Is the option no longer available to replace an existing reservation with a waitlist? It would be all for all, but it seems no replacing of anything is offered anymore.

Hmmm. I just used it the other day when I waitlisted for a BWV studio (P/G for a BW view). I used the mobile website on my phone using Chrome.
 
I went through (the website) and made another one. Nowhere does it give the option of "replacing existing reservation" like the old site did. It still has the option to borrow points from future contract allotment, but won't replace one reservation for another (in points, at a different local).
 
I just went in and it does show the option to replace my existing reservations (in between Waitlist Expiration and Authorization to Borrow Points).

I guess I should add that right below where I cut off is where it gave the option to replace a reservation and it listed my current reservations (which is why I cut it off there).

I went onto my laptop and I still see the ability to set up a waitlist that replaces an existing reservation. It's located just below where you choose the waitlist expiration 31 days or 7) and just above where you authorize borrowing.

I just set up a new waitlist last night and the option was there. It lists out all my existing reservations and then you can select which you would want it to replace if that's what you want.
 
So, I actually IM'd about this, and they told me that you had to have a reservation made first, and then submit your wait list request. If you submit your waitlist request first, the check box to replace existing reservation doesn't show up. Being a new owner, I never used the waitlist, so I wasn't sure if I should reserve first or just trust that I would get the waitlist. After reading the message boards i figured I should probably back up my waitlist request with an actual reservation.
