I ended up getting screwed. I was 17 out of 22 on the waitlist and they had 5 seats for upgrade. I was on the waitlist as a 2P, not my actual 1P. the 5 seats went to 1Ps. I found this out after waiting an hour to speak to an agent who re ran my number and re printed my boarding which showed my true status.

Not sure if I would have got the upgraded but all seats were given away by the time I got to the agent.

I hope by Monday's flight it's fixed.
