signed up for the 'Escape the Everyday' 5k for Springhill Suites and that does show in my "you're registered" list. Last night I saw the 25k + 10k promo in the Promo Central, decided I was going to call the next day (today) to see if I could change it to the 3 1-4 Cat (meaning I did not sign up for it right then and there), went in there today and it is completely gone.
I assume (or hope) MR is working out the algorithm as to who gets what and don't have it quite right yet

I'm a silver with a temporary gold upgrade for the 2Q.
I didn't have a MegaBonus and Unexpected Bonus show up under new promotions when I checked today. I did have something called "More relaxing, more rewarding". This offer was 10,000 bonus pts after three stays - with a deadline of July 31.
Don't know if I got this in place of the standard Megabonus. My travel / stays are probably down a bit since last year so maybe they are trying to get me back.

I could not see anything in my account either, logging in at .de .co.uk and .com being based in Germany with currently not stays ytd.
In the past, one variation of the promotion was only available outside the US and thus it was not visible if you log in using .com but it was visible when loging in using the .de or .co.uk page.

Nothing there. Just 'No new promotions.' in Japan.

#4 showed up and I'm registered.
May 15 - Sept 1. I am scheduled for a stay on May 11-18. Will the last 4 nights count towards the bonus?

Saw mine!
I got the stay two times get 1 for cat 1 to 5 hotel. Max 2.
Really wasn't expecting that as I am Platinum! Think I would be able to change this as I def have over 25 nights before Sept.
