The post you're replying to was 10/12; but I was on your flight that left yesterday, and landed today with 16 upgrades! - Surprisingly, I was quite a bit ahead of you on the list; and I was X fare... do you not have the DL Reserve card? You're DM right? [edit to correct, this was a purchased ticket, not award, but still X fare]
I though I'd be at the bottom of the barrel for DMs with a lowly X fare (can't get any lower) - I wonder how I possibly trumped you by several spots- and I had all sorts of issues checking in - "can't request upgrade after check-in", "no electronic ticket attached etc." - so it took me hours to check-in for the flight - though I think that is the very last tie-breaker.
