Will bonus stays earned through the double stay credit promotion count towards this promotion (e.g. physically stay at participating properties 4 times, but earn a total of 8 stay credits thereby earning 4 free nights)?

William,
Apologies if I come across as being pedantic (but that is the nature of deciphering T&C's) . . .
I don't think that you have answered my exact question . . .I guess part of the problem is there are three confusingly similar questions:
1) Can I do this along with the double stay credit promotion? To which you have answered "Yes".
2) Will I get twice as many free nights if I do this during the double stay promotion (e.g. I stay 7 times, which would normally earn me 4 free nights and I get 8)? To which you have answered "No".
3) Will combining the double stay promotion allow me to accelerate my earnings in the LM promotion - e.g. if I stay at an LM on 1/1, 1/8, 1/15, and 1/22 which earns 8 stay credits at LM properties so I earn four free nights (as 4 nights is the reward for 7 stays) as opposed to only one free night (the reward for 3 stays)?
I'm not sure that you answered this last one.

...double stays/nights is not going to double the number of free nights you would earn from this promotion.

Still wondering when the consumption of these free nights will be??? March 09would make one very enticing promo.
If it is March 08 it cheapens this promo quite a bit,and I loose alot of interest in it.
Realisticly summertime as a deadline would be great.

Well, let's keep our fingers crossed that this is really the case. That's what I was told, but I'd like to see it in print on a wider scale soon.

I was confirmed by SPG that it is only until 30 June 2008 (this date seems more possible to me)... You may wish to check this...

The last date to redeem will be March 31, 2009, as I was told originally. The T&C's will be updated shortly to reflect this, but right now there is a freeze on changing any web content.So, to re-cap: You can earn the free nights up until 31st March 2008, but you have up until March 31, 2009 to utilize the free nights you earn.

Well, as it turns out, they were wrong. The last date to redeem will be March 31, 2009, as I was told originally. The T&C's will be updated shortly to reflect this, but right now there is a freeze on changing any web content.
So, to re-cap: You can earn the free nights up until 31st March 2008, but you have up until March 31, 2009 to utilize the free nights you earn.
