I have just added a modification to the site that is pretty cool for the 1st Tee forum (I've only enabled it there for now). It's an event registration modification.
Instead of doing this silly cutting and pasting of a list of names who are going to play in an event, we can just register via this poll-like function.
The author of a thread starts it from the initial post by checking activate in the "Add a Registration" area of the posting page below the poll area. And then fills in the relevant fields for registration.

Clicking on the participate button, registers your name for the event. Clicking it again confirms your participation.
If you click any other option, your status will change.
You can also say if you are definitely out. And there is even a "pencil" (maybe) button for jarro.

-------------------------
The thread title should show a current status of how many are in or out, eg. 5-3-2 is 5 in, 3 maybes, 2 nos. There is also meant to be a dot next to the title which indicates your current status for the event (green/blue/red).

-------------------------
The downside is that it won't be able to accept registrations from non-OZgolf members. Oh well, it's more motivation for them to join.
Hope you find this function handy.
Cheers
