This is supported by the fact that I made Platinum on 2/11/08. If it was strictly calendar year-based, that would be impossible since there was not enough time for me to spend 75 nights in a Marriott in 2008 as of 2/11.

Just to check.
If you became a Platinum member (or Silver or Gold) on say February 20th 2007, assuming you didn't stay enough nights to maintain it, would you actually be on the same level until 2009 ???
I'm a little confused by some of the comments.
Thanks

You are correct. Your elite level will be valid for the rest of the year that you earned it (even if through the rolling-year cycle), and all of the following year. So if someone achieved Plat elite status on Feb. 20, 2007, then they would be a Plat through February, 2009. (Note that Marriott's elite levels don't expire at the end of a year, but at the end of February the next year.)

Wasn't sure whether I would get another one for the same status, valid until Feb 2009....

You should get another card for this year with an expiration of Feb. 2009.

If DJBLAMIRE is still around - can you update us if this is actually what happened to you?
