<dholbach> rww: I like the former: make it obvious and simple to attend,
and obvious to add guests later on

Bug description:
Signing up for an event is too long and non-obvious.

Currently after going to an event page, you have to click on a 'Register for 
this event' link (not the best wording, how about a call to action "I'm 
coming!"), then go to another page and change your 'attending status' (which is 
a overtly formal and strange way to word that you're going to an event), and 
the options are "attending", "might be attending", "not attending". Saying "My 
attending status is attending" is a convolunted and unfriendly way to say "I'm 
coming". It requires extra mental effort on the users part to figure out that 
they have said "I'm coming".

Also, in order to say that you're not coming, you need to click on the link for 
'register for this event', which one would assume is only used for registering 
for an event.

I suggest something more like Facebook's event's pages. At an event page, there 
should be a link/button that says "I'm coming". Clicking it will sign the user 
up to the event. There should be no interstital page to choose your attendance 
status. As well as a "I'm coming" button/link, it should have a "I might 
attend" and "I'm not going"button/links with similar functionality.
