You can pay for part of someone's stay, for them to book through your account. I know some platinums were paying $40 per paid night booked through their account.

Are you doing a challenge? If not, award nights count for status with SPG. Correct me, if I'm wrong.

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

The offers I saw were from platinum members trying to retain status. Being that your gold, you may need to pay more. The offers were posted in the spg thread.

Award nights count unless youre on a challenge.
