I prefer booking my calendar and signing up early. Done and dusted. It also helps the host, especially someone hosting during the holiday season, and as a judge once told me, the holidaze start on Halloween.
You are right there are always cancellations, especially 24-48 hours prior and I think the waitlist works great in those situations as long as the folks cancelling publicly post so that the waitlisted can make it or decline.
We have almost always been able to accommodate folks off of the waitlist this year.
