Now I have to register + 1, who has no status (and may even have no SPG account) and see what they offer her.

Seems like this offer may be the same across the board. I put in my b/f's # (no stays this year, but did register for FWN promotion) and he received the same choices.

It's also nice to see that different people are choosing different options (though nobody's mentioned the $50 off yet), which I believe makes for a successful "choose your own" promo.
