Here is what I am thinking, I can either release the pair and coordinate with everyone on the list that was put together for the time. OR, ask 10c if I can take everyone's name thats on the list of F5ers, put them into a hat and pick. Thoughts?

I would still like to upgrade, but after seeing the list of people still just trying to get in, I feel even worse about it. Yes, I would sell my current tickets, but there's no guarantee that someone on here would get them.

You could just take all of our names and put them in a hat, pick a winner, and walk them in. 

It's a good thought, but the money is the issue. I know we're a trusting group, but if the situation was reversed, I'm not sure if be comfortable sending a stranger $200 with the promise they'd meet me at the show am walk me in. 

I don't need the $200, for the record. I have no problem doing whatever is comfortable, should the group decide the hat is best options. If that is payment at the show, that is perfectly fine. Ive talked to enough people on these forums that anyone can check if you feel uncomfortable that I wouldn't screw anyone, and the tickets would be yours.
@pjnb has met me. I'm sure he could chime in that i'm not going to screw someone like that.

I would vouch for this guy 100%. I think who ever is comfortable with the hat idea should put in for it and whoever is not should opt out. This guarantees someone here gets it.

 Issue is though that he is now in GA so walking in together would be an issue if he wants to go early.

If this was the only show we were going to, is probably be in the same boat, but we have tickets to four shows (another reason upgrading would be nice but isn't a huge priority), all of which require flights & hotels, so another $200 is not nothing. Upgrading would be contingent on me selling my other seats.

I'm also relatively new here, and only know one other poster (and I'm married to her), so it's not necessarily that I don't trust anyone here, more that I'm not sure why they'd trust me.

As saltzy says, gotta put in the work and you'll be rewarded.  F5.  When I get tickets, t-shirts are being made!

I can get the t-shirts, but I need help with designing the back.  I think the front is good.  Perhaps the back has "B-more F5'ers" and a relevant PJ quote.

@sp1984 had a great idea for the back, but I don't remember what it was.
