Hacknight should have a feature/option to create forms.

For the http://hacknight.in/fifthelephant/2013-visualization hacknight, we had to make a different form on google docs and tell people to submit their responses there. Not only was it a distraction from the hacknight site, but also it was painful to compare the email ids manually and see who all had responded.

So if Hacknight had a form creation option just like google docs, then we could create the form there and direct people towards it. This way the manual comparison of the responded people will not have to be done and the entire scenario stays within hacknight itself.

For a use case like this one, wouldn't it be better to have the ability to extend the form when a user is registering intent to attend the hacknight. Currently that form accepts a couple of basic info fields like 'Why do you want to attend the hacknight?'

Yes, we're working on a Form data type for Eventframe/Nodular that supports custom forms.
