LX41 from PE to C - Cleared 23h before departure during OLCI

Let's see when the waitlist spot will materialize.

Question - If I keep on bugging M&M every few days is there a way for them to push it through the waitlist? Any tips & tricks or the system will only open it up few days to few hours from departure?

Following up on the story - the upgrade from PE(N) to C cleared ~23 hours before departure during OLCI. Was able to pick a throne seat free of charge (not sure because of SEN status or that it is free during OLCI)
Load at the time of OLCI: F0 A0 J5 C5 D5 Z5 P4 G6 E6 N4
Later in the day all cabins completely sold out.

Great news before 11h flight, slept like a baby. But service and offering wise it was really underwhelming, especially considering it's LX not LH.
I feel that apart from the lie-flat and more space, there was very little to no difference between my flight in PE on OS week earlier. Service wise, PE on OS was truly above and beyond compared to C on LX. But let me save that for another post, got some photo material to share as well, probably will share feedback with LX too.
