kind of off topic- buy any idea how to somehow acquire gold status with UA via match or some other method if I don't have status with another airline. Is getting Delta gold from a diamond the only way?

or from a cc, or somehow creatively making UA think you do have Delta Gold.

A bit OT perhaps:

My parents are flying DL in a few hours.

Can I add my FB Gold FF# to their RSVP to get them the excess baggage allowance? (read: will it work without issue)

Unless they have exactly the same name as you, it won't work.

I found that it worked for a family member that had the same initial and same last name, but not for other family members.

 Interestingly, the one that had the same first initial, also had the same last letter of her first name. The miles credited as well.
