I didn't get any e-mails for either round. Should I be getting e-mails saying I'm on the waitlist?

Yes (presuming that you ticked the box that requested the waitlist when you filled out the lottery form). I believe that the deadline to hear about the waitlist is tomorrow.

I did tick that box. This is confusing and a little frustrating.

Ugh. I definitely marked that I would like to be included on the waitlist, but have not yet received anything and I did check my spam folder.

I didn't get access to the hotel request list until probably 9:08-9:09 or so. Does everyone who requests get put on the waitlist and receive notification, or was I so late to the request list that I am completely out of luck?

I believe that everyone who didn't get allocated a hotel is notified....?  But then, onPeak is very flaky.

Thank you, Jun.

Still nothing. From what I have seen online, there are quite a number of folks who are not receiving waitlist emails from OnPeak as expected. So frustrating!

Thank you to everyone who submitted their results to this poll! I used them to create an analysis of overall lottery results. You can read the analysis here.

Great write up - thank you for sharing!

It also reinforces just how lousy my luck has been with Hotelpocalypse. Entry after 9:09! No email in either Wave 1 or Wave 2! No email for the waitlist!

However, I've had good luck and gotten a room at my first choice (admittedly, not a popular first choice) through other means every year.  :)

This is the advantage with sites like this. When things are randomized, there will be years where you are lucky and years where you are unlucky. However, as a group, those who are lucky can help out those who are unlucky. We're really all just each others' big safety net. ;)

Thanks for all your hard work!!
And I always said that 9:02 (which has been my time in all but 2 lotteries) is cursed! But on the bright side we get a waitlist email (well some do but that's for another day).

Yep, I was writing how everyone got a waitlist email, then realized the mess that went on yesterday, and put in a qualifier... ;)
