Outlook Calendar or Resource Double-bookings - resolving who scheduled first

I have set up the resource scheduling to automatically decline
conflicting meeting requests, but this only seems to work
if you invite the room as a resource. Anyone who
creates a meeting by going into the Conference Room calendar can still
double book.

From another posting on this site, I learned that this sort of thing is
unavoidable except by user education, policy, and assigning a delegate to
'police' the room calendars. I wish this were not true as we want to force
Outlook to refuse to book a meeting in a room when the timing conflicts
with another meeting.

If it is true, then how do you determine, in a double or triple booked
conference room, who scheduled the room first? In properties of the
appointment, I only see the date of the last modification to the
appointment, but I do not see the creation date. Is there a way to see the
creation date?
