Oh, brother, I thought I'd hit every iCal bug, and you've found yet another.
The piece of junk has more bugs than things that work.
Believe it or not, you have to use 'beginning', not 'end', when there are no
attendees as yet:
tell newEvent
make new attendee at beginning of attendees with properties {display
name:"Name Name", email:"email@hidden"}
end tell
--> (works)
After you've got at least one attendee, you can add the others to the end if
you want, or to the beginning. Whichever you do, it actually adds them to
the end in the UI list, so you might as well just stuck with 'beginning' in
a repeat loop and avoid tests and conditional code for whether it has any
attendees yet or not. It's ridiculous.
