It's silly to start such a thread now, even if it's an attempt to be silly.

Is there a need to be a Thread Starter?

Zurich,
I to am wondering what the Q4 promo will be. I have maxed this promo out and am ready for the next one. I will wait (not so) patiently.^

ClubLounger,
Don't be so tough, there's always a speculation thread, even if it gets us nowhere.

Once again, there won't be a Q4 promo, it'll be a promo bridging part of Q3 and part of Q4. Why the constant naming of promos by Q's in a hotel program that doesn't align its promos to calendar quarters???

Ie, it'll be a fall promo.

So you think there will be a 9/23-12/22 promotion, Mr. Pot?

Because it's how we do things and always have done things. Lots of things in this world aren't pedantically correct - there aren't 24 hours in an astronomical day. There aren't 365 days in a year. I could go on and on.

Why the need to change what everyone accepts?

It's a quadruple stay promo, every stay counts as 4 so that every Tom, Dick and Harry can be a Platinum and the front desk can easily say "no suites, we're full of plats tonight".

Because not everyone accepts such a misnomer. The quarterly nomenclature is a Hilton thing.

That's quite enough silliness for one thread, thank you.

Yeah but Zurich already asked what that promo was going to be and didn't get an answer, so now he's looking to Q4.


Now for continued crazy answers like "I think it will be stay once and get $1,000,000 gift card"
