A Single-Table Tea with No Unassigned Guests
This is an invented planning exercise, not a customer event or testimonial.
Background and constraints
A fictional five-person tea uses one round table with six usable places. The host wants a compact printout and an accurate guest count.

Planning process
The organizer enters five names and generates one six-seat table. The result assigns every guest and leaves one unused place. The host keeps the extra place available rather than adding a fictitious participant or assuming it must be filled with props.
Result explanation
The important checks are that all five names appear exactly once and Unassigned is empty. The configured spare seat is a planning allowance, not an instruction to add another guest or reduce circulation space.
Alternative
Use a five-place configuration if the actual table supports only five comfortable places. Keep the software capacity aligned with usable seating rather than nominal chair count.
Execution notes
Check serving space and movement around the table. Printed table membership does not specify a physically measured floor plan.
