Correct. I am moving them off the waitlist. Often I'm cherry picking one attendee at a time.
There are times when I'll send an email to all those on a session waitlist for them to modify their registration. Then its first come, first served.
Classic is not very mobile friendly when it comes to modifying registrations, so I find myself doing it for attendees.
Back to the questions. If I knew some of the session answers, that would determine who gets moved off the waitlist.
Plus reduce the exchange of emails I need to get answers.

To confirm, are you registering them yourself into the sessions when a space becomes available?
If so, I'm not sure how you could mandate a response. I would imagine you'd need to confirm through email communication or you'd have to make the question and admission item.
For our waitlisted attendees (at session level) the attendee has to re-enter the registration and confirm their session selection. At that time, they are prompted to answer the session question. Haven't had much of an issue in retrieving answers to session questions, but process-wise it did take us a little bit of work to get the Session Waitlist email wording into an easily understood set of instruction.

Subject: Session questions for waitlisted
I have wait lists for sessions. Several sessions have session questions.
If someone is waitlisted, the questions are not available.
Then when I move someone off the waitlist, I need them to go back and answer questions.
You know how that goes.
Plus, session question answers may determine who I move off the waitlist.
Does it make sense to have attendees answer questions, even if they are waitlisted?
I think it does. Curious if anyone else does.
Discuss.
