Also note that as soon as one waitlist request comes thru, all others are cancelled. You can call back and ask to be placed on the waitlist for the resort you didn't get, but you'll be placed at the back of the line. This applies to separate room categories, too.
Let's say that you waitlist for BWV Preferred Garden / Pool View, BWV Preferred BW View and BCV. If the BWV Garden / Pool View becomes available first, the other requests will be cancelled. That dramatically reduces your odds of getting the other room classes.
In waitlisting, you almost need to balance the "I'll take anything I can get" mindset with shooting for the ultimate. Probably the only way to ever get the Preferred BoardWalk View is to make that your ONLY waitlist request. But since it's a hard category to book in the first place it will increase your odds of remaining at OKW.
