Re: Marriott Going to a Point System (by Gregory B.):

thomasn15 has it right. Another point to consider: In addition to Interval International receiving fewer trading opportunities from Marriott owners, Interval International will now receive zero weeks from MVCI itself (all the unsold inventory and owner weeks cashed-in for Marriott Reward Points). This will have the biggest impact on the ability to trade.

Like I said before, Marriott is looking out for Marriott here. This new points system will be about Marriott retaining control and Marriott increasing its revenue opportunities. You should not expect that existing owner satisfaction will be a high priority for this initiative.
