This kinda sucks, but if those seats go back into the available inventory, then somebody else (maybe even me) gets to use them.
The bad news is that if you do not make the flight, you have to pay to redeposit the miles.
BUT, you can change to another flight without and surcharge or fees which is a good deal.
