Have a Google doc that you can say yes or no to, but if I have to read 150 emails I'm going to lose it, especially if I'm not going. Include a list if you want, but don't include everyone's email addresses. Some people don't want these out to others. Some have only given their work email, and don't want that broadcast to 100 people.

Work ones are the worst for these, because everyone feels the need to reply all. Just set up an Outlook meeting and people can respond yes or no. Whatever the answer is, the whole office doesn't need to know. I don't need to see you tell the whole office "that's too bad" when Sally can't make the party. Sally doesn't like you, so stop trying. If you can't go, just hit the no button, or reply with no to the one person. No one is changing their plans because you're not going.

Yeah, I usually use Facebook to organize parties now. Everyone is in the loop and there aren't any emails flying around.
