Full House
I've just recently started my home game, using a core from a now defunct home game with another host plus some new players. I've been fully booked each game so far, and so end up turning people away/refusing vetted guests. Unfortunately, I've also had several late cancellations as well as a no show, and also someone who took a seat to just play for an hour (didn't bust out or win big and want to bank, just wanted to swing by after work and head home early - like a happy hour).
Ideally, I'd like a full game, and to not turn people away who wanted a seat. How have you all handled our now, what seems to be, flakier human condition? Do you use wait lists? Somehow punish late cancellers (I'm a bit hesitant to do this with the game just starting out, don't want to kill it.) Something else entirely? Torn between seeming draconian or being loose and having games without as much money in play as they should have.
Your advice is much appreciated.
