What you're dealing with here
is crowd inertia. The more people you're dealing with, the less likely it is that anything is going to happen.

Well rather than asking people what date they can/can't do.
Why not post the names of people who can't make particular dates, than way, people will opt to dine with their favourites.

It'll be like the X Factor, but without phone voting.
