[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just be specific in your instructions.

Meeting time is at 6:45 pm at very very specific location. 
Tickets will be distributed promptly at 7:00 pm.
Absolute last call is 7:15 pm.
Apologies that we will not be able to hold tickets after that.

See you at 6:45![/quote]

Strong disagree. This is confusing, can't be skimmed, and plenty of people are going to show up at 7:20 and say they were only five minutes late?!? The people who are most likely to be running late are also the people most likely to latch on to the last time listed.

You say "We are meeting at 7pm (or whatever time). Please be prompt!! Once we go in, we have no way to get you your ticket and you will NOT be able to attend."

Start distributing tickets immediately. I would assume everyone will be there by 7:30pm (30 min grace period). But I would take into account other factors - if there's public transit involved, if people are traveling very long distances (2+ hrs), if people are from out of town, if the parking situation is annoying/stressful, then plan for more.

You should assume that someone will be SUPER late, and are not going to be able to attend. If you really need 100% attendance, plan to stand outside until 8pm. [/quote]
