That was pretty much how we used to handle it also. It is not fair to charge the teams for more than the number of officials they get. So because the other official failed to show, (and there were NO exceptions or awards for the best excuses), they were fined the amount of that game fee which was used to pay the first official his pay for double duty, double fee.
At the begining of each season each official was instructed on this. You were committed once you submitted your availabilty. Last minute changes within 3 hours of gametime, could only be made and accepted by the assignor.
