Thanks for the replies. Appreciate it.
I'm not too concerned about getting a freebee (though nice

). I'm more concerned with showing up at LAX and having them say "sorry, no payment, no flights.." and forced to pay a higher rate.
UA.com did exactly what exerda said, gave me an error. I went to my Itin and saw it there, called UA the next day since it still wasn't ticketed, lady on the phone then ticketed it where it currently shows as being ticketed.
Currently it shows as being ticketed.... so I guess it's still all good.
Thanks again. Followup question, can I change seats on UA.bomb? (ugh, what a site, btw).
ps, i'm a former NW flyer but they've cut their dirty southwest stuff out way too much so I'm migrating to UA... welcome to UA.bom
