Answer: The wait room is the website operator’s failsafe to prevent server overload when visitor traffic spikes. It is rarely encountered except during the initial minutes upon attendee housing start as visitors click Request Room buttons in irregular intervals.
If you land in the wait room after clicking your Request Room button, do nothing! Wait there until you’re redirected to the housing portal home page. Navigating backward or refreshing your browser may move you to the end of the wait room queue or cause your browser to freeze. Trust the wait room to preserve your place in the queue to the housing portal.
