I have a suggestion for the next tournament. I think, it's better to keep all those who haven't shown up at one table, so that no one could steal their blinds(if it's technically possible, of course). I know it's impossible(and maybe even a bit unfair) to keep going like this infinitely, but I think we can give 30-40 minutes to those who are late without ripping them off.
(Just a thought. Sorry if this is against some major rules.)
