One other thing, when I SDC do I earn mileage based on the original fare class or the new fare class?
Your ticketed fare class doesn't change with an SDC, so you earn based on your originally purchased fare class. You should get added to the upgrade list as for any booked flight and are eligible for upgrades that don't earn you any more EQM or RDM but give you a nicer seat and maybe better food.
