Either the world as we know it has ended or the online reservation system is broken. Just looked at BWV for Nov 23-30, 2015, and thus 11 months out from today, December 23. BWV standard and boardwalk view are still open but pool/garden view, all room sizes, is shown as gone for multiple nights,
 
Maybe they just hadn't loaded all the inventory just yet? It sounds as if the two most popular views (standard and boardwalk) were loaded first as a "priority" with the pool/garden view lagging in distant 3rd place? I'm sure the nights weren't reserved first -- just a 'possibly not loaded' situation. (This happens frequently in my other points-based timeshare when trying to book right at the leading-edge of the reservation window.)
 
What I find most interesting is that 11/24 is sold out, but 11/23 still has availability for that Garden/Pool view. It shouldn't be possible for a room past the 11-month mark to be sold out if the first day is still available. There's definitely something strange going on there.
 
I just tried to get in and it says they are performing maintenance.
 

I had just replied to a poster that was complaining about no availability at BWV in the 1BR preferred category and noticed that same issue. Hopefully DVC gets it fixed soon.
 
Cpoied this from the Log-in Screen:

Pool/Garden view is now showing available for that entire week. I'd say it was a glitch and that it was fixed.
 
The Availability Tool is still broken. Searching returns everything as available but when you click on individual rooms, the calendar shows dates unavailable.

I just checked it and it's showing all nights available for studios & 1 bedrooms except for a standard view studio.

Ive been using the availability tool since it started and I had no idea you could click on the individual rooms until I read your post- love it! The things you learn on the dis!!
