It's there, Ralph, under Priority Club Rewards / Ambassador. We need to change the name to IHG Rewards Club / Ambassador.

Am I missing the Club Carlson benefit of the free night when using points when you have their credit card?

The benefits that came out of the December polls are in the ballot, and that is not one of them.

Banner headline on forum homepage gives confusing closing date. Makes reference to Tuesday February 2. It should be February 3 according to the rules. February 2 is a Monday

Can the sitewide announcement be changed to specify when voting ends, i.e., in an hour or two? I had understood the announcement to imply that voting would be open through the end of today.

ADDED: The deadline stated when you click through to the ballot and read its instructions is 1:00 pm Pacific time TODAY.

By the time stamp on this message, voting closed about an hour earlier than the stated deadline of 1:00 Pacific time unless the announcement really meant PST rather than PDT (which is the time used now in California). IMO it's an odd way to state the time since most people would assume that 1 pm in the local time of IB is what was meant.
