Automated random lottery for event signups

As with typical events, we have more people interested than we can accommodate. But we don’t want people to sign-up just as the registration opens (first come first serve) because that’s unfair to folks who are busy at that time. So it’s better to have a lottery where after close of registration, people are chosen randomly and others placed in the waitlist. We currently do that manually (which is laborious). Built-in automation would be more than awesome!
