1P status is about all you have going for you...and in this day and age of 1K lites who make status on cheapie fares and fare errors, there are a lot of those and UGS members out there who are "above you" in UA's eyes.

1P status is irrelevant prior to DM. Also, C fare (as oppossed to D fare, which is also eligible) is irrelevant prior to DM. PA vs. PB is the only relevant thing. OP is supposedly first on the PB list, but will get trumped by anybody (as I listed in my OP) on the PA list.
