So.....? How would you do it differently?

Let everyone know in the emails that you will start at a certain time. If anyone isn't there at that time, their hands will be dealt and folded, along with any blinds/antes.
Anyone not arriving an hour after start time will have their remaining chips removed from the table.
I used to do the whole chasing people down stuff as well, constantly calling people right before the event to ensure they were indeed coming. But over time the popularity of my events has helped to reduce those issues. I've got over 100 email contacts for my events, so finding players usually isn't a problem (if you don't mind allowing newer strangers into your events)
But require people to RSVP for a seat if they want to play. And if they don't RSVP, then they can't play, simple as that.
